We make dance fun while learning. Classes rooted in the foundation of ballet begin at age 2 and build to age 7. The Joffrey Ballet School Children's Ballet curriculum was created to encourage age appropriate creativity, musicality, and physicality. Your child will dance and have fun with an emphasis on the foundations of ballet. Dancers will be guided through creative movement, basic ballet steps and more!

Classes will be taught in person at our Manhattan or Long Island City studios.

For students who are new to dance, we offer the opportunity to take a trial class before registering!

The Joffrey Ballet School Youth Ballet Program is a great program for the beginner to the advanced dancer and provides a nurturing and fun learning environment. The dancer learns ballet in a fun classroom setting with music in each class.

The learning experience elevates the ballet tradition embracing both the fun and discipline of dance. The dancer will learn dance terms and the building blocks of movement to progress onto more advanced levels of dance training. Music makes this learning environment unforgettable, enriching and fun.

Classes will be taught in person at our Manhattan or Long Island City studios.

This program has two fabulous and huge performances each year.
