Tutu School Brier Creek

In the Primary Ballet Prep division we develop pure, fundamental ballet technique that will eventually allow our students to graduate to a more disciplined study of the craft – when their growing bodies are ready. In the meantime, we’ll continue to practice our pliés with a healthy helping of magical fun, thank you.

Classes in our Exploring Ballet division strike a perfect balance between structure and creativity. In this division we begin carefully laying the earliest foundation of ballet technique, but we always compliment our class work with fun, imaginative activities that keep young dancers captivated, engaged, and utterly in love with ballet.

Our goal in our Tutu Toddlers division is to work with you to engage your little one and give them an early experience with ballet they’ll never forget. Why? Because at Tutu School we believe that exposing children at a very early age to creativity, movement, and music can only lead to good things. The core purpose of Tutu Toddlers classes is to get little ones in a room with music and movement, and to give them space to fall in love with both! Tutu Toddlers are discovering all of the wonderful things their little, growing bodies can do. Exploring new ways of moving through dance stories and games builds both coordination and confidence. We never expect Tutu Toddlers to come to Tutu School knowing how to take a class, share props, or take turns – that's a part of what we get to start learning together!

The joy of play & connection. Ballet for babies? We’re so glad you asked. It’s never too early to expose little ones to movement and music, and Baby Ballet is a carefully curated curriculum for infants aged 6-18 months, with lots of opportunities to foster both caregiver bonding and age-appropriate development.

5 to 8 years old. Ballet inspired sessions for children ages 6 months through 8 years. Children learn the basics of ballet in a thoughtful progression, preparing them for more advanced study as they continue on their dance journey.

3 to 5 years old. From movement games to Ballet Storytime, we believe in exercising not only little bodies, but also big imaginations.

18 months to 3 years old with caregiver participation. Learning to take a class with others is a part of what we practice, along with our pliés and pirouettes.

6 to 18 months old with caregiver participation. Even the tiniest dancers at Tutu School learn the basics of ballet in a thoughtful progression, so that they are ready for more advanced study as they continue on with their dance journey.

To schedule a make-up, please log in to your Pirouette Portal. No need to report absences to us – your make-up class credits will be automatically noted on your account. You’re welcome to use them at any time while you are enrolled!

On any given day at Tutu Camp, a child might take a ballet class, decorate costumes, learn the story of a famous ballet, or even take part in a production of their own creation. Magic seems to multiply at camp, and Tutu Campers always come twirling back for more.
