Whitley Ballet School offers children and adult classes in Ballet, Jazz, and Tap dance, and is based in Pasadena, California. Our teachers take a fun and caring approach to developing sound classical ballet technique, and a love of dance in the early years. We specialize in helping shy dancers gain confidence. Our ballet classes follow the Royal Academy of Dance syllabus, which provides a strong foundation in classical ballet technique. We provide a safe, nurturing environment where students feel comfortable taking risks and challenging themselves. For young beginners, creative movement and pre-ballet classes introduce students to ballet in a playful way. Private lessons and coaching are also available for students of all levels, including adults.
