Yes, Mentors in Ballet Education (MIBE) actively supports and encourages students to participate in competitions.
Cecchetti Classical Ballet
MIBE encourages students to attend Cecchetti Classical Ballet competitions, which provide a welcoming and inspiring platform for dancers of all ages and levels. These events allow students to demonstrate their artistry, choreography and performance skills while building confidence and gaining stage experience outside the ballet studio.
Embrace Ballet Company
For younger dancers, our Embrace Ballet Company (ages 8–18) provides a nurturing and inclusive environment where students rehearse, perform, and develop their talents together. With two rehearsal seasons each year, the company prepares for full-scale productions, giving dancers the chance to grow their technical ability, artistry, and teamwork in a supportive setting. This unique experience complements our regular ballet lessons, ballet workshops, and professional ballet training.
Why Choose MIBE?
In addition to competitions, MIBE offers valuable ballet coaching and mentoring to help students prepare for performances and auditions, fostering the confidence and skills needed to shine on stage. As a recognised Lancashire dance academy, we believe in promoting excellence, creativity, and joy in dance, ensuring every student has the opportunity to progress and showcase their potential in both performance and competition settings.
