“My daughter and granddaughter have both studied ballet with her.”
From the reviews
I am a generational repeater at Mary's studio. My daughter and granddaughter have both studied ballet with her. Mary is by far the best teacher who teaches the way she would want her children taught. She has repeatedly communicated with me throughout the year.
I love the school and my daughter loves it to. The teacher is really good with the kids.
Your first ballet class at Southern Youth 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.
