Ballet Chelsea is thrilled to welcome another teacher, Betsy Baron, to its Artistic Faculty.

Betsy is thrilled to be teaching ballet to young dancers once again. She hopes to instill into their lives a love of dance and music, just as her first ballet teacher did 50 years ago. Betsy is also trained in Jazz and Contemporary dance, however her first love is Ballet.

Betsy’s previous career was in Computer Information Systems (Systems Analyst / Programmer). She left that career to become the Manager of her household (husband and four children)! This gave her the flexibility to teach dance part-time. She also volunteers for various Non-Profit Organizations helping them in their Fundraising and Development needs.

Betsy teaches Ballet Chelsea’s pre-ballet students. Visit our website balletchelsea.org/school/ for additional information on class offerings at Ballet Chelsea. ... See MoreSee Less
