From the reviews
Great instructor, great classes, and great teachers/students!! Whether you're here for classical ballet, or fun upbeat tap, dance dimensions is a great place to be! Highly recommend coming here to learn how to dance!
The owner, Miranda, is simply incomparable. Her understanding of Ballet and ability to teach her students will stick with them for a lifetime. She is the epitome of great, solid and structured technique.
A beautiful facility with a caring and talented staff, DDA provides a dance experience for all dance levels, all ages, and all levels of commitment. Do you want to compete at high levels, or experience the excitement of a well produced theatrical show, or maybe just enjoy a class for the fun of it.
We have been very happy with the training here. I’ve seen my daughter grow in confidence and in athleticism and it’s had a tremendous impact on her. I also look forward to seeing the pre-professional program grow with the studio owner’s vision of developing dancers that could go on to careers in the performing arts.
Your first ballet class at Dimensions Dance Academy
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.
