★★★★★ — Valentinaplayswithdolls, Sep 2014

I love Miami Royal Ballet. I have been dancing here for 5 years and I cant imagine dancing anywhere else. The amazing teachers here have taught me so much and we have developed a strong bond between each other. Not only have the teachers and I bonded, but my teammates are like family to me now.

★★★★★ — Sabrina_, Nov 2019

My daughter has been studying dance with Ms. Lourdes' staff for about 3 years now, twice weekly. She has a great time with the girls and has shown great progress in her ability. The staff is professional and courteous (and bilingual), and their recital numbers are really first-class.

Adult ballet at Miami Royal Ballet Dance School

Miami Royal Ballet Dance School runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. 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 Miami Royal Ballet Dance School

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.
