The Shenandoah Academy of Dance opened in 1999
to offer an opportunity for young community dancers
to seek out an option to the current offerings for
classical ballet training.
Classes offered include
classical ballet for all ages, beginner, intermediate and
advanced pointe and children’s jazz.
In December of 2012, Artistic Director, Missy Floyd,
founded the Shenandoah Ballet. The newly formed
ballet company will continue the Academy’s tradition
of performing full-length classical ballets for the
community. Students at the Shenandoah Academy of
Dance and the surrounding studios will be offered a
chance to audition for a position in the Shenandoah
Ballet. The ballet company will also continue the
tradition of offering roles to younger children as well as
the members of the surrounding community. The
ballet company will continue to produce the only fulllength, “Nutcracker”. Other ballets performed include,
“Cinderella”, “The Sleeping Beauty”, “Coppelia” and
the 2013 spring ballet, “Alice in Wonderland”.
In January 2012, the studio welcomed Mr. Valery
Lantratov of Moscow, Russia to teach a master class!
This marks the first ever international guest star to
teach at the Academy. Mr. Lantratov has made return
trips to the studio to offer the dancers more
opportunities to learn from such an amazing dance
educator!
Students of the academy have auditioned and earned
acceptance into a variety of summer intensive
programs such as the Texas Ballet Theatre, the
Richmond Ballet, the Joffrey Ballet School, the
Louisville Ballet School, Atlanta Ballet School, the
Rock School in Philadelphia, Pa., the Cincinnati Ballet
School, the Kirov Academy of Ballet in Washington,
D.C. and the Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet, to
name a few. Alumnus of the Academy have gone on
to major in dance at Muhlenburg College, Brigham
Young University and Shenandoah University.
The studio is located at 2271 Sycamore Avenue,
Buena Vista, Va. The studio boasts a fully sprung floor
to promote safety for your dancer. Students attending
classes at the academy are given individual attention
as our teachers strive to provide the best classical
ballet training available!
