From the reviews

I'm pretty new to the St. Louis dance scene, but I was blown away by the show Resilience put on! I feel like I felt every human emotion watching them dance, clearly such a passionate group of artists.

★★★★★ — Ellie, Jul 2022

I've been to two different shows that RDC has put on and they are always phenomenal! Literally such beautiful expressions of movement and motion. I can't wait to attend another show in the future (and maybe take a class or two the next time I'm in town).

Your first ballet class at RESILIENCE Dance 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.

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.
