Master Ballet Academy: On a Mission to Shape the Next Generation of Dancers Across Arizona

Dance is an expression of life. It allows individuals to express their inner feelings freely, which is why it inspires so many people. While mastering a dance form requires passion and dedication, developing strong, well-rounded dancers demands far more. It requires more than talent; it demands structure, consistency, and experienced guidance. In Arizona, Master Ballet Academy has spent the last 15 years doing exactly that, developing dancers who go on to perform, compete, and train on some of the world's most respected ballet stages.

Master Ballet Academy: A Family-Driven Mission Rooted in Ballet

Located in Scottsdale, Arizona, Master Ballet Academy (MBA) is the official school of Phoenix Ballet, a professional performance company. It operates under the direction of renowned choreographer Slawomir Wozniak. He founded the school in 2007 after relocating from Poland to the United States along with his wife, Irena and their two sons. Following Irena's retirement from dancing and Slawomir's graduation from the University of Music in Warsaw, the transition into teaching and mentorship was a natural progression for the couple.

What began as a ballet school soon became a lifelong mission: to pass on experience, discipline, and deep respect for the art of ballet to younger generations. Today, that mission continues with that family's vision of building a school formed entirely from dancers trained within the academy.

"Ballet is our entire life. It will be as long as we are able to be involved. As we believe dance is the most wonderful form of art, we love to ensure that people who do not know about it will fall in love with it by seeing our great quality performances," said Slawomir.

A Legacy of Excellence in Ballet Training

Known for its Vaganova-based ballet technique, Master Ballet Academy provides year-round training designed to meet the demands of both developing and pre-professional dancers starting from the age of 3. The academy's programming includes a seven-week Summer Intensive, mini GPI intensives and structured seasonal instruction that emphasizes technique, performance readiness, and long-term development. This approach has gained them outstanding results.

>> Master Ballet Academy's dancers have earned top honors at international competitions, including USA IBC Jackson Awards and Gold Medals at IBC Varna.

>> For many students, training at Master Ballet Academy has led directly to professional careers. Today, dancers from the academy perform with renowned companies including American Ballet Theatre, Stuttgart Ballet, Colorado Ballet, the National Ballet of Canada, Norwegian National Ballet, Nederlands Dans Theater, Les Grands Ballets Canadiens de Montréal, and many others.

>> The dancers have also made appearances on globally recognized platforms such as 'So You Think You Can Dance,' 'Driven to Dance,' 'Born on Pointe,' and 'Dance Moms.'

>> Master Ballet Academy also takes pride in the fact that its dancers have received scholarships to train at prestigious institutions worldwide including St. Petersburg Vaganova Ballet Academy, Princess Grace Dance Academy in Monaco, Canada's National Ballet, Munich Ballet Academy, and John Cranko Schule in Stuttgart.

Recognitions That Define Master Ballet Academy

At Master Ballet Academy, performance experience remains central to its philosophy. Through Phoenix Ballet, Master Ballet Academy ensures its dancers gain regular stage exposure in full-length classical and contemporary productions.

Since its inception Master Ballet Academy has worked on a simple belief: ballet education should prepare students not only to perform, but to contribute meaningfully to the future of dance and this mission continues today.
