From the reviews
Our daughter is entering her third year at The HARID Conservatory and we have been very impressed with all aspects of the HARID experience. The dance teachers are professional and have honed our daughter’s technique. Initially, we had concerns about our daughter living so far from home.
Harid is really a professional training facility for the serious ballet dancer. My daughter's technique has improved tremendously over the past year. Her prior dance mentors continue to rave at how much she has grown as a dancer.
My son has grown tremendously as a dancer and as a person at Harid. The school offers phenomenal training for the serious ballet dancer. The structure of the school helps the students succeed at a very high level both academically and artistically.
Harid has provided an excellent learning environment for our daughter. The performances we've attended have been outstanding. We are also pleased with Harid's concern for safety and well being of the students.
Your first ballet class at The HARID Conservatory
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.
