Our School

Ballet Academy of Charleston has been THE place for classical ballet training for over 25 years. It is the only studio in Charleston that offers classical ballet ex­clusively! Our school follows the Russian school of training, based on the Bolshoi Ballet’s curriculum.

The studio provides classes for children of all levels and abilities, ages 3-18, as well as Mommy & Me classes for children as young as 18 months. We also have a thriving adult program for beginners to advanced students.   

We offer a spring, fall, and summer semester for all children’s levels in addition to a variety of summer camps and intensives. Adult classes run through­out the ca­len­dar year. 

Ballet Academy of Charleston provides perfor­mance opportunities for dancers who want to grow artistic­ally and develop their stagecraft. Past performances in­clude The Night Before Christmas, Alice in Wonder­land, The Fairy Doll, The Wizard of Oz, and The Rainbow Fish. 

Our mission is to teach the art of classical ballet in a safe, nurturing and pro­fes­sio­nal environ­ment. Our teachers have professional ballet training and ex­perience, and also a passion for passing along their love of dance to the next generation.
