From the reviews

My daughter has been dancing here for six years. The teachers are wonderful. Despite the COVID restrictions, they put countless hours into Zoom classes, then implemented safety precautions for in person classes.

I want to Dance Station as a kid in the early 1990's. My daughters are now enrolled and just performed their first recital -The Nutcracker! I am very impressed with the organization of the event and weekly communications throughout the semester. I am sure my daughters will be dancing here for years to come!

Best ballet and dance studio in the area! Beautiful performances, consistent teaching, putting learning and growth ahead of competition. We've been a Dance Station family for years and are so happy with the choice.

Your first ballet class at Dancestation

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.
