From the reviews

This school has been the best 3 year experience for my child ! My daughter has advanced in so many levels taking both piano lesson and ballet. Professor Jelena gives expansive classes compared to any other performance school in the valley. In piano she includes her European theory which is a plus.

★★★★★ — Raquel, Sep 2021

My child is thriving at the European Ballet and Piano School. Not only is she learning piano and ballet, but she's also gaining skills in various aspects of performing arts.

★★★★★ — Maya, Sep 2023

We absolutely love European Ballet and Piano Studio! My daughter has been attending for about a year now and truly looks forward to every class. She has grown so much, not only in her ballet skills but also in confidence and discipline. Miss Jelena is an incredible teacher who genuinely cares about her students.

★★★★★ — Kate, Jan 2026

My 5year old loves Ms. Jelena! He started just shy of 5 years old, last year, and has done so well in the very short amount of time. This momma heart is so happy and proud. He loves to go to his piano lesson, never once was it a problem. Ms.

Your first ballet class at European Ballet and Piano School

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.
