★★★★★ — Tracy, Feb 2017

I’ve been dancing here for over 10 years and this is my 6th year doing competition with FBC. I am so thankful for coming across this studio. I’ve created wonderful relationships will all the teachers and students and even some of the parents.

★★★★★ — Rie, Jun 2024

I appreciate all of the instructors, staff, and parents here more than anyone will EVER know. Not once has my daughter come home upset over any critique like she did at her last studio. She comes home and works on her weaknesses so she can be a better dancer. She has more confidence, too.

★★★★★ — Elizabeth, Jan 2022

Your first ballet class at Fredericksburg Ballet Centre

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.
