From the reviews

There is so much to say about this place! We got our daughter started in dance here at 2.5 years old. She started the season extremely shy and wouldn’t even sit down with the group without help from a teacher or assistant.

I love CDMC. We have been here 6 years now and we have loved every minute of it. They keep parents in the loop and the kids are cared for and taken care of very well. We love our dance family!

★★★★★ — Megan, May 2024

CDMC is not just a place for my daughter to take dance classes, it's a family. My daughter has gained dancing skills, leadership skills, and so much more. I highly recommend CDMC for dance and music instruction.

Your first ballet class at Caledonia Dance & Music 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.

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.
