Enrolling your child in McDonough: practical notes
- Call with your child's age. Ask which class fits — baby ballet, creative movement, or a graded level — and whether they offer a trial class so your child can try before you commit to a term.
- Ask about the recital. Most studios stage a year-end performance; check the schedule and any costume or ticket costs up front so the year holds no surprises.
- Sort the dress code, don't over-buy. A leotard, tights, and ballet slippers with hair in a bun is typical, but many studios keep the first class relaxed. Confirm what's required before shopping.
- Look for nurturing, not pushy. The best early teachers keep it fun and non-competitive; confidence and a love of moving come first, technique follows.
- Use a free trial. Some studios offer a free or discounted first class — the easiest way to see if your child clicks with the teacher. See studios with a free trial class.
