My daughter has been studying ballet at The Ballet Class in Rye for six years. I looked around at other programs in Westchester and am confident that the level of teaching and encouraging atmosphere this studio delivers is in a class of its own. I studied ballet for many years growing up and understand the importance of proper technique. The teachers at The Ballet Class are particularly good at helping students not only execute beautiful technique, but really understand their bodies in ways that are critical to lifelong health. This is a wonderful, welcoming place to study ballet for children and adults from beginner to very advanced levels. Many "homegrown" students have gone on to college dance programs or to pursue careers as professional dancers. My daughter looks forward to every class and especially enjoys the end of the year recital. It is a thrill for the students to learn choreography and perform on stage with gorgeous costumes and sets. No need to travel all the way into the city for world class ballet instruction. It's all right here in Rye at The Ballet Class. And for adults, come and try the adult classes. It is a really eclectic group with varied backgrounds and a very lighthearted atmosphere. I leave class with a great workout and a smile. Such a joy!
