From the reviews
RMC is my daughter’s second home. There is no better ballet training in Denver. The team is small but the most supporting and loving community.
We love the instructors and staff at RMC! Many of which came from our last studio Rocky Mountain Ballet Academy. The quality of instruction and degree of program for these young dancers is amazing!
We absolutely love RMC! My child has grown so much here. not only in technique, but also in confidence and discipline. The instructors are patient, supportive, and extremely professional.
An amazing Vaganova-based ballet and contemporary dance conservatory with excellent teachers, beautiful technique training, and a very caring atmosphere. This studio prepares dancers exceptionally well for competitions — the kids always come home with placements, medals, or special awards.
Your first ballet class at Rocky Mountain Conservatory
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.
