From the reviews
We had a great time today at dress-up and bring a friend day. A good friend of ours invited her to join the class today! Everyone was very friendly and the teacher made sure that Naomi felt included and welcome! We are thinking about signing her up!
Skylar is learning so much from Mrs Kathleen’s Ballet class. We couldn’t ask for a better Instructor, Teacher and Coach!! She is a very knowledgeable, professional and compassionate person who truly cares for her students.
My little one has been taking classes here for a little over a year now. The instructors are always very kind and patient with her. I'm very glad we found this place!
Your first ballet class at Elite Academy of Dance & Performing Arts
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.
