While visiting Seattle, I was eager to restart ballet after my knee surgery. I took a barre stretching class and I loved every minute of it. Veronica provided very detailed guidance, and her teaching style made the class so friendly and uplifting. I will definitely visit again when I’m back in Seattle!
What a GREAT studio!
I’ve been taking Soleil's ballet classes for a few months now, and already my technique has improved significantly! I’ve noticed when I take her class afterwards I feel so free, her classes really put the life back into you.
Such a lovely and welcoming dance studio. I enrolled in the adult ballet course and it's easily become the highlight of my week. Challenging but not overwhelming, the hour flies by, and I see progress every week. Thank you for offering this class!
