From the reviews
This studio is fantastic! My daughter has grown so much as a dancer and young lady. The influence the other dancers, instructors, and owners have had on my daughter is nothing short of amazing and positive. Teaching her how hard work leads to success will impact her for the rest of her life.
From the owner to the instructors everyone is amazing . All the teachers are great from helping and teaching the little dancers all the way to the big kids. Everyone knows everyone. Very family friendly environment. We love CDA! I highly recommend taking your kids here.
I am extremely proud and satisfied with entire Staff and Ownership of CDA. My daughter started at a very small and friendly community Studio before coming to CDA.
My daughter is in her second year of dance, with this being her first year at CDA. My husband and I are already so pleased with our experience at CDA. I most appreciate how well and often they communicate, with weekly recap emails.
Your first ballet class at Carolina Dance Alliance
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.
