Alumni
‘I think the best part of being a Royal Ballet School graduate is the vast web of alumni we have around the world.’
– 2016 graduate
Since it started in 1926, the School has trained many of the world’s finest classical dancers – including Margot Fonteyn, Kenneth MacMillan, Antoinette Sibley, Anthony Dowell, Anya Linden, Jonathan Cope and Darcey Bussell.
Today, the School continues to develop the talent and technique of young dancers and choreographers from all over the world, some of whose names may, one day, be as illustrious as those before them.
Alumni of The Royal Ballet School are part of a global community of dance professionals and enthusiasts. Leaving the School is not the end but the beginning of a lifelong link to us and to your fellow graduates.
Stay in touch
All former full-time students who attended the School automatically become alumni upon leaving. Whether you are a recent graduate, or you’ve been away for a while, we are keen to hear your news and, with your permission, share it with other alumni.
Please note: if you are a graduate and haven’t already heard from us, we do not have your current details. Please take a moment to fill out our online form with your details so we can add you to our alumni network.
If you have any news or an experience to share, please contact us at [email protected].
If you are still in touch with anyone who attended the School, we would be grateful if you could direct them to this page and encourage them to send us their details.
Please be assured that all personal details will be treated in strict confidence in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
