From the reviews
Our 7 year old dancer has been with Dance by Lauren Mae for 3 years now, and every moment has been purely positive and joyful. Ms. Lauren connects with her dancers and creates a magical experience while building their confidence, capacity for collaboration, and skill. Ms.
Lauren is without a doubt one of the most delightful, kindhearted people I have ever met and a fantastic dance teacher. She is patient and kind and trustworthy. She will guide your children to the magical realm of dance . . . where they can set their little spirits free.
Miss. Lauren is a remarkable person. She is full of energy, kindness, and patience. She gives her dancers excellent instruction while making them grin from ear to ear! Even the parents smile when Miss. Lauren is around.
Lauren is absolutely amazing! Sweet, kind, talented and so great with kids. Take all my money the best dance instructor.
Your first ballet class at Dance by Lauren Mae
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.
