I enrolled him in their website that only asks for registration.

I show up to the place 30min early to pay and set up my child for class and the person who opens the door #1 doesn't let me walk in even though it was pouring raining and I'm with my 3yr old and #2 informs me that my child doesn't show up in their system and that they are overbooked that they called a prior day (even though they didn't call me) to confirm and they couldn't take him. This is the second time they do this, cancelled my reservation out of nowhere and don't even tell you how to pay. They have no sense of customer service!

Ballet des Amériques is an extraordinary institution led by a beautiful artistic director of…read morerespect and high class, Mme. Carole Alexis. After being in the school for eight years, essentially growing up here as I am now eighteen years old, I have learned and received high quality dance training, artistry, ethical and moral values, and proper dance and life etiquette. Because of Mme. Alexis, I have been accepted into the summer programs of Washington School of Ballet and Ballet West Academy; I have attended the summer intensives of notable schools such as Paris Opera Ballet School, Bolshoi Ballet Academy NYC, School of American Ballet Theatre, and Juilliard Dance -- where I was allocated at the highest levels. Despite the pleasant memories and the lovely acquaintances I made in these programs, I will always return to Ballet des Amériques as it is because of this school -- along with the faculty and staff, that has made so much possible for me. In Ballet des Amériques, every teacher is attentive and caring towards every single student. There is no tolerance towards negativity including gossip, bullying, rumors, and favoritism. Because of this, the school has a positive professional ambiance that has us students thriving for success. As an upcoming graduate, I see the younger students with nothing but excitement for the firsts they're going to have, and pride for the joy and professionalism they are attaining at such a young age. It has come to my full awareness that Ballet des Amériques cultivates our minds and hearts to become dedicated, passionate, intelligent, and kind human beings, all while teaching the tradition of dance at a high quality. It is my second year as a trainee in the professional dance company of Ballet des Amériques. Through this, I can continue my advanced ballet training, develop my artistry, and learn how to work in a professional environment. I am both honored and humbled to be working alongside amazing dancers and to have the opportunity to learn the exquisite repertoire and choreography of Mme. Alexis. The rigorous rehearsals and the vivid performances continue to fuel the fire of dance in my heart. All in all, I highly recommend Ballet des Amériques as a quality school, and as a company to watch regularly. I have nothing but love and gratitude for Mme. Carole Alexis, and for all of BdA.

I saw Shirley Bassat name mentioned in some negative reviews - I love her! It took a while to get used to her style, but she actually corrects your position, and is warm and caring behind a strict surface. If you have some tolerance of being called out in front of a class, you can make so much progress with her. I also want to mention Vanessa's Pilates classes during the weekend. I've been to many Pilates before, but her class is ADDICTIVE. She tailors the class to everyone there, and remembers everyone's strength, weakness, and goals. She uses different props for each student to make sure even the same move will be most effective for each person on their fitness/ dance journey. She also has a great sense of humor to make challenging classes pass by quickly. The classes are packed and somehow everyone gets individual attention and enough space/ room to practice comfortably.

This was a spur-of-the-moment activity, but a friend of mine wanted to try a ballet class to see if…read moreshe might get back into dance as a hobby. Another friend had taken classes at this academy before and highly recommended it, so the three of us booked an Introduction to Ballet class on Sunday at 12:00. Check-in was quick and easy. The class was $25 for an hour and a half, which I think is very reasonable considering it's from an actual ballet school. There's no strict dress code, which worked out well since none of us owned ballet attire -- we just wore regular workout clothes and socks, and it was perfectly fine. The instructor was wonderful. She started by asking who had never taken ballet before, then positioned the newer students between people with experience so it would be easier to follow along. I really appreciated that, as I have no dance background and definitely found myself lost more than once. Having people around me to follow made it much less intimidating. The class itself was energetic and fun. The instructor was patient, encouraging, and made sure to keep things approachable for beginners. I'm sure my form was atrocious and I messed up plenty of times, but nobody cared -- the atmosphere was supportive and welcoming, and everyone was just there to enjoy themselves and keep trying. The class had people of all different skill levels and abilities, and it felt very inclusive. Overall, this was a great introduction class, especially for someone nervous about trying something new. I never once felt self-conscious, and I genuinely had fun. I'd highly recommend this academy to anyone looking to take dance classes, whether you have experience or not. If I were interested in pursuing ballet, I would definitely come back.
