From the reviews
My girls started dancing at a very young age. When we moved to Lima, we were worried about finding another dance studio that felt like family. After searching and trying out other studios, we finally found A Step Above. From Day 1, my girls have felt welcomed and accepted. They have found their new “dance family”.
This studio has been my home away from home for 8 years!! And over the past two and a half I have felt more at home than ever! The staff truly care about each and every student who walks in the door new and/or old!!
My daughter is at her 4th year at ASA. She loves to go to dance and the teachers and studio owner are very approachable and knowledgeable when I have questions or concerns with my dancer. I would recommend them as to why we keep going back every year 🎉🎉🎉 go ASA.
I danced at ASA years ago before new ownership, and I had a pretty decent experience overall! Though I haven’t seen the place since dancing here, I’ve been able to stay in contact with some of the staff and it is really awesome to hear what Ms Sierra has done with the place!
Your first ballet class at A Step Above Dance Studio
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.
