From the reviews

My friend and I saw the August 18th (25) performance at the Lake Harriet Bandshell. As a former student of ballet, I was impressed with the grace and professionalism of the dancers. Their arms (port a bra) were lithe and beautiful. No broken wrists.

I saw Danse Fatale a couple years ago at the Lake Harriet Bandshell and saw they were performing again, this past week. We rushed down to get seats and we were not disappointed. The solo performances were professional and the group dances were fun and entertaining. I am looking forward to their show next year.

Your first ballet class at La Danse Fatale

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.
