Between the steps, there lies this tension in dance.

The need for everything to be meticulous. Perfect. Graceful. Neat.

But there’s also this need for soul. Emotion. Humanity.

Somewhere within this standard is the balance between what makes us human and what makes us achieve the impossible.

Dancers, we are physically athletic, but soulfully artistic. The balance between art and athleticism is what makes ballet great.

Don’t be frustrated with your progress. Becoming an artist and a dancer happens from the inside out. 🖤

Welcome to our new friends here!

I’m Elyanna, founder of Ballet With Mrs. B (BWMB), and I’m passionate about arts & education. I recently completed my Bachelors (Honors) in Dance Education with the University of Bath and love developing programs that merge wellness, dance, & education. I’m about to celebrate a 20 year career in dance, looking ahead to training the next generation of dancers.

I believe in collaboration and firmly believe you receive what you give. That’s why we don’t just train dancers under our roof. We love sharing our passion, experience, and excitement with as many people as we can.

No matter where you are, we’re here for YOU. Whether you’ve danced with us before, now, or in the future, our goal is to foster a healthy community with a passion to collaborate and celebrate all the beautiful art, culture, and life YOU bring to the table.

Alongside me is my fantastic team:

Jonathan Bradshaw (my husband), an artist passionate about music and sound, and also a financier! He handles our Finance & Accounting Department, so members, you might hear from him!

Jana Kirks, my first ballet teacher and now fellow colleague and partner. With over 30 years of experience in dance, she’s an asset to all her students and mentees.

We are vendors with Heartland Charter School, listed under Elyanna S Bradshaw.

You can find me (Elyanna) teaching ballet at Studio K Dance Company, where we offer specific levels in the Royal Academy of Dance Syllabus, plus other styles of dance!

I love that our preschoolers are always embracing new challenges! This summer, we practiced bounce and jump, backwards and forwards, & in a circle!

Exercises like this helps them develop proprioception, balance, agility, and adaptability all in one exercise!

They were quite tired after this but they embraced the challenge of speed and changing directions with a great attitude!

Preschool and PrePrimary classes are available for ages 3-7 years old! DM us PEARLS for more information!
