From the reviews
The Ballet School of Vermont has been such a positive and meaningful place for our daughter. She began dancing at the age of 3.5 and we knew that if she was choosing to dance that we, as parents, wanted her to have an authentic and classical experience.
Very impressive School! For context, I have been dancing professionally and teaching extensively at multiple ballet companies and schools for over 10 years. I was delighted to take ballet class at the Ballet School of Vermont while visiting.
I was a professional ballerina for many years, and it is always a joy to guest teach at The Ballet School of Vermont. The students receive high quality classical dance technique and individual attention. The productions the school puts on every year are some of the most creative and innovative I have seen.
The Ballet School of Vermont is an exceptional training program for classical ballet. It truly is a rare gem here in Franklin County, Vermont. I have three daughters at The Ballet School of Vermont and they have learned so much over the years.
Your first ballet class at The Ballet School of Vermont
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.
