From the reviews

I moved to Flagstaff not knowing anything about the area. My daughters had been dancing for several years, and I wanted to find a good studio for them. By word of mouth, DancEvolution was suggested and boy am I so glad we chose this studio!

★★★★★ — Alicia, Oct 2023

My family has been a part of DancEvolution for over 10 years and Company for 5 years and we love it so much! My girls are thriving under the care and instruction of Ms. Jesica and all their teachers and enjoy every minute in the studio.

★★★★★ — Kendra, Oct 2023

DancEvolution isn't just a dance studio, it's a family, and has become a second home for my 10-year-old daughter over the past several years. We're grateful to be a part of this wonderful community, and especially to Ms. Jesica for her passion and dedication she shares with her dancers.

★★★★★ — Jessi, Oct 2023

My children have been with this dance studio for 6 years. In that time we have come to know the owner well. She is generous and a good example to all the students. She goes out of her way to help them have a positive experience, but also pushes them to learn more and work hard.

Adult ballet at DancEvolution

DancEvolution runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.

Your first ballet class at DancEvolution

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.
