I was fortunate enough to discover Julie and Broche ballet through the adult ballet community online and was immediately impressed not only by her knowledge and teaching ability but also by her passion for teaching adult dancers and how much she believes in their ability to progress. I am an intermediate adult ballet dancer and I recently took some private classes with Julie and she was able to understand and correct technique problems that were overlooked by many previous teachers. Her keen eye for detail, wealth of knowledge as well as her constant mission to learn more about anatomy, kinesiology

Julie is seriously AMAZING! Her classes are fun and she has an encouraging, lighthearted tone . .. .. yet . .. at the same time, she is one of those rare people who can distill a complicated skill or concept into an easy-to-understand explanation. I started watching her classes online during the COVID crisis, and Julie takes the time to PERSONALLY give a few words of feedback to each dancer on zoom. Wow!! I started ballet as an adult and I don't have an intuitive understanding of dance. Julie's tips have made clear concepts that I just couldn't 'get' previously as an adult

I danced for most of my childhood years. After getting injured in college, I just assumed I would never dance again. Then I found Broche Ballet. Ballet is the highlight of my week - and even more so now in the middle of the COVID crisis. The instructors are all amazing and so thoughtful in how they teach their classes. I can't recommend Broche enough.

I've been dancing with Broche for more than 6 months, and I highly recommend it if you are completely new to ballet and don't know where to start, like I was. I love the instructors and the dancers that I meet! Julie, the owner, is an amazingly kind individual who is specifically supporting those of us completely new to ballet and dance. The studio is welcoming and flexible with class sizes that are no more than 4. The cost is comparable to any monthly fitness membership like Pilates or something. I am working hard to dance on pointe someday, which has always been a dream of mine. It
