What can I say about Candace Dance Company and Candace Roussel. Let me start off by telling you that Elizabeth Grace and I have been blessed beyond measure being apart of this FAMILY(studio). Family is how I describe it because this has been much more than just a place to learn dance.

★★★★★ — Joseph, Apr 2024

When it was time to look for a studio for my daughter, I had a few specific things I was looking for. I wanted it to be an environment that would love and encourage her to be a better person, not just a better dancer .

★★★★★ — Katie, Feb 2019

This is our fourth year here....we absolutely love the teachers and the positivity these kids get here is amazing! They work hard but it's all so much fun! Would definitely recommend to anyone with a child interested in dance!

Your first ballet class at Candace Dance Company

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.
