From the reviews
Just when my daughter was feeling defeated and wanted to quit the owner stepped in and found out what she was struggling with and found a solution. With just a switch of class now she's so excited to go. The dance studio is full of great role models and is a safe place I'm comfortable dropping my daughter of at.
I grew up around Erie dance theater and it feels like home.I stopped going for three years and coming back feels like entering an old childhood home for the first time in years. The people, the place, everything feels like home if you've been there for six weeks or six years.
Your first ballet class at Erie Dance Theater
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.
