The programs they offer
“It’s so hard to find places as an adult where you can actually grow your skill level and have new skills to work toward.”
How they train
From the reviews
I've been taking fitness through dance classes at the Orlando Ballet for the past several years. I'm an older dancer, and they offer a wide variety of genres for adults at all levels. The facility is beautiful, and the staff and instructors are welcoming and professional.
I love it here! It’s so hard to find places as an adult where you can actually grow your skill level and have new skills to work toward. Also the teachers are amazing! Many (other) recreational adult dance classes I’ve been to have been pretty basic, but there are classes here for every level.
Fitness thru dance is a fantastic program. You get a great workout AND it’s fun! The instructors are so talented and friendly. One hundred percent recommended these classes!
The kindest teachers, staff, and classmates! These classes have added sooo much to my life; so grateful to have found FTD < 3
Adult ballet at Fitness Thru Dance at Orlando Ballet School
Fitness Thru Dance at Orlando Ballet School runs classes for grown-ups, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 Fitness Thru Dance at Orlando Ballet 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.
