From the reviews
Wonderful, pre-professional ballet training in a supportive, nurturing environment. Faculty foster a sense of camaraderie among their dancers rather than competitiveness. After six years here, my daughter still loves to dance...instructors know that the love and joy of dance is just as important as technique...
Our daughters love taking ballet classes at BTCA! Miss Jane and Mr. Frank run a wonderful academy for dancers of all ages and skill levels. The teachers really bring out the best in each student and help them progress at dance.
We have loved MYB for our dancers. Our girls are 10 and 12 and celebrate their 6th year with MYB (formerly BTCA). They have loved every minute of it. It is a warm and encouraging environment with the best of the best in training and technique.
My two daughters and son have danced for Jane and Frank for a collective 18 seasons. In addition to imparting their years of professional experience, they not only care for the skill of your dancer, they are also good stewards of their souls. BTC has been their home away from home.
Your first ballet class at Metropolitan Youth Ballet of Indiana
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.
