Scarsdale Ballet Studio

I dance her 4 days a week and I really enjoy it. The instructors are all really nice and make you want to come back. I love that some of the classes I take are small so that you can get more one on one time with the teachers and some of the classes are really big. The technique taught here starts out very basic and moves up as you move up levels (posies, A, B, C, intermediate, conservatory 1, conservatory 2, pre pro and adult class). The dress code is black leotard and pink tights or for freer classes (like contemporary or stretch class) you can wear a leotard and athletic/​comfortable black leggings. The community is really close (u know most of the people by name and some I’m friends with). The teachers really want you to learn and grow as a dancer which has s really nice. There are only 3 studios so sometimes the classes are big but even in larger classes you get to know the teachers well. The only thing that isn’t perfect about SBS is that you have to take a minimum of 3 – 4 classes a week once you reach level C and above. This would be fine if ballet was my only activity, but I also enjoy running and voice throughout the week. I also would like to see more class options than ballet, point, and sometimes contemporary. I really would like to see a jazz, tap, lyrical or Musial theater class available. However this is a great place to be if you are really committed to becoming a great ballerina.
