Emerald Ballet Academy (EBA) has been a pillar of the Pacific Northwest dance community since 2010. Founded by world-class ballerina and master instructor Viktoria Titova, the academy is dedicated to sharing the joy and discipline of ballet with students of all ages.

Now, EBA is expanding with a newly built, state-of-the-art facility in Lake Hills Village. The 7,000-square-foot space features Harlequin sprung floors, spacious dressing rooms, and a premium environment for rehearsals, classes and performances.
