The repertoire of Tyler Civic Ballet, Inc. has grown since its beginnings in 1988. The Company holds an annual Spring Ballet and also participates in other community performances. Full length ballets performed by the Company have included “Coppelia”, “Les Sylphides”, and “Pas De Quatre”, as well as excerpts from “Giselle”, “Swan Lake”, and “Sleeping Beauty”. With professional guest artists from around the country, the Company not only presents dance from the classical repertoire, but also original works in classical and contemporary styles.

During the Summer of 2009, School of Ballet Tyler merged dance programs with Tyler Junior College in an effort to better serve the Tyler community. Ballet Tyler remains committed to providing quality classical dance to both students and patrons of classical dance in East Texas.

The purpose of Ballet Tyler is to provide opportunities for both dancers and East Texas audiences to experience the fine art of dance at the highest possible quality. This is accomplished through classroom instruction, special workshops, and reasonably-priced performances.
