Celebrate your child’s birthday with a ballet-themed party at BAE for an unforgettable day.
Your child’s special day begins with a fun warm-up that leads into a personalized class with a festive birthday theme. The children dance a ballet birthday story narrated by the teacher. Each dancer receives a crown or wand to dance with and keep. Two studios are reserved for your child’s ballet birthday – one is for dancing, and the other will be set up with balloons, tables, and chairs for cake and refreshments once the dancing is done. Each party includes two highly trained, energetic teachers, a party host, and a pianist. We take care of the set-up and clean-up. Parents supply the paper goods, goodie bags, cake and any additional refreshments.
Birthday Party Prices
11 children and under: $895
12-18 children: $995
To schedule a birthday party, please contact our party coordinator Liliana Chapman at Liliana@baenyc.com.
