Common Questions
WHAT AGE CAN MY CHILD START BALLET?
Children can start ballet at age 3 in First Steps, our creative movement class for ages 3-4. From there, dancers move up through our Youth Division (ages 5-8+), Junior Division (9+), and Trainee Division (11+). Classes are non-competitive, with small class sizes and individual attention.
HOW DO I KNOW IF MY 3-YEAR-OLD IS READY FOR BALLET?
Most 3-year-olds are ready when they enjoy moving to music and can follow simple directions for the length of class. Our youngest dancers take 45 minutes in class. As they get older and can handle more instructions, we move up to a 1-hour class. We really focus on each child as an individual; there is no one-size-fits-all, so give us a call at 508-545-0010, and we’ll talk it through.
DO YOU OFFER BALLET FOR AGES 10-18?
Yes. Dancers 9 and up can join our Junior Division, classical technique and conditioning using the Progressing Ballet Technique curriculum, and ages 11+ can join our Trainee Division, which includes pre-pointe and pointe. We also offer Modern Dance for ages 10+.
IS DO DANCE A COMPETITIVE STUDIO?
No. We are a non-competitive studio. We focus on each child’s individual progress, proper technique, musicality, and self-expression, rather than competition.
IS IT TOO LATE TO START BALLET AS AN ADULT?
Absolutely not! Adults can start ballet at any age, and our Adult Ballet Program is built for that. The Beginner class starts with the fundamentals of classical ballet, barre exercises, and simple center combinations, taught at a slow, comfortable pace. It’s never too late to feel like a dancer!
CAN I TAKE BALLET AS AN ADULT WITH NO EXPERIENCE?
Yes. Our Beginner class is made for people who have never taken a dance class. You don’t need to know any ballet terms, and the instructor explains each exercise as you go. No audition or prior experience is required!
