From the reviews

I can’t say how much we love CDC. My oldest has been going here for almost 5 years and the amount of growth I have seen from her is really remarkable. Megan and her staff take such pride in making sure that each child are in their correct skill levels in order for them to maximize there full potential as a dancer.

★★★★★ — Whitney, Feb 2020

My daughter has been dancing since she was 5 and within a blink of an eye, she is now 12! We moved here not too long ago from another state and found Chandler Dance Center. My daughter is extremely shy at first and like most kids, has doubts in her ability and tends to hold herself back.

★★★★★ — Judy, May 2018

We have been to a few other dance schools and this is the 1st one that actually is the most personable, my daughter has ADD so I always felt that other schools didn't play close attention to her and help her succeed in dance.

★★★★★ — Lo, May 2017

My daughter has been attending CDC for about a year now and i have took her to other dance studios and this is by far the best. i love the staff and Megan is absolutely amazing at dancing and teaching. i love that she was a professional dancer and personally teaches the girls and boys.

Adult ballet at Chandler Dance Center

Chandler Dance Center 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 Chandler Dance 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.
