Online Coaching
Online private ballet lessons via Zoom
Real-time coaching with Bean Shindell — professional dancer and instructor — for students anywhere in the world, not only Colorado.
Every Barre & Beyond offering is available live online via Zoom. Online students receive real-time feedback and direct guidance — the same personalized coaching as an in-person lesson, wherever you are. If you're outside the greater Denver area, this is how you train with Bean.

How online lessons work
A short consultation
Before your first lesson, Bean learns your goals and experience and maps a structured plan for your training.
Live coaching over Zoom
You train in real time and receive direct correction and feedback — just as you would in the studio, from anywhere in the world.
Practice between sessions
You leave each lesson with personalized exercises to reinforce progress before the next one.
To get the most from an online lesson, set up a few metres of clear space, a chair or countertop for support, and a device positioned so Bean can see your full body. That's all you need to begin.
