From the reviews
This is one of my favorite dance studio’s I have practiced dancing at. All the teachers are so understanding and give constructive corrections that shape you into a better dancer. The community is so welcoming and the dancers are some of my best friends. 100/10 recommended.
the ballet academy is the most unique, wonderful experience i’ve had. the community is so warm and accepting, while also being challenging and character building. as a senior this year, i’m so sad to be leaving, and i don’t know what i’ll do without this place!
Your first ballet class at The 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.
