From the reviews

My girls have been dancing here for a number of years. The instructors are great. We love Miriam, Barbara, Eve, Kris and all the others. The studio has good structure and the teachers motivate the kids to do great work. The kids, for the most part are incredibly sweet and supportive with each other.

The absolute true ballet school in Northern Nevada. The faculty and teachers are the most experienced in classical ballet training. Students will excel in this organization. A truely accredited RAD ballet school with excellent advanced ballet classes as well.

Excellent. My 5 year old attends and just transitioned to Primary. I tried another studio before this one and it did not meet my needs. I know Mrs Miriam does a very throughout job. Very formal setting.

Your first ballet class at The Conservatory of Movement

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.
