Our People
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors is comprised of volunteers who guide Ballet Brazos in fulfilling our mission to instruct, educate, and enrich young people and their audiences through the art of dance, and provide quality classical ballet performances for the community.
Artistic Staff
The Artistic Staff meets and works together to fulfill their artistic vision for the company which ensures that Ballet Brazos productions feature beautiful costumes, sets, and scenery, and brings in the talents of guest professional ballet dancers. Under their direction, the dancers of Ballet Brazos experience the joy of performing in the ballet world's time-honored holiday tradition of The Nutcracker and also in classical ballets and original works.
Committees
The committees are made of dedicated volunteers who work tirelessly behind the scenes to make our performances well organized and to allow us to share our love of classical ballet with the community.
