From the reviews
Wonderful school for adult beginners. Technique-based class, not fitness-based, so you will learn and get stronger in a safe and fun environment! Love this company and Chieko!
Went to my first ballet performance last season and was amazed by the talented dancers and the variety of pieces. I cannot wait for the new season and leadership! I definitely recommend checking out one of their shows.
We travel to Tucson from Sierra Vista because of the quality instruction and higher level of technique taught here! Wonderful, caring, talented staff!
A serious classical ballet, jazz and tap studio where kids are trained to become technical dancers. The teachers are thorough and emphasize proper dance education.
Your first ballet class at Ballet Tucson
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.
