The programs they offer

From the reviews
Backstage dance studio has been my second family since I was 4 years and throughout my last 13 years with backstage they have allowed me to blossom into the person I am today.
There's a great spirit about this place. Instructors are really friendly and talented. The annual shows are spectacular, though kids who take only a class or two appear on stage for just a short time. The triple threat instructor repels kids with her hot temper, but the rest are great, and the place is well run.
Backstage is by far one of the best dance studios out there. I've been on their dance team for about 5 years now, and every year brings more adventures, joy and so much fun! The teachers there are all so nice and welcoming, and I have to say the studio feels like a 2nd home to me.

Your first ballet class at Backstage Dance Studio
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.
