From the reviews
Fantastic local company that gives every level of dancer a chance to learn classic ballet and perform! We are so lucky to have this in our community.
My daughter performed in The Little Mermaid with A.V.A. Ballet Theatre. It was a great experience for her - fun, supportive, aspirational.
This show was so good! I had a blast and enjoyed every moment. I can't wait to go again next year.
Your first ballet class at A.V.A. Ballet Theatre
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
