Lauren is so good at teaching students the correct way to dance, but most importantly, she is so positive and encouraging. She makes it a lot of fun. I coached the dance team at my school, and she came to help choreograph and teach the girls our dance number. The girls on the team absolutely loved her.

★★★★★ — Wendy, Jul 2017

What an awesome place for your child to not only learn the love of dance, but also build friendships and make memories. Lauren Robbins' love for dance is obvious, but her love for children is heartwarming. If you are looking for a dance studio, En Pointe Dance Company is the place!!!

★★★★★ — Karen, Jul 2017

We love En Pointe Dance Company! My daughter is currently taking three classes; tap, hip hop and tumbling. Ms. Lauren and her whole staff are great with the kids! My daughter truly enjoys dancing at En Pointe and we will be adding a fourth class next season!

Your first ballet class at En Pointe Dance Company

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.
