Nashville Classical Ballet Academy

"If your child is seeking an opportunity to pursue a career in ballet, there is no better option than Nashville Classical Ballet Academy. Aaron and Kristin are extraordinary; our daughter, who began training there just two years ago, traveled recently to Europe and found that her technique.not only stood up against those who'd been trained abroad but in some cases far surpassed it. Words cannot express how grateful we are for NCBA."

"NCBA is the best place to train in the greater Nashville area for ballet students and professionals looking for elite instruction. Kristin and Aaron know ballet from the inside out and not only have they had impressive careers themselves, but they know how to pull out the most from each of their students. I was a professional dancer for 12 years and trained throughout the country prior to and during my career. Too often, there are instructors touting seemingly impressive resumes and name dropping places and people they've worked with, but they don't actually know how to train young dancers into professionals or how to fine tune individual dancer's technique. Kristin and Aaron have both the resumes and the ability to mentor their dancers. They understand the nuances of proper ballet technique and style, plus they bring in truly impressive guest faculty that any dancer would be thrilled to work with. While I was dancing I would go out of my way to take their classes and learn from them, and I would encourage anyone in the area interested in taking their ballet technique to the next level and beyond, to do the same. Furthermore, the persistence, tenacity, and determination young dancers learn from this training will serve them in all other facets of their lives, for the rest of their lives. If you want individualized instruction, attention to detail, finesse in your dancing, an honest and encouraging environment, and the connections to other elite institutions that are advantageous for a career in ballet, look no further."

"A Great school! We have nothing but good things to say about the quality of training our daughter receives at NCBA and the care and attention she gets in progressing towards her ballet goals. THANK YOU Aaron and Kristin!"

"I am so thankful that I found NCBA! Aaron and Kristin pour endless time into each of their students, specifically preparing each one for their individual career. Not only was I given honest counsel, great guest teachers, and personal instruction, but also confidence in who I am as a dancer, and the capability to continue improving in this art form. It’s something you will not find anywhere else in Tennessee for ballet training. I highly recommend NCBA to the serious ballet student."

"For serious ballet dancers ready to take their training to the next level. Nashville Classical Ballet Academy is hands down the best training you will find in Nashville or the surrounding areas. We drive 45 mins from Lebanon to train at NCBA and having my daughter train with Kristin and Aaron has been the best decision. I wish we had found them years ago! My daughter has been dancing since she was 2 but, she started at NCBA in February and the progress she has made in that short time has been truly unbelievable!! Kristin and Aaron make sure every student is receiving the proper training to reach all their dance goals. They DO NOT focus on levels, like many schools do. But, instead they focus on the growth of each individual dancer and making sure each and every student has the proper knowledge and proper technique it takes to pursue careers in this industry if they so wish. I would give them 10 Stars ⭐️ if that was an option. I highly recommend any serious ballet dancers that are ready to train with true professionals and learn from the best check them out. You will not be disappointed!"
