From the reviews

Allegro Performing Arts Academy has been an incredible experience for our family. From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt welcomed, supported, and inspired.

★★★★★ — James, Sep 2025

We're new to Allegro this year and so far it's truly exceeded our expectations! Consistent, transparent and informative communication is just one thing that has really stood out to us and made the transition to the studio very easy. The staff is very friendly and always willing to help or answer questions!

★★★★★ — Jessica, Jan 2025

We are a proud Allegro family. Both of our kids have danced at Allegro since they were young. Our youngest began as recreational only and has now been part of the dance team for five years as a competitive dancer. The training has been exceptional.

★★★★★ — Angel, Sep 2025

Allegro is the best dance education in the state and I am so thankful it is my daughter’s home away from home. The teachers and staff truly care about all their students. Allegro also has a mentorship program, focuses on mental health, strives for excellence each and every day and has an unmatched competitive program.

Your first ballet class at Allegro Performing Arts 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.

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.
