From the reviews
We actually recently attended a Dance To Evolve Dance Camp through Mayfield Village civic center but for some reason that location says temporarily closed. After reaching out them directly they said it would be ok to leave a review on any Cleveland location.
We’ve loved having classes here at Shaker for the little ones. Such a beautiful studio and the instructors are always so encouraging and knowledgeable. Great find for children’s dance classes!
Our daughter loved her experience with Dance to Evolve. She was able to learn in a fun and patient environment
We had a great experience with the classes during multiple sessions. Would recommend!
Your first ballet class at Dance To EvOLvE in Shaker Heights at Thornton Park Ice Rink
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.
