From the reviews
My oldest daughter has been dancing here since they opened their doors! She has danced 8 showcases and is working on her 9th year! We absolutely love Meghan and she has become like family to us all. Even with my oldest having challenges she has never made her feel less than any other dancer there.
Belletete Ballet is an amazing place to dance! The instructors are all kind, talented, caring individuals that love what they do and share their passion for dance with their students. We have been lucky enough to call them our dance home for six years, and look forward to many more!
Belletete is an amazing dance studio- my son has taken an adaptive dance class there for the last 7 years. He loves every minute of him and he gets a chance to shine! Miss Meghan is the best!
My two daughters have been dancing at Belletete Ballet for years. Their love of dance began and has flourished at this studio. Between my two girls, they have taken nearly every class offered, including ballet, pointe, jazz, hip hop, contemporary, aerial, you name it! Ms.
Adult ballet at Belletete Ballet Studio
Belletete Ballet Studio 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 Belletete Ballet Studio
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.
