Inclusion at the heart of the École supérieure's values

Equity, diversity and inclusion are fundamental to L'École supérieure de ballet du Québec, whose Board of Directors adopted an official statement on September 20th, 2022, embodying the core values of respect and openness.

At L’École supérieure de ballet du Québec, achieving excellence involves the ability to attract and develop the best talent, exercising the utmost vigilance to remove barriers for the students, staff and others who dedicate part of their lives to the organization’s mission.

L’École supérieure has always been intent on ensuring that its activities unfold, at all times, in a safe and healthy environment free of racism, discrimination and any other type of exclusion that could compromise the students’ development and the growth of its personnel as well as that of volunteers involved with its various departments, its Foundation and the Vincent-Warren Dance Library.

Maintaining an environment where equity, diversity and inclusion are promoted and supported helps ensure the accessibility of L’École supérieure and offers everyone the possibility of developing their full potential, regardless of their ethnicity, phenotype, sexual orientation or identity, disability, origin or social background, among others.

L’École supérieure is aware that its commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion must be based on concrete actions along with ongoing reflection and dialogue. As a leader in professional dance training in our constantly evolving world, L’École supérieure believes that its influence and development are closely tied to its expertise in the field of dance as well as its knowledge of equity, diversity and inclusion.
