Ms. Alene is nothing short of amazing, and our experience at the Festival of Dance Studio under her guidance has been truly delightful. Her passion for dance and teaching is evident in every aspect of the studio, creating an atmosphere that is both nurturing and inspiring for young creative minds.

★★★★★ — Jennifer, Dec 2023

Miss Alene is so wonderful! We are currently enrolled in the Fairytales and Tutus class, and I can't get over how amazing this class is for my 3 year old. Music, stories, and costumes are all integrated into the dance, and it's truly a joy to watch. I wish I could give 10 stars!

★★★★★ — Polly, Jan 2023

I cannot recommend Ms. Alene's dance program enough, especially for birthday parties! My daughter recently celebrated her 6th birthday, and it was an absolute blast thanks to Ms. Alene. From the moment we booked the party, Ms. Alene's professionalism and attention to detail were evident.

★★★★★ — V-Force, Dec 2023

My daughter had a great time at one of the dance camps with her cousin! It was well organized and the kids had a blast!

Your first ballet class at A Festival of Dance

Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Ballet is for every age and every body. If you're returning from an injury or have a health concern, mention it to the teacher before class so they can offer modifications.
