This is a great school with very supportive people. It is not at all a stressful or competitive environment, very welcoming. The teacher is kind, helpful, knowledgeable and supportive. She knows exactly the right things to help you improve in both technique and artistry.

I can't begin to describe how much I love this place, the people, teachers, atmosphere, it's all amazing. Everyone is so helpful and the teachers strive for you to do your best.

★★★★★ — Grace, Sep 2023

My daughter, 8, has been coming for 2 years. Learning ballet skills can be difficult for an 8 year old, but through time and patience she is getting better and better. Now she cannot wait to start her 3rd year. She loves the friends she has made here.

Your first ballet class at The Ballet Theatre School

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.
