From the reviews

So happy that I am a part of this team! Last season really brought us closer together after we got rid of some negative attitudes in the studio. We’ve come a long way from there and I have never been happier. We are always growing thanks to the help of the new owner and our amazing teachers.

★★★★★ — Caitlyn, Aug 2019

My daughter is beyond thrilled to have joined this studio and to be a part of their competition team this year. Leaving a tumultuous studio and entering this studio is like a breath of fresh air and the positivity radiating from the entire staff and my daughter’s new dance peers is such a blessing.

★★★★★ — Kristin, Aug 2019

I have known the owner for many years. She began as my daughter's dance teacher and has followed her dream of owning a studio. She is an amazing, kind and loving person who thinks of others first. She loves all the students and admires those that show a passion and dedication to dance.

★★★★★ — Patty, Aug 2019

We are very pleased with the owners and teachers of CFDA. It is a very positive environment for all of the students who pass through the doors. They teach not only the skills of dance, but also teamwork, keeping organized, and interpersonal communications.

Your first ballet class at CenterForDanceArts

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.
