From the reviews

Started here in 2015 (at 15 years old) with ballet, after trying a few different studios. I got the training and community I never thought i’d find! Miss Stephanie really pushed us to be our best. I loved trying different styles as well, every class had something new to learn.

★★★★★ — Stella, Jul 2025

Over the last six years, two of our children studied various forms of dance at Dallas Ballet and Academy of Dance (DBAD to those who know, and now you do). The effect on their teenage years (when they studied) was transformative. The teaching staff is warm and knowledgeable in their individual fields.

★★★★★ — Jake, Aug 2025

A wonderful studio where kids not only learn dance technique but they do it in the most loving and supportive environment. There is a lot of importance placed on the culture of the studio which is very inclusive and strongly supports mentorship and leadership. I wouldn't send my daughter anywhere else.

★★★★★ — Montella, Apr 2026

My daughter loves the classes here. She takes multiple. She especially loves being a demonstrator for the beginner classes.

Your first ballet class at Dallas Ballet and Academy of Dance

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.
