From the reviews
I have been dancing at dance arts for 10 years now and have loved every second! The staff is very knowledgeable and strives to make their students the best they can be. The environment is so healthy and fun! Definitely come take classes at dance arts!
Miss Muriel brings so much positive energy and excitement to the classroom. She is such a great leader and role model for her students. Isabella loves tap because of her and is always excited to go to class. Miss Sarah is knowledgeable and full of contagious energy.
Great, family owned and operated dance studio! Focus is not only on teaching dance skills, but also on building solid character through hard work and the dancers supporting one another. Many performance opportunities help dancers become more confident in themselves and in their talents.
We chose Dance Arts for our girls several years ago because we knew Sarah and Rhonda’s faith guided their business practices and it would be a safe environment. We loved the focus on developing personal integrity and responsibility while still learning to be creative and have fun.
Adult ballet at Dance Arts
Dance Arts 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 Arts
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.
