From the reviews

My daughter just finished her Senior year with DSD. She enjoyed all the years she danced! The teachers are fabulous and encourage each student to be their best! It is a wonderful, Christian dance school!

★★★★★ — Christy, Jun 2018

We just celebrated our 6th year with DSD and could not be happier. The girls always leave class with a huge smile on their face and are forming life long friendships in addition to learning skills as a dancer.

★★★★★ — Mellisa, Jun 2018

I can't say enough good things about DSD and the staff. My daughter danced there, one granddaughter graduated last year and another one still has 5 years more. I could not imagine them dancing anywhere else.

★★★★★ — June, Jun 2018

My daughter has been dancing at DSD for 7 years. It is a great dance school. They try to work classes around your schedule. Many types of classes are offered for the different age groups. Ballet, tap, and jazz combo classes Contemporary Hip Hop Pointe Kickline Performing groups

Adult ballet at Douglasville School of Dance

Douglasville School of Dance 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 Douglasville School 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.
