From the reviews
We signed my DD up a few months ago, and she is loving her classes and already in a recital! I love that they have lots of styles for her to try and learn what she likes!
I had such a wonderful experience at this studio if you are looking to get back into dance or try adult ballet for the first time I highly recommend this studio. It was welcoming and so inviting I had full intention to get signed up for classes halfway through the first class!
EDA is a wonderful and loving community of dancers. The upper division dancers are so kind, humble, and encouraging to the smaller girls. The instructors are so helpful and supportive. Many kinds of dance are offered and the owner, Kim, is so creative and makes dance a loving environment and community for all.
Lovely teachers and fun atmosphere. My teen took beginners ballet here and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Adult ballet at Evergreen Dance Academy
Evergreen Dance Academy 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 Evergreen Dance Academy
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.
