From the reviews
We have had both our daughters here since they were 3 years old and couldn't be more pleased with everything the Hathaway's have done to help them develop. One of the best parts is that our daughters get to show us what they learned at performances that are choreographed in a very professional environment.
Our children have all happily attended Hathaway Academy of Ballet for just about a decade. We have a 4yr old daughter in the children’s division, an 11yr. old son in the student division and a 14 yr. old daughter in the pre professional program.
We couldn't say enough good words to express how much we love this school. It's been exactly 3 years since we walked into Hathaway academy just from driving by. (How lucky!) With the help of Mrs.
You are getting your money's worth at Hathaway Academy. They do a great job of teaching classical ballet! We love seeing our daughter blossom from her training. The teachers are devoted and very knowledgeable!
Your first ballet class at Hathaway Academy of 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.
