From the reviews
Echo school of dance has been a blessing to us! We came from Nashville TN, looking for a studio that would push technique but also give us opportunities to work with the best in the industry! Echo and staff hold all their dancers to a high standard which is expected in the professional world!
This industry can be tough for any age...there have been tears, frustration and heartbreak...but it all stems from the level your kiddo wants to dance at! Echo dancers work hard in a very competitive and opinionated based sport and the coaches work even harder to get them where they want to be!
We love echo school of dance! my daughter has gone there for almost 4 years and loves it! it’s a very friendly and clean studio and helps dancers achieve what they need at there ability level! it also excepts all abilities so you don’t have to be a pro, they let us know everything as soon at they know.
Words can’t express how much this studio has changed our daughter’s life! She started at age 5, scared and timid. She had been at a gymnastics studio that out her in a team and then the teachers were so strict our daughter was terrified to go, so we wanted something different.
Your first ballet class at Echo 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.
