From the reviews
My daughter is a competitive figure skater. She takes group lessons, as well as private lessons, to help her with her figure skating. MSB and their Director, Paula Shiff, have been instrumental in bringing my daughters skating to a higher level.
We took a few private lessons with Nancy before our wedding to ensure our first dance would go smoothly! We had a wonderful time with a very understanding teacher that knew we were not experienced dancers! Over time, we learned a great dance routine and had a perfect first dance!
Marblehead School of Ballet celebrated its 51st Anniversary! Congratulations MSB! And a whole hearted congrads to Paula Shiff, the best ballet teacher for all levels in Massachusetts! Fondly, Connie Truax
The best ballet school, highly professional, caring staff and mostly importantly focus on healthy development of their students. So happy we have such a wonderful school locally, highly recommend!
Your first ballet class at Marblehead School 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.
