From the reviews
We’ve been part of the CBSD family for over 15 years, and we are beyond blessed to have found a place where my children can truly thrive. It’s more than just a studio—it’s a second home where fun meets the art of dance.
I’ve been coming to the studio for 14 years and I absolutely have loved it from the time I started to where I am now!! Ms.Christine is nothing but kind,compassionate, and so willing to care for all her students or defend them.
Your first ballet class at Christine Belpedio's School of Dance Est.1978
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.
