About Westside Ballet Company
Westside Ballet Company, a nonprofit organization, is one of the nation's premier ballet training companies. This pre-professional company was created by Yvonne Mounsey and Rosemary Valaire in 1970 to provide the promising young dancers of the Westside School of Ballet the performance opportunities that are so vital to their growth. The Santa Monica, California-based company now comprises approximately 150 dancers, ages 8 to 18.
Please note: The name Westside Ballet is used informally to refer to two separate organizations: Westside Ballet Company, a non-profit 403C, and Westside School of Ballet. Yvonne Mounsey is director of both the company and the school, but they are separate entities legally and financially.
