From the reviews
We love this dance studio and are living through the transition from Studio 89 to Children's Dance Theater. The whole process has been seamless. Super happy our kiddo gets to explore the dance world with this amazing group.
My daughter is thriving at this studio after dancing at 3 different studios over the last 7 years. Great leadership trickles down from the owner to the staff and dance instructors.
My daughter started dancinf at this studio 13 years ago. She Loves her dance teachers, choreographers and friends. This is her home away from home. Great place to little and older kids.
Studio 89 is such a great organization!! The owner and staff do such a fantastic job of teaching their students. The KIDS are their NUMBER ONE priority.
Adult ballet at Children's Dance Theater- Maple Valley
Children's Dance Theater- Maple Valley runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. 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 Children's Dance Theater- Maple Valley
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.
