Academy of Ballet 2121 Market Street, San Francisco, CA 94114

"I have been practicing ballet at the Academy of Ballet for 6.5 years, and I highly recommend its Adult Program for the following reasons: 1. Safe place for EVERYONE You'll see various age groups with different dance levels and abilities. You'll have fun and make lots of new friends from different backgrounds. Zory, Elizabeth, and the other instructors are so patient with everyone. 2. High-quality training There is no difference in the quality of training between the beginning adult and professional courses. Instructors will explain every move in detail and train you with care. 3. Beautiful body You'll see positive changes in your body and in your posture. Stretching at ballet has relieved my body pain greatly; my body thanks me every day for these ballet classes. 4. Strong mind The biggest lesson that I have learned from Zory is to fail with graceful forgiveness to yourself and to keep working on it. I'm so grateful that this practice has changed my attitude at my life in so many positive ways. 5. Live piano music Just imagine. Dancing to classic ballet, along with live piano music, in a charming ballet studio. It is a lovely treat after a busy day! 6. Flexible schedule Once you complete the beginner classes, you're allowed to take other classes up to your level. If you miss a class, you get to come to a makeup class within the next month. 7. Know more and see more Last, you'll enjoy ballet performances so much better since you will know more about ballet positions and moves as an audience. Also, as a ballet student, you will be able to learn from the performers themselves. 지금 당신이 발레를 배우고 싶어 제 리뷰를 읽고 계신다면 고민은 그만! 당장 시작하세요. ^_^)/ 선생님은 몸치인 저에게 발레를 가르쳐주셨고 제 인생까지 바꿔 주셨어요. "

"Welcoming and supportive place and people. If you come to the Academy of Ballet you will be challenged but also encouraged, you will learn and grow immensely and have fun doing so. The decision to join was my best yet and I’m so thankful for the dance and dance family I met here. I took classes for close to 3 years but moved abroad so had to leave (otherwise wouldn’t have stopped!)"

"Zory and the whole academy of ballet team is wonderful, welcoming, and fun. I've been taking adult ballet classes here for almost a year and it's the best!"

"I absolutely love this ballet studio. The staff is friendly and make you feel at home. It's a very small space, one large studio and one smaller studio, so you will know everyone by name very quickly. I started taking the adult beginner 2 month classes, and stayed for over a year and a half. My teachers were mainly Zori and Josh. Both amazing dancers that push you to the limit while having fun. The studio offers many levels of children, teenager, and adult classes. Everyone is welcome! The only reason I stopped going was because I moved back home. I miss this place so much!!"

"The Academy is a comfortable, supportive, environment with dynamite staff. They offer a myriad of adult classes (beginning and up) wherein you can channel (and challenge) your inner-ballerina. A wonderful experience, I couldn't recommend it more highly."
