Top Ballet schools in Brooklyn, United States

It truly is “the happiest ballet school on the block”❤️🩰

We had my daughter's 7th birthday at Bay Ridge Ballet this week and it exceeded our expectations! For a reasonable price, Ms. Patty took care of all decorations and made the space look magical for our daughter, including signage outside. She also took care of ordering and serving pizza. For two hours, Ms. Patty and her assistant kept 15 children ranging in age from 4-11 all entertained, laughing, playing and dancing! She made my daughter feel special throughout the party and made "hosting" a party easy for me as a parent. All I had to do was bring cupcakes! Thank you Bay Ridge Ballet! Highly Recommend!

Bay Ridge Ballet is amazing! This is our first year at BRB and I have been so pleased. My daughter was in a tumbling class for the first semester and she is now in a hip hop class for the second semester. We have loved BRB so much that I reached out to Patty about hosting my daughter's birthday party here. Let me tell you, the party was out of this world!!! The personalized details were simply amazing and made the party extra special. Patty and Allison were outstanding! They had so many activities planned and smoothly transitioned the girls from one activity to the next. They danced, they played with a parachute, they played dress-up, they completed a craft, there was a photo booth, a piñata, pizza, and more! Set-up and clean-up were included which was the icing on the cake for me. My daughter loved her ballerina birthday so much that she has now requested to try out a ballet class, which we are doing this week. We just love, love, love BRB and we will be sticking around for many more classes.

Such a wonderful place for the arts in the neighborhood! The owner is kind, patient, understanding and terrific with kids!

We've tried a few dance studios in the neighborhood, but Bay Ridge Ballet is by far our favorite. My kids have been students there for several years now. Ms. Patty is a great talent and teacher and her warmth and energy are infectious. All of the other teachers are highly qualified and professional too. We highly recommend BRB!

Miss patty and her staff are amazing artists and teachers. I count myself extremely luck to have found this studio. We bounced around for a few years at other, bigger studios in Manhattan but no other place has taught my daughters more than BRB! EDIT: Going on six years here at Bay Ridge Ballet and both of my daughters still love it here and even with the pandemic Miss Patty put in place very stringent policies regarding COVID and was able to thrive. We feel so blessed to have found this school, it is a huge part of their lives.

This is a wonderful dance school run by two women who understand child development. I loved having my little dancers take classes there.

We had a birthday party at the studio last month and it was a blast!! Our family has been part of the ballet school for over two years but this was the first birthday party we held there...it was a great success! The owner and party host, Miss Patty, is a talented, attentive and child-centered ballet teacher who is able to mix knowledge and great technical skill with deft handling of young (and older!) children. The decorations and party assistants helped make the day feel so festive, and the two-hour event ran smoothly and seamlessly between activities. Definitely recommend. You know it’s a great party when the participants say they don’t want it to end. 😊

Great experience, we love it

I take an adult floor barre class and absolutely love it! Valerie is very attentive to everyones needs and will cater the class to what we want to do that day. The class is helping with core strength, and all over body toning. Highly recommend !

I started my daughter at Bay Ridge Ballet since she became interested in dance. It's different from other ballet/dance schools in that it focuses on the art of ballet, rather than competition like every other dance school out there. Miss Patty really takes pride in what she does and it reflects in these kids! The shows they put on are like Broadway productions not like those lame, end of the year recitals at the other schools. My daughter has fun and shows a positive attitude. She has become very impressive to see!

My son and his friend both 10 years old took Hip Hop there.
Great time, great teacher, outstanding owners--very attentive and kind!

Bay Ridge Ballet is an excellent ballet school. Ms. Patty is a caring, patient, and exceptional teacher with a team of teachers who are wonderful. My daughter loves Bay Ridge Ballet and has grown tremendously as a dancer thanks to the school's dedication to each student. The new studio is welcoming, clean, and can easily become a second home to Bay Ridge Ballet families.

My daughter is a student at Bay Ridge Ballet, she loves it. The owner, Ms. Patty is amazing and very talented. She teaches and leads with an extraordinary balance of zen and sharp technique. My daughter's technique has advanced a great deal in the year she's been under Patty's eagle eyes and sweet delivery. It also doesn't hurt that Ms. Patty was also trained by the well respected American Ballet Theater:)

Because it makes kids feel aive

Outstanding ballet boot camp class -- it just flew by! Valerie is fun, engaging and gorgeous to watch. She customized the class to the level of fitness (which I appreciated). Highly recommended.
