Who It's For

When a Private Lesson Is the Right Choice

Private instruction is not only for advanced dancers. It is the right tool whenever one-on-one focus, scheduling flexibility, or a specific goal demands it.

🎯

Focused One-on-One Training

Every correction, every exercise, every minute is for you. No waiting for corrections to reach you between other students.

🏛

Audition Coaching

Intensive preparation for conservatory, university, performing-arts school, or professional company auditions. Repertoire selection, presentation, and the specific polish an audition demands.

🏅

Competition & Variation Coaching

Variation coaching, choreography refinement, and performance readiness. Students preparing for regional or national competition with a specific piece get the most direct, focused preparation available.

🔧

Technique & Artistry Refinement

For dancers at any level wanting to address specific technical challenges: pirouettes, adagio, allegro, footwork, or the artistry that separates technically correct from genuinely compelling.

🩰

Pointe or Placement Evaluation

For students considering pointe work or needing a placement assessment. Faculty evaluate strength, alignment, and overall readiness and provide structured guidance.

🔄

Returning & Former Dancers

Rebuilding after time away (months or years) with the focused, efficient guidance of one-on-one instruction rather than starting from scratch in a group class.

📚

Catching Up on Fundamentals

Reinforcing technique that needs attention before returning to or advancing in a group class. Targeted, efficient, no wasted time.

Professional Dancer Coaching

Former or current professional dancers wanting individualized work on technique, repertoire, specific roles, or artistic challenges with an experienced faculty member.

🎭

Goal-Specific Preparation

Preparing for a specific role, performance, school audition, or personal milestone. Private sessions build exactly the skills that goal requires.

Why Private

The Value of Completely Individualized Attention

In a private lesson, every moment is yours. There is no waiting for corrections to reach you between other students, no adjusting to a class pace that does not quite fit, no generalizing instruction across a group. The session is built entirely around where you are and where you need to go.

Private lessons at Miami Royal Ballet are taught by the same faculty who lead our regular classes, under the standards established by Founding Director Lourdes Arteaga, a former principal dancer whose approach to individual instruction shapes how every teacher here works. Private students receive that level of care applied entirely to their goals.

Whether you are eight years old beginning your ballet journey, a teen preparing for a competition variation, an adult returning after a decade away, or a professional seeking coaching on a specific technical challenge, private lessons accelerate progress in a way that group classes simply cannot.

Personalized Corrections

Every note is for you, applied to your body and your specific patterns, not the average of a group.

Your Pace, Your Goals

The session moves at the speed that serves you. No rushing past what you need to work on.

Flexible Scheduling

Private lessons can be arranged around your commitments in ways that group classes structurally cannot.

Measurable Progress

Consistent private sessions produce accelerated improvement on targeted skills. The efficiency is real.
