Preschool Ballet and Rocklin
Rocklin grew by over 14,000 people in 2010-2020. The RUSD performing-arts offerings are mostly middle and high school, so a family with a 2- to 6-year-old is usually looking off-campus for a legitimate class (not a drop-in rec-center Saturday).

Preschool Ballet — what we actually teach
These are the pieces of preschool ballet at the Roseville studio, not a generic style list.
What Rocklin parents actually ask before they drive 8–10 minutes
You want ballet before kindergarten without a serious-studio attitude. Morning and Saturday blocks are only because preschoolers are wrecked at 6 p.m. For Rocklin families, the choice is typically based on Sunset Whitney Recreation Area traffic and whether 8–10 minutes can be fit into a week.
ECE lesson plans
Teachers are trained in early childhood education. The class looks like good preschool with better feet.
Listening is the hidden curriculum
Turns, freeze, wait your turn. Kindergarten teachers notice that more than a perfect tendu.
A ramp into ballet & barre
When they can stand a more technical hour, they move to the ballet page. Same director, same building.
Studio and on-site
We also teach at area preschools. This page is the Roseville studio class — call if you want the on-site question.
A normal week in preschool ballet
Add ballet vocabulary and tap-adjacent play on some days if they are in the larger preschool program - ask which class you are booking. Listening is half the point. "Line up" is a skill. Calendar note: Weekday mornings, afternoons and Saturday. That is how we pair half-day preschool and nappers. Billing: Tuition is automatically billed on the 1st. Classes are not prorated for missed days, holidays or the two week summer and winter breaks. Disenrollment requires 30 days written notice.
