There are still a few additions and changes to be made. I will respond asap. Fee includes Nutcracker shirt, costumes rental, rehearsal time. First come first serve, reserve seating only. Other free promotion performances may be scheduled. These are not mandatory and will only include excerpts. Not all dancers will be needed.

These performances are fun and a great opportunity for our dancers. In addition to participation fee we need PARENTS to participate in ONE category of our Parent Points Production Program. Many hands make for light work. This is going to be an amazing production and a great year! Payments are by cash or check only and fee schedule is based on a 10 month period with 10 equal payments.

I’ve been a student here since I was 4 years old. I’ve always loved how ballet is taught classically yet still having a laid back environment. The teachers enjoy what they do which makes it all the difference. I have also taken classes like modern, contemporary, musical theatre, and more at the studio and love them just as much as the ballet!

Great teachers that were both professional and friendly with the kids. Sadly Covid stopped my daughter's dance lessons, but the school was great in offering online lessons when we couldn't actually go into the studio. Unfortunately my daughter never got the chance to go back because soon after we moved away from the area, but she definitely loved her ballet lessons!

Wonderful ballet studio. My daughter has been working with Ms. Noreen for 2 years (she's now 5) and has learned and grown so much! The studio and teachers care about teaching children technique, making it fun, and giving positive reinforcement. Highly recommend Ballet Conservatory!

We LOVED the instructors, we recently moved and miss them dearly. My daughter started dancing when she was 4 til she was 8. Ms. Dana and Ms. Poppell we’re her instructors; they have standards but still have fun without it being a being competitive setting.
The Nutcracker was a yearly tradition that my daughter and her friends would look forward to each year they would have a new part each year. It is a experience that you, your family members and your daughter or son will remember for a lifetime.
Try out a class and see what works best for your child. :)

My daughter has taken ballet and tap classes at Ballet Conservatory since 1st grade, and she is now almost through high school. She has also enjoyed musical theater/jazz classes as well. As a parent, I like that all students can participate each year in the Nutcracker production and a Spring recital. I have always felt that my daughter continued to want to dance here because she was taught in an encouraging and positive environment.

My daughter took dance at Ballet Conservatory the entire time we lived in Niceville. She absolutely loved it. Mrs. Noreen is a fabulous teacher and definitely a professional when it comes to ballet! It’s a smaller school so it has a family friendly vibe!!

My daughter has been with the ballet conservatory for about 2 years. In this time, I have seen the development not only of her grace and technique but also her confidence and character. The instructors are dedicated. Ms. Poppell truly cares about each of her students and treats everyone like family.

All 3 of my girls have danced at the Ballet Conservatory. All of the instructors are knowledgeable, patient, and kind. The performances are always well organized and lovely. The Nutcracker is the event my girls look forward to being a part of every year. Would highly recommend Ballet Conservatory for any dancer.

We have our granddaughter enrolled here and thoroughly love the environment. She is learning more than just dance...she is learning discipline, the rewards of putting in the effort to learn and succeed, and other life lessons. We highly recommend the Ballet Conservatory to parents (and grandparents) who want to provide a safe, secure and beneficial environment for their children to learn and grow.
