From the reviews
My daughter started dance with Mrs. S 3 years ago. She is autistic and has adhd along with several other medical conditions that come with being a micro preemie. Prior to starting dance she was shy, awkward, had a very hard time making friends and had an even harder time finding her purpose and passion for something.
My daughter has been dancing under the leadership of Mrs S for 3 years. Mrs S treats each of her dancers like her very own. She is truly committed to them and teaching the technique, how to feel the music as they dance, and confidence.
I could not be happier with the experience that my daughter and I have had with her first year of dance. Bust A Move Dance Academy was the only choice of dance studios for our family, because of Jennifer Swearingen and her quality, personalized instruction and the passion that she has for the art of dance and teaching!
My daughter has always talked about dancing. Being from a small community there is not a lot to offer but I told her I will look into it. By faith one day as we were traveling to Lynchburg and we look to our left, there was Ms. S sitting at a table outside of Bust A Move doing signups.
Your first ballet class at Bust A Move Dance Academy
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.
