From the reviews
My daughter is taking from Alabama Dance Academy and we are in our 5th year now. What I love about ADA is the instruction each dancer receives. The teachers know how to build a beautiful dancer. My daughter takes ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, and hip hop.
Alabama Dance Academy has been a wonderful studio for my girls. They have taken dance there for years and absolutely love it. The instructors are wonderful and truly teach because they love dance.
Fabulous dance school! Excellent staff teaching a wide variety of classes. The students learn a lot, work hard, and have fun - all of which show in their performances throughout the year. It is amazing to see the growth every time they take the stage!
Excellent place to learn dance! Everyone is friendly and the instructors are great! My children have a lot of fun and enjoy the performing and training opportunities too!
Your first ballet class at Alabama Dance Academy
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.
