From the reviews
We just finished our 4th season with MBC. It is an amazing dance company - not only for the incredible training and experience the dancers receive, but for the supportive community of directors, dancers, and parents.
MBC is an incredible ballet company! I can’t say enough about how amazing the shows are. The level of professionalism is truly impressive, from the stunning costumes to the incredible props that really bring each performance to life.
I was in the Macomb Ballet Company for seven years. The company has helped me grow a lot. I remember my very first Nutcracker performance and absolutely falling in love with ballet and performing. The company directors are so encouraging and supportive.
Macomb Ballet Company is a wonderful organization. The teachers are very good at encouraging the dancers to be the best they can be and the dancers always rise to the occasion. Every MBC production is beautiful. My daughter danced for the Macomb Ballet Company for 7 years she had a wonderful experience.
Your first ballet class at Michigan Ballet Company (formerly Macomb Ballet Company)
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.
