The Columbia County Ballet was formed in 1985 to bring something new in dance as a performing art to the children in Augusta, Georgia. Today the CCB dance studios are located on a beautiful sprawling acre and a half in the Martinez, Evans area where the dance students celebrate the art of dance through the beauty of the ballet.

Excerpt taken from Augusta Chronicle Editorial March 27, 2008

..."Now in Augusta, community partners from schools to churches to business leaders are working toward the goal of helping spread family values once again.  It all started with the annual Columbia County Ballet staging of the Roar of Love, based on the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the outstanding children's book by writer and scholar C. S. Lewis.  Gordon Renshaw, former executive director of the Columbia County Chamber of Commerce, sheepishly admits that when he first saw the Roar of Love several years ago, he brought a book to relieve what he thought would be boredom.  The book never got opened.  Marveling at how well Lewis' spiritual message translated magnificently in the ballet, Renshaw began forming an idea: Develop a community partnership to spread this message to children and their families...And it's already taking shape."
