🧸 wonderful with young kids 5 mentions

“Park Ballet has been a wonderful experience for my children. I love that Toria offers classes outside because spending time outside is so important for everyone’s wellbeing.”

From the reviews

We love Toria! Her warmth shines through upon first meeting and young children take to her. She is able to teach in an engaging and playful way which our daughter loves and brings up instances of her lessons throughout at home in the days following her class.

★★★★★ — Mary, Jan 2024

We started Park Ballet just a few weeks ago and our almost three year old absolutely loves it! Ms. Toria has a very welcoming and beautiful approach to dance and truly fosters an environment that is fun forward.

★★★★★ — Winn, Dec 2023

We have been coming to Park Ballet classes since my child was in the “Dance with me baby” parent-child class. We’ve done pre-ballet, tap, and acro classes as well as camps. We love Toria! She’s so patient, engaging, and wonderful with the kids. It’s an extremely approachable experience and not stuffy at all.

Your first ballet class at Park 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.

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.
