NWA Conservatory of Classical Ballet 3111 Southeast J Street, Bentonville, AR 72712

"I regret to say we had a terrible first experience here. Basic safety and caring for the kids is a problem. We were supposed to have a trial class ballet for an hour and tap for the next half hour. The ballet teacher was supposed to tell the tap teacher my 5 year old would join. Instead, the ballet teacher forgot, the tap teacher wouldn’t let my kid in, and my kid was found crying in the lobby by another parent who was kind enough to call me and sit with her till I arrived. However, a 5 year old left unsupervised in a lobby with an open door leading to a parking lot and busy street could have led to disaster. Nobody seemed particularly concerned or apologetic , leading me to wonder if this happens often. Even if they are excellent dancing teachers, it’s a bit pointless if I’m worried about basic safety and caring for the kids."

"Honestly, I realized that I love dance theater. I'll be making a point to see many more performances."

"This ballet studio is a blessing! The staff are very professional, kind and welcoming! We started my 3 year old in the mommy and me classes last year and my daughter was sick off and on for about two months. They refunded those months, Since it was the end of the semester! There was even a problem with the refund and the owner and Jennifer were so kind in fixing it asap! We came back the next semester and I also added my 9 year old to classes as well! The owners and leadership are wounderful here and it shows in the staff! My girls love their teachers❤️"

"Love that they have a boy ballet class in addition to their other RAD syllabus class curriculum, with progress reports and ballet exams. A wonderful opportunity for our kids here in NW Arkansas."

"Kudos to the NWA Conservatory of Classical Ballet! This organization is home to some of the best ballet instructors, staff, Guild members, and (ballet) parents ever! I proudly and shamelessly recommend the Conservatory to any (aspiring) ballet dancer - who seeks an environment where students are treated as equals; and are taught objectively to EXCEL!!"
