From the reviews

My six year old daughter is now in her third year of dance at dance extension. She absolutely loves it there! I searched hard for the right dance home for us before choosing Dance Extension- I wanted classes that were developmentally appropriate for my little girl that would teach her dance skills but most importantly…

★★★★★ — Deb, Feb 2020

I can’t express enough how much we love Dance extension. My daughter started there when she was 2 and is now 5 and about to have her third recital. I felt like the beginning Mommy and Me classes really helped her prepare for school and she loved them.

★★★★★ — Marie, Jan 2021

Our girls have done both the Let's Pretend! and Princess Dance & Theater classes. They absolutely love them! They love acting out the plays and dressing up for Let's Pretend!

★★★★★ — Craig, Mar 2016

Mrs. Judy, owner of Dance Extension makes you feel like family from the moment you join her studio. With classes for every age and skill level it was an easy choice to sign my 4 year old up for Princess Dance. Each class is different yet builds on new skills.

Your first ballet class at Dance Extension

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.
