From the reviews
My daughter had a free trial class this week. She was shy about going in, but the teacher was really great. Miss Aggie she was happily dancing within minutes. I was able to watch the class through the viewing window. The studio has a parent wifi, so I could do work while she was in class.
Our family has been with Dance & Music Design School for 8 years and we are so thankful for the care and instruction our children have received there. I recommend this studio, and the curriculum it teaches, without reservation.
I’m so glad I decided to send my kids to Dance Design in-person this fall. I’m impressed with all the precautions they’ve taken there, and it seems safer than any other place I’ve gone. Both of my daughters (4 and 13) love being back in studios doing something fun, meaningful, and safe with kids their age.
I love Dance and Music Design School. My granddaughter has been attending for 4 years and she can’t wait for class each week. Her teachers have always been very caring and patient. This year I started my younger granddaughter in Music Pups, baby music class. She loved it and so did I.
Your first ballet class at Dance Design School
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.
