From the reviews

I’ve been dancing here with my husband for a couple years and this is a really special place to me. Learning to dance has been so much fun, and I’ve met so many wonderful people through the studio. The teachers are so patient and supportive! Coming to class has been a great way to relax and let go of stress.

★★★★★ — Camille, Mar 2023

Great dance space! Been there twice for a Bachata event. Free street parking right in front which is great! Good air conditioning system and a great dance floor that doesn't kill your legs by the end of the night. Would be great to have more bathrooms but besides that wonderful venue!

★★★★☆ — Rachel, Jul 2024

Where should you go for nostalgic music, classy moves, and a self-esteem boost? Crown City Dance! This is a long-overdue review of a full-day dance workshop that took place in June.

★★★★★ — Julia, Oct 2024

The evening events are good. Some are also good because they are uncrowded due to winter weather etc, so if you go in, you will faster become more of an insider of music and dance and performance.

Your first ballet class at Crown City 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.
