Our Mission

Dedicated to the art of classical and contemporary dance our 501(c)(3) non-profit company was founded by Erin Holt in 1997. As Southern California’s break-through performing arts company, California Contemporary Ballet (CCBallet) is the affiliate resident of California DanceArts, a school of ballet and contemporary dance, providing quality dance education. These two independent organizations, while affiliated solely through the art of dance, provide the most progressive quality dance education and inspired performance experiences for our respective artists and audiences.

Company Mission:
Celebrating the spirit of invention and exploration through new choreographic works, California Contemporary Ballet seeks to endow our artists with opportunities to engage our audiences in the creativity, imagination and joy of dance.
