The first private ballet school in Novi Sad, founded in 1991 by Dobrila Novkov, a ballerina of the Serbian National Theatre and a teacher trained at the Vaganova Academy. Classical ballet for girls and boys from age 3, and for adults with or without any dance experience.

The same programme since 1991: classical ballet by the Russian method of the Vaganova Academy, from the first steps to a certificate and preparation for the secondary ballet school. Adults start from zero, at their own pace.
La Sylphide works by the Russian method based on the curriculum of the Vaganova Academy in Saint Petersburg: flexibility, stamina, discipline and strength, but above all attention to detail. With a solid classical foundation, students later pick up modern dance, jazz ballet and anything else they are drawn to with ease.
No. The beginners groups start from zero: posture, breathing, the first positions and simple exercises at the barre. Nobody expects you to know anything yet.
It is not. The beginners groups are for adults of any age and any build. Work is gradual and everyone progresses from where they are.
From three or four. The youngest group works on walking, coordination and movement through play and music; classical ballet proper starts at five.
Comfortable, close-fitting clothes you can move in, and socks or soft ballet shoes. You do not need to buy anything special before the first visit.
Classes are held in Serbian. Ballet terminology is French everywhere in the world, so the barre sounds the same in Novi Sad as anywhere else. Write to us in English if that is easier for you.
