Petit Ballet is part of the SOMA Kids family, created with the unique needs of young children in mind. At ages 4–5, children are developing rhythm, coordination, balance, and body awareness — all essential skills that set the foundation not just for dance, but for lifelong movement and confidence.
In Petit Ballet, your child will explore the early principles of ballet in a nurturing, imaginative environment. Through playful exercises, games, and music, they’ll build musicality, strengthen motor skills, and learn how to work within a group — all while discovering the joy of self-expression through movement.
This class provides an encouraging introduction to ballet structure while also fostering creativity, focus, and social connection. It’s the perfect balance of discipline and fun, helping young dancers grow both physically and emotionally.
For class, we recommend comfortable dance clothes that allow free movement. Children may dance barefoot or in ballet slippers — whichever feels most natural.
These classes run in 4-6 week long sessions.
