From the reviews
I feel compelled to write this review as my experience at Align has been exceptional! I danced on and off from about 8 years old through college. I had not taken a ballet class in over 30 years and was very intimidated to go back and dance again.
I came to LA a year ago and wanted to get back to ballet so badly. I was looking for adult classes that allow drop-ins, and suits my busy graduate school schedule. Thankfully i found out about Align Ballet Method, which is structured very similarly to my previous school.
I started taking adult ballet classes with Align over a year ago in the middle of the pandemic and soon purchased an unlimited virtual membership. It is totally worth it, and I take virtual classes via Zoom 2-4 days a week.
Linda is the best! She's the reason I stayed at Align Ballet (Align I and II). She is just perfect for teaching absolute beginners, going at a slow pace and explaining technique, which is so important for beginners. Her kind and friendly demeanor was an added bonus.
Adult ballet at ALIGN BALLET METHOD LOS ANGELES - BEVERLY HILLS
ALIGN BALLET METHOD LOS ANGELES - BEVERLY HILLS runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.
Your first ballet class at ALIGN BALLET METHOD LOS ANGELES - BEVERLY HILLS
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.
