From the reviews
My daughter has been going for 10 years. The discipline is excellent for classical ballet training. Preparation for future with a company having the best technique training in Fort Worth. Not having to deal with competitions and focusing on training is a plus.
My daughter has attended Texas Ballet Theater School for the past 3 years. After watching her last night during Parent Observation Week I have to say her growth as a dancer is amazing. She has attended other Ballet Schools in the past, but this has been the best experience by far.
Our daughter did the Jr. Ballet Intensive this summer and loved it! She has attended every year since age 5 (level appropriate), but there the challenge of learning new techniques in 2 weeks with a week off and back for another 2 weeks helped from becoming burned out and preventing any injuries that are common in…
Two daughters have taken classes here and love/loved it. Instructors are fantastic and every child/young adult always seem to have a positive time here after classes.
Adult ballet at Texas Ballet Theater School Fort Worth Studio
Texas Ballet Theater School Fort Worth Studio runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.
Your first ballet class at Texas Ballet Theater School Fort Worth 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.
