The Joffrey ballet was founded in NYC in 1956. This company has had a long and excellent reputation under the direction of Robert Joffrey and Gerald Arpino. The company moved to Chicago in the 1990's. They also had an excellent ballet school affiliated with the company. This school still runs in NYC but I don't think it is with the company any longer
