We are incredibly proud to share another exciting honor for our Founder & Director, Mr. Jean-Hugues Feray! 🩰✨

Mr. Feray has been invited by The Kravis Center for the Performing Arts to teach a special Ballet Master Class as part of National Dance Day on September 19!

This invitation is yet another testament to the extraordinary experience and reputation our students are fortunate to have guiding them every day. From his international career as a professional dancer to his continued work as a master teacher, guest faculty member, and competition adjudicator, Mr. Feray continues to be invited to teach and share his expertise at the local, national, and international levels. 🌎🩰

From guest teaching at the Joffrey Ballet School in New York City, to adjudicating for Universal Ballet Competition, teaching internationally, and now once again being invited by the Kravis Center, we are incredibly proud to see his knowledge and passion for classical ballet recognized well beyond the walls of our school.

And the greatest privilege for us? Our Paris Ballet and Dance students receive that same knowledge, experience, and dedication in the studio every week. ❤️

Congratulations, Mr. Feray! We are so proud to have you leading Paris Ballet and Dance and inspiring the next generation of dancers. 🩰✨

🩰✨ ONLY WEEK ONE… AND ALREADY THIS STRONG! ✨🩰

A glimpse into a semi-private coaching session with two of our young Pre-Professional Competition Ensemble dancers, Isabella, 11, and Rowan, 12 — already back in the studio working with incredible focus, strength, and determination.

At such young ages, the technical foundation, control, musicality, strength, and artistry they are developing is truly exciting to watch. This kind of progress doesn’t happen overnight — it comes from consistency, attention to detail, dedicated coaching, and dancers who are willing to WORK. 💪🩰

At Paris Ballet and Dance, we believe in developing young dancers carefully, correctly, and individually, building strong classical technique that will support them wherever their dance journey may take them.

And these two are only 11 and 12 years old! 🤩

So much talent. So much potential. And so much ahead of them.

Week ONE of the 2026–2027 season… we’re just getting started! 🔥🩰✨

🩰✨ AND SO THEIR BALLET JOURNEY BEGINS… ✨🩰

Our littlest ballerinas had their very first class of the 2026–2027 season today, and just look at them! 💕 Three and four years old, moving to the music, learning together, and already discovering the magic and joy of Ballet.

At Paris Ballet and Dance, our youngest dancers are every bit as important as our most advanced students. This is where the foundation begins — with music, movement, coordination, imagination, confidence… and lots of FUN! 🎶🩰

Those tiny steps around the studio today may seem small, but they are the beginning of a beautiful journey. Every accomplished dancer was once a little one taking those very first steps. ✨

First week. First Ballet class. So many adventures ahead! 💕🩰

Welcome to the 2026–2027 Season, little ballerinas! We can’t wait to watch you grow! ✨
