From the reviews
My daughter has been dancing with CDA for 11 years now, and this is her 7th year on their competition team. The studio has become a second home for her. Most of her teachers have been with the studio since she started, and are like extended family for her.
I’ve been dancing here for ten years and I love it so much! There has always been an extremely kind, welcoming, encouraging, and fun environment and I truly look forward to coming to dance class every day. All of the teachers, like Ms. Tiffany, make coming to dance and learning new things so exciting and enjoyable.
I am an alumni of CDA and danced there for 15 years. To say I received a great dance education there is an understatement. The training I received at this studio allowed me to dance for my high school's varsity team, as well as my university's NCAA team.
I love dancing at this studio! All the teachers are so nice and positive. They really make you feel good about yourself. The studio is always very clean and organized. Miss Tiffany is truly the best as well as all the other teachers. She is so fun! I love forward to coming to dance every night.
Adult ballet at Centreville Dance Academy
Centreville Dance Academy runs classes for grown-ups, going by their listing and students’ reviews. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.
Your first ballet class at Centreville Dance Academy
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.
