From the reviews

I have been taking adult tap here for seven years. The teachers are skilled in all areas of (rhythm) tap, jazz, ballet, and modern. They have the best rhythm tap class in Rhode Island. They offer great opportunities for their students and provide great exposure to master tap classes.

I love dancing here. It’s a safe environment and filled with love. I recommend coming here. You learn how to be confident and help people. Everyone has your back here and if your thinking of dancing, head over here!

I came here dancing for 6 years and although I quit last year it's a great place to come and dance! They have tap, ballet, jazz, and hip hop. The teachers are super nice and the dancers are amazing!

Your first ballet class at Bayside School of Dance

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.
