Littleton Ballet Academy - Littleton, Colorado

Bethany Sollenberger

This dance school provides a wonderful balance of care for each their students, while focusing on exceptionally high standards of education and expertise. Their performances are of professional quality, and the way they know and care for each dancer is unlike anything I've ever seen in a dance school. They truly create a community of achievement and connection at this dance school. Our children have all danced at Littleton Ballet Academy, and we have had a wonderful experience at this school!

After spending my 2023 year dancing at Littleton Ballet Academy, I can confidently recommend dancers to find another studio. My experience at LBA consisted of rehearsals where I was barely taught the choreography. I remember being in rehearsal when one of my peers was absent, and the director (who you would think should behave like an adult), was talking behind her back about the number of friends she has. Totally ridiculous.  There were a couple of instances where I was deridingly asked if I was a "smart girl," by a director repeatedly. I remember being yelled at by the director in a studio filled with people because I was watching the other cast's rehearsal and not marking/rehearsing it (when watching is a form of learning). It was also a huge waste of money, because I was at LBA for several hours every day of the week and barely had any pointe classes the entire time I was enrolled. I remember a director asking me why I had to leave rehearsal, and I told her it was because I was feeling nauseous. She replied," Oh! Nauseous, we thought you were obnoxious." I wish I had my wasted time, money, and energy back.

If you want to grow in technique, musicality, and not be talked about behind your back or yelled at by a fuming, angry director, go elsewhere, because there are ballet schools in the area that offer just that and more.

I do not dance there but I did do their summer intensive and it was one of the coolest things I have ever experienced. I dance at a competitive studio which is not ballet focused and I wanted to go here because I needed to improve my technique. Not only are the staff and teachers amazing but the kids are all so nice and welcoming. The teachers are all there to push you and make everyone the best they can be. I only took the intensive for 2 weeks and when I got back to my studio, my teachers all asked if I have been doing a lot of ballet and that they can tell. I really recommend their studio or intensive!!

I have been dancing at Littleton Ballet Academy for about 10 years and I can't say enough about this studio. The environment is an amazing atmosphere to grow up in; I couldn’t ask for more! The teachers and directors are some of of the most courteous and generous people I know. They have helped me and many other kids and adults through thick and thin. They have taught me my most valuable lessons. The students are friendly and hardworking. Instructors teach students not only dance, but the skills to succeed in life as well. To list a few: time management, proper etiquette, and kindness. The studios and lobby are quite spacious and updated. Overall, this is a great studio for those of all ages and levels!

I’ve been a student here for 10 years. This studio not only teaches you how to succeed in dance, but also in life. Littleton Ballet Academy has become a second home to me, providing me with a caring and hard working environment. All of the teachers and staff are amazing at what they do. The people here are extremely kind towards everyone. I would definitely recommend this studio for all ages and levels.

Littleton Ballet Academy has been an incredible studio for me. I started dancing with the studio when I was just 12 years old and trained in ballet, tap and jazz. Ali and Bobbie taught me from the beginning what hard work looked like and what you can achieve if you believe in yourself. The studio has always been a safe place for all students and teachers and is a special community in itself. I loved all the time I spent at the studio working hard and learning everyday. LBA always has a special place in my heart and I am forever grateful to the staff.

My daughter has been dancing here for 6 years and we couldn't be happier with what she has learned. Not only do they teach beautiful dancing with great technique, but they also teach leadership and the importance of community. I highly recommend this studio!

This studio is amazing. As a mother I am always thrilled when my daughter finds passion in her interests, and this studio knows how to both build her passion and build her character as a young woman. Each teacher takes the time to get to know each child and their strengths and needs, it is incredible! The technique and skill I have seen from my daughter since she has come to this studio (almost 2 years ago) has been tremendous. This is important, of course, in developing her perseverance, determination, and focus. But more importantly, she has developed a great sense of confidence in herself, responsibility, and kindness. I am so grateful to Littleton Ballet Academy for taking the time to encourage my daughter, challenge my daughter, and celebrate her all the way through. If you are looking for a studio that can teach impeccable skill as well as a high standard of character...this is the place.
