Summer Drop-In Ballet Classes

& Private Training

Not every family can commit to a full summer intensive schedule — and that’s okay.


Our weekly summer ballet classes offer a flexible way for dancers and adults to stay connected to training, continue building technique, and enjoy consistent movement throughout the summer.

Whether your dancer is supplementing an intensive, staying active between camps, or simply continuing their ballet journey, these classes are designed to meet you where you are.

Youth Ballet — Ages 8+

Mondays | 5:00 – 6:15 PM
Tuition: $24 per week

This class is designed for youth dancers ages 8 and up who want to:

Maintain technique and strength over the summer

Build consistency and musicality

Stay connected to classical training in a supportive environment

Perfect for dancers in Preparatory, Junior, and early-level programs.

Adult Ballet

Mondays | 5:45 – 6:45 PM
Tuition: $18 per week

Our Adult Ballet class welcomes dancers of all backgrounds — whether you are:

Returning to ballet after time away

Exploring ballet for the first time

Looking for a consistent, inspiring movement practice

This class focuses on technique, strength, flexibility, and the joy of dancing.

Private Lessons Available

Does regular programming not fit your family’s summer schedule — but you still want to continue training?

We offer private lessons with members of our talented teaching team, customized to each dancer’s goals and availability.

Private lessons are ideal for:

Technical refinement

Audition preparation

Pointe work

Individual coaching and goal setting

👉 Contact us to schedule private lessons this summer.

What is the Conservatory Track?

What are your tuition policies?

We offer 3 payment plans: monthly, semesterly, and yearly. The first and last months of tuition are due at the time of registration. For Conservatory dancers, 30 days of notice must be given to withdraw from the program and tuition must be paid for the full 30 days before the financial agreement is absolved in lieu of paying the first and last months at the time of registration (due to the higher tuition rates). Tuition can be paid by dropping a check into the lockbox at the studio or signing up for auto-pay with your credit card (subject to 3.5% convenience fee). There is a $25 late fee for any payments more than 10 days late. 

Are parents required to stay?

As long as children are toilet-trained, parents are not required to stay during their child's classes. However, we would be pleased to welcome you in our lobby or cafeteria spaces with free wifi!

What are the performance opportunities?

Prima is proud to provide two high-quality performance opportunities per year to our students. Every student can audition in August to participate in The Nutcracker in December. In lieu of a recital, we do a Spring Ballet each year that all students can elect to participate in.
