From the reviews
I am an adult dancer and practice with Inna only twice a week. Before coming to Inna, I had a long break from ballet training but Inna was able to help me get back to establish a dancing routine and at this point I feel much stronger than I was ever before.
Inna Ballet is awesome! Inna's adult classes are perfect for anyone who has never danced to beg\inter level. Not many adult classes out there in ROC so class is usually pretty full with around 10-15 people. Classes are year round even in the summer!
Training with Inna is a dream come true! Being new to ballet, it's wonderful to work with someone with her incredible background, who is clear and precise in instruction, cares so much about every detail of form, and endlessly patient and kind. She perfectly blends hard work with fun, I can't imagine a better teacher!
Inna is a phenomenal ballet teacher! I started 7 years ago as an adult beginner and get so much joy from her classes and the chances I got to be part of the Nutcracker. She treats adults as serious learners which is perfect for me.
Adult ballet at Inna Ballet
Inna Ballet runs classes for grown-ups, going by their listing and students’ reviews. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.
Your first ballet class at Inna 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.
