What the Galveston Ballet family says

  • “Being a part of Galveston Ballet has been such a positive experience for my daughter! I feel like it has given her such self-discipline, confidence, and focus. I love that it has given her an opportunity for self expression (in addition to the obvious physical benefits of exercise, and improved balance & posture.) The teachers are very professional and hold the children to high standards, and I can see how much pride they take in their dancing. The benefits are clearly physical, mental, and social. I deeply appreciate what Galveston Ballet provides for the children of our community.”

    — Samantha Wiley

  • “Danced for Galveston Ballet in high school (2011) and loved it. I just recently enrolled my daughter into Ballet 1 and was so happy to be back at the studio I joined the Adult Ballet class they offer! Both Janel and Judith have always done such a wonderful job as teachers. I know many other people who both dance for the company or who now have children dancing. Couldn't recommend a better place to learn ballet. They are always professional and so knowledgeable of the art.”

    - Katherine Pompa
