My daughter loves this place! Miss v is such an amazing teacher and is helping her to improve. She has been here for 10 years and made amazing friends. Every summer intensive she gives them pizza and occasionally some treats. This is the best ballet school In Michigan.
The teachers are very nurturing, respectful, and highly skilled in their trade. The prices are very reasonable considering the teachers were practitioners in professional companies.
Your first ballet class at Valentina's School 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.
