Positive: Professionalism
I have been attending the New Ballet School for their summer intensive for 3 years now. I am proud to say that I have grown so much with my technique thanks to the professional ABT certified faculty. I have made life long friendships with people I am still in contact with every day. I have been thriving in ballet classes ever since.

Professional, organized, two big shows for dancers to showcase their skills, one in the winter and one in the spring. My daughter has been dancing for 11 months and we are very pleased with the instruction that she received from a variety of teachers It is conveniently located close to public transportation and many nice restaurants in downtown.

This is the best traditional ballet school outside of SF. It is the only school where all faculty is trained and certified by ABT. Perhaps most importantly, health and appropriate development is focused, with a Psychologist on staff.
If you compare to many other schools, make sure the others don’t start on pointe too early. NBS makes sure each child is ready, but doesn’t let it hold them back from progressing to higher levels.
