About <strong>Peabody</strong> Dance<br />
Looking toward its 100th birthday in the fall <strong>of</strong> <strong>2014</strong> — a<br />
continuous lifespan few, if any, American dance training<br />
centers can boast — <strong>Peabody</strong> Dance is keeping in step<br />
with the progression <strong>of</strong> American dance into the 21st<br />
century. Now under the direction <strong>of</strong> Melissa Stafford, the<br />
current department chair, along with dance visionary<br />
Barbara Weisberger, artistic advisor since 2001, <strong>Peabody</strong><br />
Dance will continue to invigorate its curriculum, enrich<br />
its students, and serve its art form and its community as<br />
it did under the artistic direction <strong>of</strong> Carol Bartlett from<br />
1988-2012.<br />
<strong>The</strong> heart <strong>of</strong> <strong>Peabody</strong> Dance’s philosophy is the expectation<br />
that all students, whether they are pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
aspirants or children and mature adults exploring the joys<br />
<strong>of</strong> dancing, will have the opportunity to reach their own<br />
desired level <strong>of</strong> achievement. In return, an internationally<br />
respected faculty and artistic staff are dedicated to<br />
meeting the needs <strong>of</strong> their students on an individual basis<br />
and to <strong>of</strong>fering them exemplary training, inspiration and<br />
encouragement.<br />
<strong>The</strong> balance <strong>of</strong> the information which follows has been<br />
carefully designed to encourage and facilitate student and<br />
parent understanding and participation. Please do not<br />
