🩰 strong technique & training 8 mentions

“In just 3 short years, I have learned so many helpful strategies that have allowed my technique and strength to develop and increase my understanding about dance as a whole.”

From the reviews

I had Ms Heather as my ballet teacher and In a few weeks of having her I felt like I have grown and progressed more with my ballet technique. I really enjoyed Ms Heathers class and spending time with her, shes so funny and her way of teaching makes me love ballet more and more.

★★★★★ — Ava, Aug 2024

I have had the opportunity to study under the Grunt If You Understand method for just over 10 years. Since I started working with Miss Heather, I have noticed tremendous growth in not only my ballet training, but also in how I train for other styles.

★★★★★ — Adriana, Aug 2024

I studied ballet from the time I was young using the techniques Heather developed in Grunt If You Understand. From entertaining visuals that assisted me in remembering steps as a kid to cues that I still hear in my head as a young adult, the Grunt If You Understand method has helped me improve my technique and gain…

★★★★★ — Isabella, Aug 2024

Your first ballet class at Grunt If You Understand

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.
