Amazing!

There are so many things about New Bern Ballet that make it the second home of my granddaughter! Miss Laura provides excellent guidance in teaching not only technique, but also core values the girls will take with them through life. My granddaughter looks forward to ea...ch class and rehearsal and loves her New Bern Ballet family. If you haven't seen one of the productions, you're really missing an amazing experience! This studio definitely teaches the JOY of dance!

A source of inspiration for me

I started dancing at New Bern Ballet when I was maybe nine, and I'm sixteen now. I always found this place a haven where I had structure and support of Miss Elizabeth and Miss Laura. I have companionship with the girls I dance with who I never thought I would be close t...o. This is a place that had inspired me to pursue higher dance education. Originally this was just a benefit to my theatrical pursuits, but as I got older, I stepped out of the theatre world and more into the dance world. This past spring I auditioned for Interlochen's summer program for Modern Dance and I thought I didn't stand a chance in a million. In that audition I saw how Miss Laura and Miss Elizabeth's corrections made me stand out. There were things Miss Laura was so critical about that I now saw that I did differently than other girls. I'm absolutely thrilled that I will be spending three weeks in Interlochen, and if it wasn't for the careful critique and inspiration, I wouldn't be where I am.

Title

I wrote a review when we first moved to New Bern, in 2008. Sure enough, my daughter is now 13 and was a faithful student there for almost 6 years. What wonderful experiences she has had! Entirely too many to list. Her best friends are all New Bern Ballet dancers. Not on...ly did she learn the art of dancing, she has also learned to be modest and humble. New Bern Ballet gave her focus and balance during the past 6 years. She has been accepted into 2 professional ballet intensive programs. I am so pleased that Ms. Laura has been such a big part of her life and has had such a positive impact on her. We are sad to be saying goodbye to New Bern Ballet.

Ballet for my girls and Pilates for me!

This place is FABULOUS! My girls love Ms. Laura! They are really learning the foundations of dance in a fun, exciting way. I keep my core strong with the Pilates class that is offered. Every adult should take this Pilates class, it is great for your back and I should know, I am a chiropractor! Excellent studio!

The Best Ever

New Bern Ballet is amazing. Miss Laura teaches technique in her classes, not just a dance that a student will dance onstage. She teaches from a professional point of view, preparing students for their futures in the arts. Miss Laura helped me catch up to my age level ve...ry quickly after being behind for a long time. Students who dance at New Bern Ballet will learn technique, artistry, acting skills, art skills, costuming, scenery, ballet history, production procedures, and much much more.

Ballet

I think that new Bern Ballet is a great place for kids to learn Ballet. Ms. Laura makes it fun and the young ones especially don't even know that they are doing real Ballet moves. She has a wonderful way with the kids and it shows in their preformance. If you are looking for a place to put your child, this is the place.
