Stavna Ballet

"Wonderful dance studio! It has three large classrooms with full wall mirrors."

"Both of my daughters and I absolutely love Stavna. Not only are they learning how to dance, the dance instructors have become positive role models and they are building meaningful friendships with their classmates. It is a happy environment that is very well organized and year after year the showcases amaze me with creativity! This will be our fourth year coming up and we couldn’t ask for more! ❤️"

"My 11 year old daughter loves Stavna! After trying several other dance studios, we found Stavna a couple years ago. It has a great location and gives dancers not only the opportunity to have a recital each spring, but also gives them the experience of participating in a full length ballet every winter. We would never think of leaving! Not only has my daughter learned excellent technique with ballet, jazz, contemporary, and modern dance, but she has also become a part of a dance family. She has built beautiful friendships with her classmates and has had excellent role models in the older dancers who look out for her and help her with performances. The teachers are talented and caring, and my daughter loves going to class each week. Thank you, Stavna!"

"Performances are captivating. The Academy is enriching. The entire Stavna experience is inspiring. Stavna is exactly what I wanted for my daughter. The quality of instruction is unmatched in Richmond. This is real ballet with proper technique and imaginative choreography. I love the balance of classical ballet with a contemporary edge. Equally important is the culture - it’s healthy, kind and disciplined. The teachers truly care for the students. And it’s appropriate - you won’t find inappropriate music or costuming at Stavna. The icing on the cake is exposure to the professional ballet company. We are thrilled to be a part of Stavna."

"Our daughter danced with a few other dance companies in the Richmond area before Stavna opened on Robious Road – so it was clear to see that Stavna Ballet was truly different. Stavna Ballet has wonderful and positive instructors who have pushed our daughter to develop amazing skills while still having a wonderful time in the process. As a result, our daughter loves to dance, often doing so in her free time at home with a smile on her face as she practices routines or applies her skills to invent new ones. When it comes to the performances, our daughter feels like she is part of a big-budget professional show (which they really are, as opposed to the school talent-show feeling we had with other dance companies). She is so proud of her accomplishments and we are so happy with our decision to be a part of the Stavna family!"
