Preschool Ballet — what we actually teach
These are the pieces of preschool ballet at the Roseville studio, not a generic style list.
What El Dorado Hills parents actually ask before they drive 22–26 minutes
You heard we teach at area preschools and you want the studio version. Studio preschool ballet is a real class size and a named teacher — not a cafeteria assembly. El Dorado Hills families usually decide this based on Town Center traffic and whether 22–26 minutes fits the week.
A ramp into ballet & barre
When they can stand a more technical hour, they move to the ballet page. Same director, same building.
Listening is the hidden curriculum
Turns, freeze, wait your turn. Kindergarten teachers notice that more than a perfect tendu.
ECE lesson plans
Teachers are trained in early childhood education. The class looks like good preschool with better feet.
Clothes that survive glitter
Leotard and slippers after they enroll. Trial can be a t-shirt. We have seen the glitter either way.
What ages 2–5 class actually looks like
Showcase is available for children who are ready for a little stage time. We won't guarantee a lead at 4. Listening is half the battle. "Line up" is an art. Availability: Weekday mornings, afternoons, and Saturday. That is our formula for half-day preschool and nappers. Tuition is automatically billed on the 1st. Classes will not be pro-rated for absences, holidays, or our two week summer and winter breaks. Disenrollment requires 30 days written notice.
