From the reviews

My daughter danced for Charla since she was 12. Charla nurtures every child’s unique skill and ability to make them feel a look like a star, no matter their weaknesses. Her choreography is well thought out and showcases each child during performances. She runs the facility with strong Christian values.

Charla’s School of Dance is the best studio out there. Charla is a very kind hearted person who genuinely cares about your child’s well being and treats her dancers like they’re her own family. Her studio is a wonderful atmosphere for kids to grow up in.

★★★★★ — The, May 2024

I highly recommend Charla’s dance studio over any other existing dance studio. That is not out of just loving her as a person, but she is very well rounded in her choreography. Not only is she extremely talented.. she is so loving of her community and dancers. She genuinely cares..

Your first ballet class at Charla’s School of Dance

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.
