Golden Ballet Theater

I made it to the Royal Academy of Dance to bring back educational ideas, techniques, and psychology to create an exceptional experience for our dancers.

This is a 10-year dream coming true, and my mentor, Ms. Vera Stephenson, has been inspiring me to bring this dream to life.

We love being a resource for the community and becoming a healthy space for dance education and community.

Joy! Being a year early is sheer bliss.

She won't need to know this until next season and is naturally progressing. She practices at home out of sheer love of it. . . that's when you know they love it! Congratulations on your early accomplishment! It's going to be an incredible year!

There's something magical about finding your classical skills. It sets the tone for physical freedom and emotional as well, because creating skills develops self-trust and confidence to be able to do hard things.

This is where ballet gets very fun. . . when you can do more!

Can you believe that 3 of these dancers started as adults!

Even in your 70's, you can learn new things! Consistency, tenacity, and willingness to do it badly until it's understood. Our program features a pace that's not to hard and not to easy.

While we have lots of advanced classes for the seasoned dancer our real specialty is helping you through the learning curve. . . in a fun, vibrant, full-bodied way.

Dance helps you jump into life in a way that I never imagined.

"I feel so alive." -Marian at her first class.

If you've been wanting to learn to dance, ballet is a great foundation for learning dance. You'll surprise yourself!

We are so proud of our dancers and what they accomplish in just a few years. . . our staff is the key to making dreams come true and is the foundation of all that we accomplish in the studio and performance.

Ms. Vera Stephenson is a registered RAD teacher and one of 9 RAD examiners in the US and has helped us create a beautiful foundation for the school. She is kind, knowledgeable, and helps students find their capable, independent selves.

She's an incredible mentor and has encouraged me personally rebuilding the school after Covid and is helping me attain my registered Royal Academy of Dance certification. I'm headed to London in a few weeks for training!

Ms. Vera has studied alongside the creators of the RAD program so she brings a unique piece to our program and has a heart of gold to help our dancers thrive.

Thank you, Ms. Vera, for all you do to encourage our dancers and me, and teachers to be their very best!

"My daughter went from shy to competent and confident."

Seeing a child transform from being too shy to talk to being confident in herself is why we do what we do.

When you create a foundation in dance, you work through lots of challenges, and the result is that you feel free and expansive in your movement and heart.

Because we are connected to our bodies, there is something unique about being able to express yourself and be more of yourself. Your heart expands in dance in a way that is difficult to explain unless you've learned to defy gravity.

These young ladies have worked for years to develop these skills. We are so proud of them.

"Leaps and bounds in confidence, coordination, and flexibility."

Our vibe is different. Intimate, inclusive, and no "crazy competition." -from a dance mom

Just pure support and growth.
