The Greenville Ballet School’s experienced, professional faculty offers instruction and performance opportunities in Classical Ballet, Pointe, and Modern Dance. See what our students can do. We offer a quality experience in a quality environment. Andrew and Merry Kuharsky are Greenville’s best and most experienced ballet teachers. We have four spacious studios with sprung wood floors for safety and a curriculum where students safely learn the proper techniques at each age.  Our commitment is always to doing what is right for the student. Though it would be easy and lucrative to give in to pressure to advance students beyond what they are capable of—and many studios do this—at Greenville Ballet School we always put your safety first.

A Professional School
Our faculty features Andrew and Merry Kuharsky; highly trained professionals who danced with The Atlanta Ballet, Les Grands Ballets Canadiens, and The Joffrey Ballet. They have taught in Greenville for 40 years, including at the Governor’s School and at the Fine Arts Center. This allows them to pass on to your child the accumulated knowledge of many generations of professional dancers, teachers and choreographers with whom they have worked.

When choosing dance classes, we believe that all dance students should start their training with the foundation provided by the technique classes in Classical Ballet appropriate to their age and experience. We also offer separate Performance Classes for students who would like to participate in our annual production of The Nutcracker and/or perform an extra piece of choreography specially created for them for our Spring Showcase. Modern Dance classes are also available. Our faculty will help select the best level for any experienced students and advance students according to their progress, with safety and best learning outcomes always in mind.
