Our family has loved our time at Utah COPA! We have had all four of our children there in various programs and every single one has had an amazing experience. As far as the training goes, this program works.

★★★★★ — Katie, Aug 2023

COPA has been amazing for my son and daughter that love musical theater! They participate in the MDT companies and get 5-6 hours per week of excellent dance classes, vocal technique training, and group singing. The quality of instruction is excellent!

★★★★★ — N, Mar 2022

We absolutely love COPA! It is everything in one location. My girls get training in singing, several styles of dance, and acting all at one place. COPA provides lots of great opportunities for my girls to perform and expand their talent and confidence! We are grateful to be a part of the COPA family!

★★★★★ — Brittani, May 2019

I have 3 children in Utah COPA and we absolutely love it. It provides a curriculum that has helped develop their skills to audition, perform and become more confident in themselves as performers. We absolutely love the teachers and are so grateful we have this program where we live.

Your first ballet class at Utah Conservatory of the Performing Arts

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.
