From the reviews
We cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Ann Mercedes ! From the very first lesson, she made us feel completely at ease, even though we were both a little nervous about dancing in front of people.
Ann Mercedes is amazing! She made my husband and I completely at ease with our first dance lessons. She is creative and really works with you on making sure you're comfortable. My dad and I took dance lessons as well for our father daughter dance and so did my husband and his mom.
Ann helped us get prepared for our wedding first dance. As two very uncoordinated people who never really dance or have every taken lessons we were pretty worried that it wouldn't work out, but Ann choreographed our dance based on the song we wanted and helped us feel at ease. We even had fun learning and practicing!
We attended a private session to learn how to dance for our wedding and had a blast! Couldn’t have asked for a better teacher and we left feeling far more confident for our big day.
Your first ballet class at Corner Dance Studio LLC
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.
