Mentorship Program

Shaping Future Leaders

Silverton Ballet and Performing Arts Company’s Mentorship Program offers intermediate and advanced students the opportunity to assist in younger-level classes while also providing an alternative method of tuition payment. Participants are selected based on their demonstrated work ethic, character, and consistent commitment in class.

This experience is mutually enriching—mentors reinforce their own technical foundation by working with beginning dancers, while gaining valuable insight into teaching under the guidance of an experienced professional. For aspiring teachers or dance educators, it’s a meaningful first step toward leadership, confidence, and a deeper connection to the art of teaching.

If you have questions about our mentorship program, feel free to call the studio directly at (503) 873-7942.

"Dance was such a meaningful part of my childhood, and it all began at your studio, where I put on my first ballet slippers and fell in love. Silverton Ballet provides so many young dancers with a safe place to grow, not only in artistry but confidence and determination. Thank you for everything you poured into me all of those years."
