My daughter Maya loves it! She's been going for over a year and I've seen amazing progress plus the teachers are very welcoming and fun!
This is a great ballet academy! My daughter really enjoys going here, and I’ve been very impressed with their seasonal performances, including productions like The Nutcracker and Cinderella. The teachers are dedicated, and the students clearly benefit from their guidance.
I danced here for 13 years! Forever grateful to SBA for the most amazing training I could’ve asked for! The staff and teachers are top tier, and the facilities are absolutely gorgeous! Wouldn’t have wanted to dance anywhere else!
Absolutely love this place! The community is incredible and the performances are always so fun to watch. The staff really cares about the students, and the students clearly respect them, just such a great environment all around!
Your first ballet class at Sterling Ballet Academy
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.
