These are the pieces of ballet classes for 2 year olds at the Roseville studio, not a generic style list.
What Auburn parents actually ask before they drive 22–25 minutes
They just turned 2 and you want something besides library story time. You stay. That is the design, not a failure. Auburn families tend to make this decision based on Old Town Auburn traffic and if 22–25 minutes works for your week.
Diapers are fine
This is not a potty-trained-only club. Tell us if we need a pause.
A door into preschool dance
When they can leave your lap, preschool dance or 3-year-old ballet is the next room — same hallway.
Ballet words, toddler tempo
Plié shows up as a game. We still say the word so it means something next year.
You are supposed to stay
Parent-and-tot is the 2-year-old format. We will not close the door on minute one.
What age 2 (parent-and-tot / creative movement) class actually looks like
You will look silly. That's the job. Songs, scarves or props some weeks, a march, a bow. Short. Schedule note: Preschool-hour and Saturday blocks. Weeknight 4 p.m. is often too late for a 2-year-old -- ask before you fight bedtime. Billing: Tuition is auto-billed on the 1st. Classes are not pro-rated for missed days, holidays, or the two week summer and winter breaks. Disenrollment requires 30 days written notice.
