What families & students say
“Even though we were beginners we attended many of the group dance events and found the more experienced dancers so welcoming and so helpful that it was amazing fun.”
“My first husband died in 2013 and a few years ago I began to go out with a widower who had been a long time friend of our family.”
“They also host additional workshops with professional guest speakers and dance parties where you can enjoy what you've learned.”
From the reviews
My wife and I have been coming to Art is Motion weekly for about a year now, and we have had such an amazing time with everyone! We were complete beginners, but Tanya and Winston have made us feel welcome and comfortable in both private and group classes.
This place is wonderful. The teachers are very friendly. Inviting, and helpful. They make the environment comfortable and fun. I am so happy to have chosen social dancing to learn with this company. If anyone is questioning if they want to try but feel like the environment might be uncomfortable, come here.
I worked with Tanya from Art is Motion dance studio to prepare a first dance for my wedding for me and my husband and my father. Tanya was so wonderful! She really took the time to listen to our idea of what we wanted and our feedback as she choreographed the dance.
Art Is Motion is a wonderful place to learn dancing and Tanya is the best instructor! Not only do we practice and learn many ballroom dances, but also we socialize, repeat our routines, carry out good dancing manners, exercise, laugh, and relax. One hour of the class seems like a breeze that lasted only a few minutes.
Adult ballet at Art Is Motion
Art Is Motion 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 Art Is Motion
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.
