Class Experience

Beginner - Advanced Level
This is a teacher-lead group discussion based on students requested ballet-related topics. Each meeting, students will post their questions, concerns, and accomplishments in the chat and the group will review and discuss them during our session.

Let's build friendships together, work on celebrating each other's accomplishments, and being supportive when others need it most.

This is a safe space where dancers can feel comfortable discussing topics related to dance. What is shared in our meetings should not be shared with other peers outside of the group. 

Each week is full of new topics chosen by the students.

I'm a new teacher here on Outschool (but have nearly 10 years of teaching experience). I can't wait to see you in my next class! ❤️

AMBER ROBERTS trained at ballet schools in Virginia from age 7 to adult under Cecchetti, French, and Vaganova methods. She also studied contemporary, jazz, and tap. In her youth, she performed in annual showcases and recitals, danced at public functions, and was often requested to dance solos and choreograph routines for community gatherings. 

Amber holds an Associate of Science Diploma (2006), is a Ballet Teacher (2016-Present), holds a certificate in Strength Training and Injury Prevention (2022), and is CPR and First Aid Certified.

In 2016, Amber began teaching ballet, contemporary, and tap at studios in the Hampton Roads region of Virginia. She teaches beginner to high-intermediate and choreographs routines for year-round training programs and summer intensives. She taught ballet technique for a youth ballet company (2022-2024). She was both a choreographer and rehearsal assistant for several original ballets and has choreographed for and assisted on the set of numerous holiday and Spring performances since 2016.

Amber has trained students who have been accepted into prestigious summer programs including Ballet Magnificat and American Ballet Theatre. She has also guided and trained dedicated students who have gone on to pursue college dance programs, advancing both their dance careers and long-term life goals.

Amber is deeply passionate about enriching dancers' education beyond technical training. She has developed specialized courses to enhance students’ understanding and appreciation of the art form. Some of these courses include: “Master Ballet Vocabulary: Read, Say, and Spell 100 Ballet Terms,” “Discover Ballet History (15th Century to Present Day),” and “Art of Contemporary Ballet: Concept, Connection, Creativity.”

Amber Roberts is proud to include the AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE® National Training Curriculum, a breakthrough 9 level program that combines high quality artistic training with the basics of dancer health and child development. The ABT® National Training Curriculum consists of a comprehensive set of age-appropriate, outcome-based guidelines to provide the highest quality ballet training to dance students of all ages and skill levels. Pre-Primary through Level 3 will be taught by ABT® Certified Teacher, Amber Roberts, who has successfully completed the ABT® Teacher Training Intensive in Pre-Primary through Level 3 of the ABT® National Training Curriculum.

Amber was also a Homeschool mom and teacher for pre-k, elementary, and middle school grades!
