Outreach & Education: San Francisco Ballet The San Francisco Ballet Center for Dance Education is dedicated to sharing our love of dance with the broadest possible audience. We value the dancer in everyone!

Among its graduates, El Sistema Venezuela has nurtured international musicians such as Edicson Ruiz and Gustavo Dudamel and the world-renowned Simón Bolívar Youth Orchestra. Many begin attending their local El Sistema center, called a “nucleo,” as early as age 2 or 3, with the vast majority continuing well into their teens; attending up to six days a week, three to four hours a day, plus retreats and intensive workshops. Participation is free for all students.
