From the reviews
I'm 27 and have never taken a class in my life but stepping into cinnamon's studio was so easy and so much fun. We did an intro to private lessons and there were 4 of us and we had a spectacular time. He was funny and nice and his instructions were so easy to follow. I'm excited for the next steps!
I cannot express enough how grateful we are for the incredible dance lessons we received from Cinnamon. With just five lessons, he transformed our wedding dance into a breathtaking performance that truly made our special day unforgettable.
This evening was my fiancé and I's first dance lesson with Cinnamon. We decided to take some dance lessons for our upcoming wedding as both of us have two left feet. I was nervous going into the first lesson because neither of us have any experience, but Cinnamon made both of us SO comfortable.
My husband and I LOVED working with Cinnamon - our first dance lessons were something we looked forward to when we had them scheduled. Cinnamon is a great dance instructor, he's patient and willing to work with you on any challenges.
Your first ballet class at Cinnamon's Danceworks
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.
