From the reviews

My daughter has been with Allana for 3 years and started dancing when she was 2. We love Allana! For us it has become a second home because it's a family. The love and care that Allana, and all the other instructors she hires, pours into every dancer that walks in the door is nothing short of amazing.

★★★★★ — Kelley, Apr 2019

My daughter joined the competition team this season, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. She absolutely LOVES all of her instructors, especially Ms. Allana! They have all welcomed us into their dance family with open arms, and made us feel right at home.

★★★★★ — Joanna, Apr 2019

LOVE Allana's! We started last year in the Twinkle Babies class. We felt welcome from the second we walked in. Everyone was very kind. They made my daughter feel included from the very start. Allana was patient and kind with all the students and was great at connecting with a room full of toddlers..

★★★★★ — Amanda, Aug 2015

My 3-year-old daughter just performed in her first dance recital after completing her first year at Allana's Academy of Dance. She -- and our whole family -- are so grateful for the experience. We initially selected this studio because it had rave reviews and was less than 10 minutes from our home.

Your first ballet class at Allana's Academy 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.
