DSBPA is so great! I’ve been taking classes here for a year and a half and I love it. I take ballet, aerial silks, and contemporary and have worked with lots of different teachers. They each have their own individual style/strengths, but they are all invested in every student making progress. As an adult student who started here as a total beginner at everything, it has been a really special experience to work with instructors who take me seriously and make it possible to learn really challenging new skills, but still keep things fun. The school culture is welcoming and supportive, and there are great opportunities to perform (even for beginners like me!) with their partner organization Durham Ballet Theatre. Whether you’re an experienced dancer or a total beginner or somewhere in between, if you’re looking for high quality instruction in a welcoming environment I definitely recommend DSBPA.
