From the reviews
We were looking for a studio with structure but still fun and we found our place! My daughter started with a summer camp at just three years old and in just one week, she learned an entire dance that she performed along with the rest of her class. My daughter loves coming to dance class every week.
Tried the Me and My Shadow class at All About Dance! By Kristen, with my little and I was thoroughly impressed. Having a dancer background, I’m always highly critical of dance studios.
We started at AADBK 12 years ago for our 3 year old to have a place to interact with other children. We are still commuting multiple days a week with plenty of options for classes. We have studios closer to our home but there is no place like AADBK.
We love AADBK! Our daughter started taking dance classes at the studio last summer and loved them! She really enjoys all of her classes all year long! The staff are professional and very organized! Nothing is better than seeing her smiling face coming out of her weekly classes!
Adult ballet at All About Dance By Kristen
All About Dance By Kristen runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.
Your first ballet class at All About Dance By Kristen
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.
