Vermont Ballet Theater School Center For Dance

"Something that makes VBTS stand out from all the rest is that the Intermediate and Advanced classes are taught by faculty who have danced professionally. This is most evident when you watch them work with the dancers individually on their technique and skill set. These amazing teachers bring a high level of professionalism and skill to the studio yet at the same time, maintain a fun and supporting environment. I’ve watched my daughter develop into a beautiful dancer who shows confidence in herself both on and off the stage. We are so lucky to have VBTS in our community!"

"We are fortunate to have the caliber of instruction that VBT offers here in Vermont. Our daughter has been a VBT student since she was 3 years old. She is now 16. She has had the opportunity to perform on the Flynn main stage and received scholarships to premier summer intensive programs because of VBT's excellent training. They have fostered her talent for and love of dance and we are very grateful! Highly recommend."

"Our daughter has loved dancing with VBT since she was 4 years old. Fast forward several years and she continues to develop her love of dance at this amazing school. The teachers are great at providing proper guidance and instruction, in a structured yet fun atmosphere. Even during the stay at home order in Spring 2020 they continued to provide instruction via Zoom, that kept my daughter strong and happy to be dancing despite the different circumstances. I highly recommend the Vermont Ballet Theater School!"

"Best Ballet School in Vermont. Our kids have been studying there for 7 years...and we have watched them, and other students, for years, grow into the best dancers they can be. The teachers are excellent, and the school, students, parents and faculty all act as a community of education and support...and the annual, time cherished, performance of “The Nutcracker” would rival any professional production I have ever seen. I cannot recommend this school highly enough."

"We have been a part of the VBTS family since 2013, when my oldest daughter started in the beginner ballet program. She is now at advanced levels in ballet and jazz and dancing many days a week, and loves every minute. Since then, my other daughter and son have started dance classes there as well. Each of my children has felt enormous support and kindness through this community, as have my husband and I. It is a warm and encouraging atmosphere with an abundance of positivity, which is not always present in the dance world. We love and appreciate all of the teachers and their amazing instruction. Performing in the Nutcracker has been a joy for my kids as well. It is incredibly well done and executed entirely by VBTS. My daughters joined the competitive jazz team a couple of years ago and have enjoyed the new adventures this has presented with their fantastic coach/teacher. We are so happy with the ballet and jazz instruction at VBTS and feel very lucky to have access to this caliber of school in Vermont!"
