From the reviews
My daughter has danced at Evolution for 5 years and it is literally her home away from home. She has not only grown so much as a dancer, but also has made some incredible friendships and is truly so happy when she is there.
Evolution Dance Center is the best! Amazing staff and teachers who are dedicated to helping all the students succeed. My daughter started last year and is thriving. She has learnt so many new skills and made lots of new friends.
Signing up our daughter at Evolution Dance Center has been one of the best decisions ever. She had no prior dance experience before coming to this studio, and from day one, she was embraced and encouraged to be a part of their dance family.
Evolution Dance Center is my daughter’s home away from home. She has been dancing there for 8 years and on the competition team for 4. It’s AMAZING how she’s grown as a dancer! The owner Lisa and her amazing team did SUPERB during quarantine keeping these beautiful dancers engaged via Zoom and finally in studio.
Your first ballet class at Evolution Dance Center Inc
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.
