Boston Chamber Ballet

This studio is a little gem in the ballet world. After a professional performing career, I was pretty beat up. I found Alexandra, who patiently helped me undo the bad habits I’d formed and set me on a path to proper placement and correct biomechanical movement patterns. And it was all done in an atmosphere of encouragement and respect while dancing to her beautiful and thoughtful combinations. She also has a wonderful understanding of music and musicality. I must say that, in my years with Alexandra, I experienced the joy of dance more fully than I ever had before. She is truly a gifted TEACHER.

This is the place for: fantastic foundation in ballet; committed personalized instruction; learning great alignment and technique off which to build strength; learning to dance from wherever you’re starting. The studio is not fancy and the dressing room is bareboned but the studio utself opens into the garden so it feels like your dancing among the flowers! A kinder and more thoughtfull person you will never meet than the instructor. But you must be in 100%. She’s serious and no nonsense. She gives it her all and will expect that of you, whether it’s only once a week or everyday. Working with her is life changing! Though i danced with her through the 90s the lessons have remained with me for life! You should give it a try. You won’t be sorry.
