What families & students say
“They have helpful staff, an organized system, and great teachers.”
From the reviews
Peoria Ballet has a family environment. It has wondorus students and teachers all working together for their productions. The volunteers do tremendous work in the sewing, props and other departments.
The best place to be in the central Illinois for classical ballet, modern, jazz & tap education and great performances. Great staff and more than 50 years of tradition backing it up.
I have the most wonderful time taking classes there. They have helpful staff, an organized system, and great teachers.
They are very understanding of little ones. I felt the teachers were very patient.
Your first ballet class at Peoria 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.
