From the reviews
Best dance studio in Omaha. NEW LOCATION. 2502 S. 133rd. Opening Sept. 11. 8 teachers, 150 students...more are welcome. 11,000 square feet. Owner, Rachel was a professional ballet dancer for over 20 years. Front section will have Pilates class. Great, caring teachers. Talented students.
I'm a fellow ballerina of 16 years and 8 years of theater and music. I also taught for a few years so I'm super picky when it comes to choosing a dance studio for my girls. I absolutely adore the teachers and I love the discipline and respect they expect out of the students.
Our family moved from Seattle to Omaha this past year, and were hoping that we could find a dance studio for our daughter that was of the same caliber as her previous ballet school. We were fortunate enough to learn of Rachel Vickrey and Robin Welch through a lucky conversation with a stranger on an airplane to Omaha.
My 9 year old daughter transferred to this studio two years ago. We were drawn there for a few reasons, including the opportunity to perform in full-length ballet theatre productions (on top of end- of-the-year showcase recital)!
Your first ballet class at Heartland Conservatory of Dance
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.
