From the reviews
Cecil Dancenter is awesome! I've been dancing there for eleven years now, and the teachers are excellent and so nice. They give everybody attention and great advice. Also, the students are very accepting and make you feel like family. Whether you're looking to be a pro.
I’ve been going since I was three and I absolutely love it. I currently am helping out and going on ten straight years of classes, and I would definitely recommend this experience for your child or yourself, they have a class for all kinds dance, for all ages. Love you Ms. Tina! ❤️

Your first ballet class at Cecil Dancenter
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.
