From the reviews
Spectacular! Breathtaking! Phenomenal! I thoroughly enjoyed every single minute of Saturday evening’s performance of The Nutcracker! As soon as it ended I wanted to see it all over again. Lily Loveland and Steven Melendez dance so seamlessly together (once again!.
Great to have a professional ballet company close by! Fabulous quality-trained dancers and main stage productions. My favorite show would have to be Snow White as well as the new Nutcracker they did at the Kravis Center! The associated Ballet Palm Beach Academy is exceptional. Much attention to detail!
I must say that I was not sure to what to expect as Gatsby was my first performance attending here in South Florida. I was extremely happy with the performance. The stage and props used for the performance were incredible. I would recommend everyone to come and watch them perform.
Just tried my first Adult Ballet Class today and I am so happy I found a real place with educated teachers , wonderful staff, and not so far from home. Our class was lovely, I so look forward to the next one! 🥰🩰
Adult ballet at Ballet Palm Beach
Ballet Palm Beach 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 Ballet Palm Beach
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.
