Wonderful teachers! They really care about the students. And Mariel is a great dancer and works hard to make sure her students improve as dancers, make friends, and have fun doing it.
Great place with wonderful, caring teachers. They offer lots of class options and maintain a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Their summer camps are awesome too!
The best dance studio. They are different than others and very welcoming. The teachers are amazing! My daughter loves it here!
Your first ballet class at Atlantic Dance Arts
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.
