From the reviews
I have danced at Danceworks for three decades after getting a minor in dance at the University of Northern Colorado. The dance instructors are unfailingly professional and provide every opportunity for advancement. I LOVE this studio and highly recommend it to anyone who really wants to learn how to dance.

I enrolled my granddaughter this past year and so glad because she enjoys it so much. The staff seem attentive and happy with what they are trying to achieve and I thank you for giving her wonderful experience in learning dance.
We love Dance Works studio! We've been with them for over 6 year. They have wonderful instructors, lots of classes to choose from, excellent dance instruction and fun productions!
Your first ballet class at Dance Works
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.
