We absolutely love Diamond Academy of Dance!! Our 8 year old daughter has been dancing with DAOD for 4 years now. This is her first year on team and has loved every minute! I can’t speak highly enough of Diamond! The coaches are absolutely top notch and my daughter has grown so much with them!

★★★★★ — Nicole, Jun 2024

The owner is so considerate and truly cares about each dancer! Would recommend to anyone thinking about placing their child in dance whether it be in a recreational class or on the competitive company. Can’t say enough good things about this studio!

★★★★★ — Chelsea, Jun 2022

I highly recommend DAOD!!! My daughter is a first time dancer and I, myself am very new to dance. The staff here is PHENOMENAL and the absolute best! They answer emails in a very timely manner and very respectfully (as a new dance mom, I have a thousand questions 🤣). The coaches are wonderful!

Your first ballet class at Diamond Academy of Dance

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.
