From the reviews

My daughter has been at Sunnyside Ballet Studio since she was three (she is 11 now). Our experience has been excellent. We moved neighborhoods at one point and tried another studio as it was closer to our new home but she demanded to return to Sunnyside Ballet Studio because she loves it so much.

My friend recommended this SBS to me. It is great and friendly place with professional and dedicated teachers. My daughter is 7 year old, she learn a lot in SBS. She enjoys the classes. My Yasko puts her heart in the SBS, she has the best teachers and she truly wants her students to achieve their dreams.

To see a bad review of this studio is so hard. Sunnyside ballet studio has been a treasure to our community for so many of us. To be a part of such a family is truly an honor. Not only is Ms. Yasko and ALLL her staff amazingly talented in their field, they are also extremely welcoming, loving, patient and diligent.

★★★★★ — M, Aug 2019

I was shocked when I saw one star review below. Absolutely not true! Sunnyside ballet studio definitely deserves five stars! My daughter has been going there since she was 3. This year is going to be her 8th year.

Your first ballet class at Sunnyside Ballet Studio

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.
