## What is BalletBox?

Here is the app you've always wanted for your ballet class.

Play the songs you love in the tempo and structure you choose.  Giving class on the fly?  Change the tempo and structure seamlessly even after the music has started!

Make a playlist for the different classes you teach- each playlist remembers the options you change, so next time you go back they are waiting for you.

New music is added weekly; and you can even request the songs you would like added.

Have music already you love?  Use music from your iTunes library in your playlists - adjust their tempo and structure!

### 5/5 — Life changing

*2022-03-02*

I downloaded this app to teach a class that required changing temples between songs and this app saved my life. It was so easy to use and very happy with this app!

### 4/5 — Love hate relationship

*2020-07-10*

The app itself is great and I choreographed many things but later it said I had to pay to continue using the app❤️😭

### 1/5 — THIS APP IS NOT FREE

*2020-03-22*

Really sneaky how you don’t say the subscription is automatic. I had to really search and even email to find out if I had to pay. There are free apps out there people. Don’t pay sneaky people like this.

**Developer response:** The subscription is not automatic.
There is a free trial of seven days.
After seven days a dialog will pop up and ask if you want to continue.

In addition, before seven days, the app will notify the user how many days are left in the free trial.

I wrote it in this way, in order to allow you to try the app *without* having to subscribe.  After you subscribe, Apple does automatically renew subscriptions.  I thought that it would be better to give users a chance try before being forced to subscribe (and then forgetting etc).

This is clearly stated on the App page.  
Automatic subscriptions are not allowed by Apple.
This app is not sneaky.

### 2/5 — Subscription 😒

*2020-02-18*

Use it for free one day, pay another?!??

**Developer response:** As clearly stated on the App download page:
This app is available for 7 days free without a subscription.
After 7 days, a prompt will appear asking that you start a subscription to use this app.

The free trial is designed to allow you to find out if this app is useful for you.
After that, the paid subscription is designed in order to allow me to pay my countless hours developing and recording music for this app.

### 5/5 — Awesome app for ballet teachers

*2019-10-03*

Love this app - the variety, setting options and pitch control. Simply fantastic

### 5/5 — Great for any ballet pedagogue

*2019-09-16*

This app is a great tool for any serious ballet teacher or pedagogue. The creator has a variety of music, 2/4, 4/4, 6/8, 3/4, mazurka, polonaise, gigue, polka, march, waltz, adage, tango, etc., to work from. You can adjust the tempo, length, and introduction of each piece. The musician who recorded this music is also obviously talented. I especially enjoy the “info” portion of each selection of music that usually explains who wrote the music, when it was written, and where more info on it can be found. Incredibly educational for both the teacher and students!

### 5/5 — Ballet Box App is Fabulous!

*2019-09-11*

I highly recommend this app if you are a dance teacher! The music selections are great, you can adjust the tempo and it is organized by step!!
