From the reviews
My daughter has been going here for over a year. She started at their old location off East Valley Pkwy and is now at the Center City Pkwy location. The staff and instructors are wonderful. There are a ton of different classes offered throughout the day for all ages and levels.
My family is in our 8th year at Best Foot Forward and our 6th year on the competition team. When our family moved back into the area I called several local dance studios and BFF was the only one to return my call which automatically earned my business. Since then we have absolutely grown to love this studio.
My daughter has been dancing at BFF for over five years. She started dance when she was two in city recreation programs but by the time she was five, we knew we needed a "real" dance studio experience. BFF offeres a wide variety of classes so it was fun for my daughter to try different styles when she first started.
I can't tell you enough how awesome this studio is both for me (as a mother) and my daughter (as a student)! I would recommend it to anyone in the area---no matter what your age or skill level. They are very hands on and their personalized attention goes a long way.
Your first ballet class at Best Foot Forward 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.
