From the reviews

Our daughter has taken ballet at Greenleaf for 2 years. We are looking at our third year now. Things to love about this place: 1. We don't want our little girl dressing up like a grown woman with provocative dance clothes.

★★★★★ — Sandra, Sep 2013

We completely love this place for our teenage daughters and son. The leadership is emotionally healthy, academically rigorous and FUN for our children. They've somehow gathered a collection of students that are a remarkable set of honoring, kind, and talented young people. Couldn't recommend this place more highly.

★★★★★ — Nate, Oct 2020

Hello! My name is Nadia, I am 18 years old, and I have been going to Greenleaf Performing Arts Academy since I was 10! I've taken dance lessons, vocal and piano lessons, and theatre. I love absolutely everything about this place.

★★★★★ — Nadia, Apr 2026

Our two children take private piano lessons as well as Stage 1 acting at the Greenleaf South location. Acting class is very active. The teacher is a great fit for the role. For piano, Greenleaf offers young grade school aged students either 15 minute or 30 minute lessons. They work on Theory, Technique & Performance.

Your first ballet class at Greenleaf Performing Arts Academy - South Olathe

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.
