"I took Violeta’s class at Steps on Broadway in March 2024.
Her class was so good and she warmed us up well. And she taught the class with a lot of fun. Everyone was tired because it was a Sunday, but everyone enjoyed the class because of her energy."

“Violeta's class is excellent on many levels - the combinations are so well designed, that there is a clear through-line not only from the begining to end of each one, but also throughout the entire class - a priceless quality that you don't experience often outside of an academic setting. Highly attentive, with a warm, gentle personality and a wonderful sense of humor, Violeta inspires, encourages and at the same time gives very important corrections that are equally essential for the professional and the recreational dancer alike. After each class I am not only thoroughly ready for a day of rehearsals, but I also feel I gained something more as a dancer and artist. I really cannot recommend Violeta's class highly enough!”

“V’s classes are great! She is one of my favorite teachers in NYC. Her classes are thorough and well-rounded, with both intricate petit allegro and flowing combinations to let you really dance! I really appreciate V's corrections because she emphasizes the beauty of dance as the reason for technique, and hearing her reminders of the beauty in dance is very helpful and refreshing as an artist. We don't hear enough in other classes about the importance of beauty, but V's class is a breath of fresh air. : )”

The way Violeta demonstrates the exercises, explains and gives corrections is amazing - she's fun, easygoing and she uses comparisons that I remember. My favorite is “when the big muscle is on vacation, the smaller ones have to work overtime.”

"For spring break my dance company set up a wonderful opportunity for us to take classes in NYC and explore what the city has to offer. A fellow dancer and I decided to take Violeta Angelova’s ballet class. I am a young dancer and I was nervous going in to the class not knowing what to expect. When the choreography was challenging she stepped in and gave me the reassurance I needed. I wanna grow in my dance career and she gave me some great advice to help me with my performance. Thank you Violeta Angelova for making this girl from Texas feel so welcomed! I would love to come take another class when I get the opportunity too! "

“Ms. Violeta is a wonderful teacher who gives thoughtful, personalized corrections. I love her energetic style of teaching, and challenging combinations. She is a truly dedicated and passionate teacher!”

"Loved the class, intimidating because it was my first class in New York, but she made me feel welcomed and taught rigorously. When I didn’t get a combo she would break it down and patiently go through the each step with me until I understood. She pushed me to my limits but also made sure I was comfortable and confident in my abilities. I left class feeling accomplished and eager to comeback for more. Thank you for a great experience!"

"The initial reason that I personally reached out to Ms. Angelova to work with my kids, is due to her impressive background in classical ballet. ...
Her classes are meticulously planned, engaging, and tailored to the needs of each student. She has a unique ability to connect with dancers of all ages and skill levels, fostering a positive and supportive learning environment. I am very pleased with her work and how greatly she has improved both of my daughters’ ballet skills. She consistently provides clear and concise explanations, helping my girls grasp complex movements. Not only does she focus on technique, but also emphasizes artistic expression. She encourages my girls to infuse their movements with emotion, musicality, and storytelling.
Whether it’s perfecting a pirouette or refining a port de bras, Ms. Violeta pays meticulous attention to details. She provides constructive feedback and encourages my girls toward continuous improvement. She creates a nurturing atmosphere, celebrates their achievements, no matter how small, and motivate my girls during challenging moments. ... "
