From the reviews

The owner and staff here are very friendly and kind. They are very inviting, and really helped my child boost her confidence in dancing, while also being very patient with me and my child. I would definitely recommend this studio to anyone who wants to learn and just move!

★★★★★ — Kristi, Jan 2018

Excellent small dance studio. My son has been going here for about three years and loves it. The owner and the teachers are all wonderful people and I would recommend this studio to anyone looking for classes for their child. They also have a few adult classes.

★★★★★ — Heather, May 2021

We love this studio. My daughter has attended 5 different studios due to our many mil moves and she says this one feels like home. She dances 5-6 hours weekly and enjoys all of the instructors.

★★★★★ — Chandra, Apr 2024

The studio offers good and seasoned teachers. My son and me have been attending dance classes for over a year now. We have been enjoying the classes and have learnt so much. They allow each student the space and time to learn but keep things professional at the same time. We're very happy here.

Your first ballet class at Center Stage Dance and Performing Arts 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.
