From the reviews
If you want your child to learn to dance in an atmosphere that requires good conduct and following directions, this is the place for you. My daughter danced there for eight years and while she learned to dance she also learned decorum, proper behavior and respect for adults.
Love it. Been dancing here for almost 11 years. wouldn't want to go anywhere else. This is definitely the studio to go to if you want to have good teachers. This is a serious studio.
The first time I was there it was so nice they give you free time sometimes to get a drink and got to the bathroom but overall I love it so much
Your first ballet class at Belleville School of Ballet
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.
