From the reviews
This year we switched from Anchorage Classical Ballet Academy to Alaska Dance Theater, we are so glad we made the switch! ADT's teachers are amazing with my girls, they felt so welcomed and comfortable, great at communicating with parents and overall very professional.
Ms. Blair is our favorite, she is a patient, skilled and professional instructor. We have taken several different genres of dance and enjoyed them all. All the instructors have been very professional and driven to help students succeed. I would recommend this studio to beginning through experienced dancers.
ADT is amazing!! The teachers are kind and supportive, the studios are welcoming and clean, the staff is friendly, and a wide range of classes and styles are offered, from creative movement for young children to hip-hop, jazz, acro, and modern to advanced ballet for older students.
I have been so pleased with the balance of high class technical training and a friendly accepting environment for my daughter to thrive in. I have had my daughter training here for six years and I continue to be thankful that we call Alaska Dance Theatre our home studio.
Your first ballet class at Alaska Dance 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.
