I love complaints

Here is why:

The appropriate way to address this is by communicating respectfully and directly with me. Please refrain from contacting my teachers, as they are merely implementing my instructions. If you have any concerns about a regulation or rule, I urge you to reach out to me directly. I am keen to hear your feedback.

I cant fix a problem I am unaware of. Please contact me contact@piridance.ch or by WhatsApp 79.887.12.11

I cannot implement every change that people want me to make. However, if a change aligns with our mission statement and enhances our classes or services, we will do everything possible to accommodate it.

I will not tolerate any disrespect towards my teachers. They are my queens, and I expect you to treat them with the same respect you wish to receive. Your children will benefit from a better class if the teachers feel respected and safe at Piri Ballet.

Trial Classes at Piri Ballet

Everything you need to know about trial classes at Piri Ballet

TRY AND DECIDE AFTERWARDS

Your initial class with us is always considered your complimentary trial class. After this session, you can choose whether or not to continue with us. By booking your class online, you are reserving that spot for the dance year.

WHEN TO TRY / JOIN

Starting as soon as possible ensures that your child can progress alongside their peers and begin preparations for the end-of-year show. Even if you've missed the initial weeks, there's no need to worry. Our patient and encouraging teachers are here to support late starters.

Upon deciding to join us after the trial class, any missed classes prior to the trial will be deducted from your first invoice. While we can't guarantee show participation for those who sign up later, it will be determined based on the specific class and student. After the trial class, our teacher will happily guide you regarding your child's level and potential show involvement.

Rest assured, as long as spots are available, you're more than welcome to join us at any point during the school year.

CHOSING THE LEVEL

Please choose the course that matches your child's school grade. Although these age ranges are typically effective, be aware that during the trial class, our teacher will evaluate your child's abilities and recommend the most suitable level—whether it be lower or higher—for optimal advancement.

CHOOSING A TEACHER

Our dedicated teachers are all professionals who are passionate about working with children. Trained in the Piri Ballet method, they uphold our high standard across all classes, ensuring a positive, kind, patient, and fun learning environment. Our classes are designed to be both engaging and challenging.

If you find that multiple classes fit your schedule, feel free to attend trial classes with various teachers. Afterward, kindly inform us of your selection so that we can accommodate other students in the remaining class.

WHERE / HOW TO BOOK

Go to the "Class Booking" tab on our website and click on the right level and then pick from the available times. If the class is fully booked it will show as fully booked, therefore if you can sign up, there are spaces available.

AVAILABLE CLASSES

Please see our schedule below.

WHAT TO WEAR

CLOTHES & HAIR:

No purchases are necessary for the trial class. Students can wear a neat ponytail, leggings, a t-shirt, and socks. If you have a leotard and ballet shoes, you're welcome to wear those.

Should you choose to enroll following the trial class, our on-site ballet store offers a convenient selection of uniform, tights, shoes, and hair accessories. However, you're free to purchase these items from any source as long as they meet our requirements. Refer to the specifications below.

Uniform requirements

ARRIVAL TIME

Normally minimum 5 and maximum 15 minutes before class starts. Make sure to give yourself enough time for parking and finding the location. Your child will feel more comfortable if they do not arrive rushed and/or late.

TRYING WITH SHY CHILD

Prepare your child before hand so they know what to expect

1) Show them this video so they can see what a class looks like

2) Explain to them that you will be bringing them to the studio and show them the space and just before class starts, you will be going outside and you will be waiting for them there. Explain that only students are allowed in the classroom and if they need anything (water, go to the toilet etc) they can ask the teacher.

3) On the day, make sure to arrive 10 minutes early. Get ready for class, take off your shoes and check with the teacher if you can enter the classroom with your child for a few minutes (only if there is no other class in the room). Walk around the classroom with your child for a bit until they feel more comfortable.

WATCHING THE CLASS

You are welcome to watch the class anytime. There is a glass window (one way so students don't get distracted) in the changing room area.

AFTER THE TRIAL CLASS

A) SIGNING UP

Upon your decision to enroll, you can immediately begin attending weekly classes without waiting for our confirmation. We'll handle the necessary details afterward. In the meantime, please send us a text or email to confirm your annual booking, and we'll respond promptly.

Should circumstances change, rest assured you have the flexibility to discontinue your classes with a minimum notice of 30 days. For more information, refer to our General & Financial conditions.

About Us

Piri Dance provides Ballet and Contemporary classes for beginners and intermediates aged 2.5 to 18 years.

Classes for children aged 2.5 to 4 years include 45 minutes of dance-play. Those aged 4 to 6 years engage in 30 minutes of ballet followed by 30 minutes of dance-play. Students aged 7 to 9 years participate in 50 minutes of ballet and 10 minutes of dance-play. For those aged 10 and above, the class consists of 60 minutes of ballet. Every ballet class features a warm-up, barre exercises, stretching, and center exercises such as jumps and turns, tailored to the age and level of the students.

At Piri Ballet, the health and safety of our students are of utmost importance. Therefore, we incorporate warm-ups and cool-downs in every class. We also instruct our students on performing exercises safely to prevent injuries. Our instructors have participated in thousands of ballet classes and are well-versed in what to focus on.

We think that dancing should be both fun and enjoyable, while also enhancing skills, muscle strength, posture, and flexibility.

Every single student is important to us and we try to tailor our classes to make it a positive experience for all our students.

Our studio is in Nyon very close to the train station (2-minute walking-distance). Our students come from different parts of Vaud and Geneva.
