From the reviews
We absolutely love Pennsylvania Ballet Academy! The teachers are not only incredibly skilled but also genuinely kind and supportive. My daughter has grown so much here — not just in her technique, but in confidence and love for ballet. It truly feels like a second home.
Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I love that they offer adult ballet classes twice a week! Tanya is a wonderful teacher.
The Pennsylvania ballet Academy is a wonderful place for boys and girls as well as young men and young women to learn the skill in the art of ballet and dance. All of the staff are highly professional and exceptional working with the kids.
My 9 year-old son has been going there for a couple of months. So far, he loves it. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. If your looking for a dance studio, I can’t recommend Pennsylvania Ballet Academy enough.
Adult ballet at Pennsylvania Ballet Academy
Pennsylvania Ballet Academy 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 Pennsylvania 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.
