Ballet Classes for 2 Year Olds — what we actually teach
These are the pieces of ballet classes for 2 year olds at the Roseville studio, not a generic style list.
What Citrus Heights parents actually ask before they drive 8–12 minutes
You aren't sure this is ballet at all — and you are right to ask. Saturday morning exists for nappers. Say the word “nap” when you call. Citrus Heights families usually decide this based on Sunrise Mall traffic and whether 8–12 minutes fits the week.
Ballet words, toddler tempo
Plié shows up as a game. We still say the word so it means something next year.
Director-built, not a YouTube class
Melissa has taught young children since 2005. The playlist is not the curriculum.
Diapers are fine
This is not a potty-trained-only club. Tell us if we need a pause.
Nap-honest scheduling
If 4 p.m. is a disaster, we look at Saturday 9–noon or a daytime preschool-hour block.
A normal week in ballet classes for 2 year olds
You will look silly. That is the job. The next step is 3-year-old pre-ballet without you on the floor --- when they are ready, not when the calendar says so. 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.
