From the reviews
Been my family for 15 years. Couldn't have chosen a better place to give me the dance education to take me places.
My grandchildren are on their 4th year and absolutely LOVE it. Everyone is treated like family and never made to feel as if they don't belong or fit in. If you want to have fun and learn to dance, this is where you start!
Dance World is an amazing studio with talented teachers and lots of different styles of dance to learn! Mrs. Lisa and Mr. Jim treat everyone like family!! I loved my time dancing here!
Your first ballet class at Dance World
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.
