From the reviews
Prima Classical Coaching is an excellent ballet school. The environment is encouraging, nurturing, with genuine caring for each student. The director leads a culture of support and excellence with fun intertwined in each class. My daughters are very happy at Prima.
We’ve been at Prima for two years, and my young daughter adores it. She says “definitely five stars!!!” We appreciate the fun, caring atmosphere, and are so proud watching the growth of the dancers and dedication of the staff.
Prima is the BEST ballet school! My daughters have been dancing here for less than a year and their growth is unbelievable! Jacqueline, the Director, is one of a kind! She’s patient, encouraging, and thoughtful in her training. She tailors her approach to each level and my girls have never enjoyed ballet this much!
This is such a sweet community of dancers and teachers. The were so welcoming to my daughter who was just deciding to focus on ballet and they welcomed her right in. And the performance opportunities here are amazing! Somehow they are able to pull off lovely little ballets with even the littlest dancers.
Your first ballet class at Prima Classical 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.
