About the Founder

Madison Hill has been training in classical ballet since the age of four. She began her studies at Huntsville Ballet and continued her training with Alabama Youth Ballet, Nashville Ballet, and Ballet Chicago. She was offered scholarships to several collegiate dance programs, including the University of Alabama, before pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance at Belhaven University.

After moving to Gulf Shores, Madison began teaching ballet and later became head of the ballet division at Dance Academy Santa Rosa. There, she directed all ballet classes and productions.

Over the years, many families in Baldwin County have expressed the need for a dedicated classical ballet school in the area. Inspired by this demand and her passion for dance education, Madison founded Orange Beach Ballet School to provide high-quality classical ballet training and artistic opportunities for local students.
