Barb Cameron

In her early years with Youth Ballet, Barb worked both administratively and as a ballet instructor. From 2010 to 2012, she took on the role of Executive Director of the school.

Now retired from the administrative side of the studio, Barb continues to teach ballet classes for both adults and children. A graduate of the Royal Ballet School in London, England, Barb immigrated to Canada at the age of 20 and completed her teacher training at the Ottawa Dance Centre.

After moving to Regina in 1980, Barb furthered her training through summer courses at the National Ballet School and the Royal Winnipeg Ballet School. Before joining Youth Ballet, she served as Executive Director and ballet instructor at Regina Modern Dance Works, taught ballet at the Conservatory of Music and Dance at the University of Regina, and ran her own school, FUNdamental Dance. She also worked as a repetiteur in Regina for the children appearing in the Alberta Ballet Company’s annual production of the Nutcracker Ballet and for the Moscow Ballet’s production of Swan Lake.

Throughout the years, Barb has served on numerous boards of directors, including the Saskatchewan Arts Board, Dance Saskatchewan, SaskCulture, Theatre Regina, the Regina Children’s Festival, and the Regina Arts Commission, among others.
