From the reviews
My daughter has been dancing with greater Annapolis ballet since it’s opening in 2020. The studio, under its creative Director Margaret Russell, is a welcoming, professional, and supportive environment for students who are starting from the fundamentals of classical dance to dancers who aspire to follow a…
Exceptional studio lead by a very talented and dedicated artistic director! We've been a part of GAB since it's opening in 2020. The environment is very supportive and there are many opportunities for dancers to perform throughout the year, including Regional Dance America, Youth America Grand Prix and local venues in…
Ms Margaret and the other teachers have always been encouraging to my kids. My daughter just got back from national RDA in Florida and had a blast. My son is enjoying learning how to partner. Both kids are challenged by the curriculum and love dancing! So glad we found GAB!
GAB is a wonderful and supportive dance studio for dancers of all ages. The instructors teach dance technique and etiquette but also instill a sense of self and confidence in their dancers that they can take with them in any setting in life.
Your first ballet class at Greater Annapolis Ballet
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.
