Contemporary Ballet Dallas

- 5400 E Mockingbird Ln Unit 207, Dallas, TX 75206

Welcome to Contemporary Ballet Dallas, a distinguished dance school and company located in the vibrant heart of Dallas, Texas. For years, we have been a cornerstone of the DFW arts community, providing exceptional dance education for students of all ages and abilities. Our mission is to foster a love for dance while providing professional, comprehensive training in a supportive and inclusive environment. We believe that dance is a powerful form of expression and a journey of personal growth, and we are dedicated to helping every student—from the smallest toddler to the seasoned adult—find their passion and reach their full potential. With a diverse curriculum that includes everything from classical ballet to modern and jazz, we offer a unique and enriching experience for everyone who walks through our doors.

As a dance studio, we are committed to upholding the highest standards of instruction and artistry. Our classes are designed to build a strong foundation in technique while encouraging creativity and performance skills. We understand that starting a dance journey can be intimidating, especially for young children, which is why we take pride in our patient and encouraging instructors. As one parent shared, their daughter's instructor, Ms. Valya Shipley, helped her get over her initial "trepidation" with graciousness and expertise, setting her "dance career...off on the right foot." We believe this personal connection and professional guidance are crucial for a successful and enjoyable learning experience. For parents in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, Contemporary Ballet Dallas is widely recognized as a "good for kids" institution, a place where children can not only learn to dance but also build confidence, discipline, and lifelong friendships.

We also understand that dance is a lifelong pursuit, and we are dedicated to providing a welcoming space for adults to learn and grow. While we have received a negative review about a past experience in an adult beginner class, we take all feedback seriously. It is a part of our ongoing commitment to improving our curriculum and instructional approach. Our goal is to ensure that every student, regardless of age or experience level, feels supported and receives the personal attention they need to succeed. Our instructors are passionate about teaching and strive to provide a positive and constructive environment for all. We encourage all of our students to provide feedback, which helps us to constantly evaluate and improve our offerings. We are dedicated to providing a high-quality learning experience for every single person.
