About Us

As a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, the Northwest Florida Ballet was established in 1969 by dance pioneer Bernadette Clements Sims and is highly regarded for providing world-class ballet performances and training students in the art of dance. From the 13,000 sq. ft. Sybil Smith Lebhertz Center for Dance Education facility and our 3,500 sq. ft. Studio Annex, NFB serves as a cornerstone for downtown Fort Walton Beach.

Since 2001, NFB has also operated the NFB Académie through a public-private partnership with the Okaloosa County School District for 3rd through 8th grades. In 2012, the Pre-Professional Program was launched to serve high school students, bridging the gap between the student and professional world of dance.
