★★★★★ — Tina, Dec 2013

My daughter went to preschool here and we absolutely loved it. She got to ballet, tap and music during her preschool learning. I'm so glad we chose TCAB!

★★★★★ — Tiffany, Jul 2024

My 3 year old went to Angela’s Pre-Ballet class and loved every minute of it. She learned how to listen, follow directions and socialize with others in a smaller size class. I think it definitely will help her in the future when she goes to preschool and when she does other extra curricular activities.

★★★★★ — Bonnie, Jun 2018

TCAB offers the best ballet training in the region!! It has a top of the line facility with quality dance floors and a comfortable space for parents to view the classes. We've valued the training our dancer has received over the last 8 years and look forward to 4 more.

Your first ballet class at Tri-Cities Academy of Ballet

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.
