Advanced Adult Classes

Advanced Ballet


Our Advanced Ballet class presents dancers with an opportunity to strengthen their core technical skills.  This class is held on Tuesday nights from 7:30-8:30pm, and the monthly tuition is $35.  This class is open to all dancers, and it is separate from all other classes.  Please note that this class does not perform in our End of Year Revue.  We treat this class as supplemental instruction for any dancers wishing to continue pushing forward in their ballet technique.  We request that dancers wear a leotard, tights, and their hair pulled back for this class.



Private Lessons


Wanting some extra attention to improve your skills?  We offer private lessons at Storytellers in the styles of Tap, Jazz, Ballet, Contemporary, and Hip Hop!  Lessons cost $25 per half hour, or $40 per hour.  Due to high demand, please note that private lessons are reserved for registered members of our competition team or recreational students.  If you are interested, please contact us to arrange a lesson, and we will find a time that works for you!

Our Classes and Special Offerings

A Family Friendly Studio in Indian Trail, NC

Our recreational program is designed for dancers of all ages and dance experiences.  This includes young, beginner dancers all the way through our advanced adults!  The recreational classes at our studio are taught at a level that will allow dancers who so desire to use them as a stepping stone to join our competition team.  They are also designed to allow students who are not interested in dancing competitively and who would like to remain in our recreational program to continue to advance in their dance education.  We always seek to help our dancers excel in a positive, safe, and encouraging environment.  We offer recreational classes in the styles of Tap, Ballet, Jazz, Hip Hop, and Contemporary/Lyrical.  For more information on any of these classes, please contact us!  Registration is now open for our upcoming 13th season, with all classes beginning the week of September 2nd, 2025!
