Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to return to ballet!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just had my first class this morning, it was so much fun ! I would like to thank Jane for her guidance, she is such an amazing teacher and I finished the class feeling really inspired and motivated. Everyone here were so kind and lovely, it is a place where you will feel comfortable trying out new hobby. Cannot wait to be back for more classes soon !Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend to adults of all ages and of all dance abilities. Jane is expert at catering to who is in the class on the day, ensuring that the ballet class is challenging yet accessible enough to each individual. What I really love about Jane is how well prepared and how genuinely passionate she is when she arrives for class. The exercises, combinations and dances are always new and interesting, while still having the opportunity to work on the techniques we have covered in previous classes. Not only is Jane a beautiful dancer from having such an amazing career, but she’s truly a gifted teacher- I can assure you, not everyone who can dance can teach! It’s a gift Jane has. I love the artistry that she can share with us students. It’s those finer details that can make the most simplest of positions or phrases truly spectacular. When we are in her class, it’s like we all become a corp de ballet! A very rewarding experience.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I knew nothing about ballet and just wanted to try something different. I had no previous dance experience or anything but had no problems following along in class! The environment is super supportive and inviting with amazing knowledgeable teachers. I feel like in just a term I have really improved and learned a bunch.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have just completed my first term of classes with City Adult Ballet and I loved it so much I have just booked in for term 2. Jane has been so welcoming from day 1 and is always available to answer any questions and assist where she can. I have really enjoyed Kyle’s class, after having not attended a ballet class for over 10 years Kyle is patient and extremely talented. Thank you to City Adult Ballet for providing such a welcoming and supportive experience.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I love dancing with City Adult Ballet - it is a wonderfully inclusive place to dance as an adult, whether you're a seasoned dancer or trying on ballet shoes for the first time. Jane is a dedicated and attentive teacher who brings out the best in her students.

In love with City Adult Ballet and their staff!! These classes are perfect for whatever level you’re at! I had come from the US after doing strict ballet almost 40 hours a week, and I hadn’t been able to find what I was used to in casual classes. I was able to be pushed while also having a great time at City Adult Ballet! If you’re a beginner, it’s also amazing, and the energy is perfect to support whatever level you’re at! Definitely sign up! Would recommend to anyone! -Jane is also the best teacher and best energy you could get in a room! Do yourself a favor by taking one of her classes!! ;)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jane is the most lovely teacher!! Classes are so supportive, and a good challenge at every level - from complete beginners to experienced dancers. Would highly recommend!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been going to city adult ballet for a year now - and it has been so joyous to return to ballet and dance. The environment is so welcoming, and Jane is such an enthusiastic, supportive, and warm teacher - exactly the kind of teacher I wish I’d had doing ballet growing up! There is an excellent balance of technique, performance qualities, and enjoying body movement and dance. I cannot recommend the classes enough for whichever stage you are in your dance journey - absolute beginner or advanced, the classes cater to all and are really just lots of fun, and a highlight of the week!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
