From the reviews
You can't ask for a better owner and team of instructors. Not only are the classes that are offered diverse and for all ages, but its truly an amazing atmosphere where you quickly feel like part of a family.
Nia Silao is an amazing teacher. Not only is she a talented artist, but she is a dedicated, thorough teacher. Nia carefully plans and teaches lessons that engage her students while getting them to perform at their best. She encourages and corrects us all and we love her!!
This place is the best!!!! Lucy and all the dance teachers are great!!’ We have been with them since we moved in to Bloomfield Hills so now 5 years. I always send my friends to this dance place☺️
Wish it had more Hip Hop dance classes but i do have to say it the atmosphere was great. The few instructors i had were so nice and fun.
Adult ballet at Dance Academy of Bloomfield Hills
Dance Academy of Bloomfield Hills runs classes for grown-ups, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 Dance Academy of Bloomfield Hills
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.
