adult Ballet Program
Classical Ballet Training for Adults in Rochester, Minnesota
BalletCorps is proud to offer authentic, classical ballet training for adults in a welcoming and supportive environment. Whether you’re brand new to ballet or a returning dancer, our classes follow a traditional and thoughtfully paced progression. Each class begins with a pre-barre warm-up and pliés, then moves through slow extensions and structured combinations, building all the way to grand battements (yes—big kicks!).
Combinations are carefully tailored to the dancers in attendance, with great care taken to challenge and encourage adult students without overwhelming them. We’re always happy to break down technique, offer clarification, and answer questions along the way.
Weekly morning adult ballet classes are now in session!
Our adult program welcomes dancers of all experience levels—whether you’re stepping back into the studio after years away or trying ballet for the very first time. Each class is taught in a supportive, take-at-your-own-pace environment that nurtures both technical growth and the joy of movement. Wear whatever makes you feel comfortable and ready to dance.
