From the reviews

It is so great to see strong Vaganova Technique coming to North Idaho. Mrs. Heather knows how to make her students feel welcome and comfortable while also pushing them to do their best. As a former dancer myself, I highly recommend sending your young ballerina here!

★★★★★ — Cat, Feb 2023

Mrs. Heather is fantastic with the young girls in introducing them to the structure of discipline of ballet. Our daughter loves it and is so excited to keep learning more!

Your first ballet class at Russian Ballet of Idaho

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.
