From the reviews
My son has been dancing with BASV since 2019. He came home from preschool one day and asked if he could do ballet (and yoga), so here we are, 6 years later! He has made good friends through class and he has fun performing in their twice-a-year stage productions- annual Nutcracker and a spring production (Coppélia,…
My daughter and I have both been dancing at BASV for about 2.5 years now - I take adult ballet and she takes youth classes. My daughter started at 11 years old without much experience so it was hard to find a studio where she could start as a relative beginner, but BASV has been truly amazing - supportive, flexible…
We were looking for a studio that was more supportive than the typical studio. Ballet Academy of Silicon Valley far exceeded our needs. They are not only supportive in a positive way of our son but being in Ukrainian has been life changing. You get to start out as a beginner and grow with the class.
The staff and families at BASV have been a gift for my daughter and family. Not only has my daughter benefited from expert dance instruction that prioritizes whole body strength conditioning and ballet technique, the staff's commitment to building a positive, inclusive, and empowering community among the dancers sets…
Adult ballet at Ballet Academy of Silicon Valley
Ballet Academy of Silicon Valley runs classes for grown-ups, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 Ballet Academy of Silicon Valley
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.
