From the reviews
Excellent, Mr Abella its a great Ballet Professor, his methodes are perfect for all ages students.
My daughter wanted to start ballet after seeing The Nutcracker performance last year put on by SAB (Abellas). She started 6 months ago with no dance experience and is now in 3 classes per week as well as a weekly practice for her 2nd show. She loves everything about the school; classes, Mr Luis, and her new friends.
My daughter has been a dance student here since 2016. Luis Abella and the entire staff are absolutely amazing and truly care about the kids. They have created a family oriented atmosphere and we really look forward to the Nutcracker and spring show every year.
Your first ballet class at Abella's School of Dance
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.
