“I have know shannon13+years when I first took my daughter to sign up for dance at the Essex location at the time.”
From the reviews
I had the pleasure of training under S Funk in Hip Hop dance; while she was preparing me for my music video Q.U.E.E.N. She created a wonderful piece and choreographed a routine for the second portion of my video. Along with two other great dancers from her organization we were able to pull it off in about 3 1/2 weeks.
I have know shannon13+years when I first took my daughter to sign up for dance at the Essex location at the time.she has always been helpful goes above and beyond to make sure her dancers get the attention they need to succeed at what they want to excel in.
Well I have known Shannon for about 10 or 11yrs. & she is super passionate about her dancing. She lives for it & her students love her alot. At the Harbor location on Howard St. I had the pleasure to freestyle with her to Michael Jackson Style on the 70 ft. historic marble bar in downtown Baltimore.
Shannon is a ABSOLUTE inspiration! Her passion for dance is AMAZING!! Thank you, Shan!!
Your first ballet class at Baltimore Dance Center
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.
