At Benedict Manniegel, we are passionate about ballet and teaching others the joy of dance. Offering master guidance, we cultivate self-discipline, motivation, and professionalism through excellent ballet training and personal education.

We do not just want to train and promote dancers, but also every person, who enters our school will benefit from dance beyond the “Ballet Room” in the context of their personal life.

What others say about us

Great ballet school run by a passionate team of teachers and choreographers.

Have an excellent professional program for those willing to make a career in dancing.

Small groups, many hours of training, participation in professional performance on the scene.

Very experienced “true” teachers that help students moving forward and not doing it just for the sake of money like in some private school.

I can only warmly recommend this school in the heart of Muenchen.

Christophe Debou (5 stars - Google reviews)

I spent one year at Benedict – Manniegel international ballet academy and I have never progressed that much during such a short time.

What I like about the school is that the teachers are very experienced. They are teaching traditional Vaganova Method that gives you a strong classical base for professional dancers. Also, they care about every detail which is important.

We do a lot of performances and rehearsals that prepare students for their future life in theatres. This is such a great experience.

The city of Munich is very enjoyable and safe. The people are very kind and helpful. There are many parks around the city. The biggest one (English Garten) is just a few hundred meters away from the school.

To summarize the school is an excellent door opener for entering a renowned public school or a company and helps to improve strongly your techniques as well as scene experience.
