From the reviews

Being at the Conservatory ballet is an incredible opportunity because of the mental, physical, and emotional benefits. Mrs Barlett encourages students to make goals, envision the best outcome for any situation, and overall to have a positive and optimistic outlook on life.

★★★★★ — Emily, Jun 2022

Being a military brat, my daughter has attended over half a dozen ballet schools over the years. Alexia and Conservatory Ballet have been the most incredible of all her experiences! Alexia's family legacy and her personal commitment to aspiring ballerinas around the world is inspiring.

★★★★★ — A., Apr 2022

My son and daughter have thoroughly enjoyed Mrs. Bartlett's classes! Her passion and knowledge of ballet is strongly apparent and keeps the students focused and excited to learn the material. I'd highly recommend her for anyone interested in exploring ballet in a friendly, positive environment!

Your first ballet class at Conservatory Ballet - Williamsburg

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.

Ballet is for every age and every body. If you're returning from an injury or have a health concern, mention it to the teacher before class so they can offer modifications.
