Atelier is a French word meaning an artist's workshop or studio, a place in which the art itself, the artistic work, and the artist are perpetually molded, shaped and nurtured. It best describes Ballet Mobile's ethos and environment.


Ballet Mobile transforms any room into an artistic venue. So too does ABC offer the multidimensional discovery of the artistry itself - whether in Studio 18 at the Howard County Center of the Arts or at one of our venues. Our Atelier moves with us, as our audiences watch and participate in our classes and rehearsals in their spaces as their "shows before the shows".


Everyone is together, sharing the light.

ABC Ballet Faculty  

Renée Meyer teaches Ballet Mobile classes, integrating some of the same healing strategies she uses for house calls into her ballet classroom. A professional dancer, she learned from Ballet Russes Roman Jasinski and Moscelyne Larkin, Robert Joffrey and his faculty, and "Papa" Ted Shawn and his legendary peers at Jacob's Pillow. With advanced degrees from Williams College and the George Washington University, Renée specializes in adult learning, the principles of which she applies to Ballet Mobile's house call design and delivery. Her interest in and study of adult cognitive science play a seminal role in the actual house call presentation and in her work throughout the house call with the audiences.

Other instructors or members of Ballet Mobile themselves occasionally offer a special class in their specialties.

Our audiences "warm up" as we do during all our pre-performance lecture/demo-like experiences, featuring real-life ballet class with ongoing explanations of what is happening and what to focus upon. Audiences grow more and more comfortable and are drawn into the gestalt of the Ballet Mobile ethos and essence, and into the overall art form of Ballet itself.
