Our Projects – Creating Opportunities Through Dance

At the Yen Han Ballet Foundation, we believe that dance should be accessible to all. Our programs are designed to remove barriers, provide high-quality training, and nurture young talent, ensuring that everyone—regardless of background—has the opportunity to experience the transformative power of ballet.

Each initiative reflects our mission to empower, educate, and inspire through dance.

Outreach Dance Program – Bringing Dance to the Community

Not every child has access to a dance studio—but that shouldn’t mean they can’t experience the joy of movement.

Our Outreach Dance Program brings ballet and dance education directly to community schools and underserved areas, ensuring that children can discover self-expression, confidence, and creativity through movement.

What we do:

  • Organize free dance workshops in schools and community centers.
  • Provide qualified instructors to introduce children to the discipline and joy of dance.
  • Foster creativity and teamwork, helping young minds grow through movement.

Dance for All – Affordable Training for Everyone

Ballet should not be limited to those who can afford expensive lessons.

Our Dance for All program, hosted at the Yen Han Dance Center, provides high-quality ballet training at affordable rates, ensuring that anyone—regardless of financial situation—can experience professional-level instruction in an inclusive, welcoming environment.

What we do:

  • Offer low-tariff classes supported by the foundation.
  • Create a space where everyone can explore their passion for dance.
  • Promote inclusivity and accessibility, making ballet an art form for all.

Scholarship Program – Investing in Future Talent

Some dancers have the talent, dedication, and passion—but not the financial means.

Our Scholarship Program supports young dancers aged 15-23 years old who demonstrate exceptional commitment to their craft. Through financial assistance for advanced training, we aim to remove financial barriers and help dancers refine their skills.

What we do:

  • Provide scholarships for talented dancers who need financial support.
  • Offer training opportunities to help students reach a professional level.
  • Ensure that dedication and potential—not financial means—determine a dancer’s future.

Application details, including audition requirements, will be announced as the foundation develops further.

Performance Project – A Stage for Creativity

Art should be experienced, shared, and celebrated.

Our Performance Project provides a platform for dancers to express their creativity, push artistic boundaries, and engage with the community. Through these performances, we create spaces where art is not only performed but also experienced on a deeper level.

What we do:

  • Organize live performances to showcase emerging talent.
  • Foster collaboration with choreographers and artists to expand artistic expression.
  • Engage the audience, bringing the beauty of ballet to a wider community.

Details on upcoming performances will be shared as the foundation grows.
