From the reviews

I absolutely love the flexibility class at Nylia ballet academy! Miss Ailyn, the instructor, is truly amazing. She has an incredible knowledge of stretches that target specific areas like posture, shoulders, and back flexibility to name a few. Her guidance and expertise made all the difference in my progress.

Nylia Ballet Academy is exactly what this city has been waiting for. While there are a number of dance studios on the Eastside, this is, to my knowledge, the only studio specifically focused on ballet. Instructors are well knowledgeable, kind, and, vibrant.

★★★★★ — Jazmine, Jun 2023

I joined a Nylia Ballet Academy a while back and couldn't be happier with my experience! From the moment I walked in, Ailyn made me feel incredibly welcome. As a male in a traditionally female-dominated space, I was a bit nervous at first, but Ailyn's warm and inclusive approach immediately put me at ease.

Your first ballet class at Nylia Ballet Academy

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.
