Faculty

Atlanta Ballet Centre for Dance Education's team of professional instructors nourishes each student's complete development: Principal faculty Rosemary Miles and Armando Luna, Ballet Mistress Dale Shields, Centre for Dance Education faculty, and members of Atlanta Ballet. We are also proud to work with such guest faculty as Robert Barnett, Director Emeritus, Atlanta Ballet; Li Cheng, guest artist, Texas Christian University; Stephen Pier, guest faculty, Hart College; Clara Cravey & Michele Gifford, master teachers; Miki Orihara, principal, Martha Graham Company; Sharon Wong, Alvin Ailey School; John Welker & Christine Winkler, Atlanta Ballet Company members and Pro Camp mentors; and others to be announced.
