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 Fair Oaks parents actually ask before they drive 16–20 minutes
You are unsure this is ballet at all -- and you are right to ask. We call it ballet because we sneak in positions and music. We do not pretend it is Vaganova. Fair Oaks families usually decide this based on Fair Oaks Village traffic and whether 16–20 minutes fits the week.
Diapers are fine
This is not a potty-trained-only club. Tell us if we need a pause.
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.
A door into preschool dance
When they can leave your lap, preschool dance or 3-year-old ballet is the next room — same hallway.
Before you buy the shoes
The next step is 3-year-old pre-ballet without you on the floor - when they are ready, not when the calendar says so. You will look silly. That is the job. 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.
