From the reviews

I have had the great pleasure of working with Emma several times over the years. She is an outstanding instructor and choreographer. Her sense of humor is disarming and refreshing, which makes her students feel safe.

We've have been a part of Evolution Dance Co. for 3yrs now. My daughter is part of their elite dance team and she loves it. On top of that she loves all her dance classes. Everyone that works there are amazing, kind and always there if you need someone to talk to. Amazing dance place and very safe.

Evolution Dance Co. is the best place to bring your children to dance by far! A My daughter has been dancing here since she was 2! We absolutely LOVE Julie, Emma, and the rest of the EDC team. They put in so much hard work, time, and love into our kiddos and their dancing. They also put on the best performances!💕

★★★★★ — Kristina, Jun 2023

We’ve been with Evolution since they opened and I wouldn’t want to send my kid to another studio! Not only do they state that they are inclusive and accepting of all bodies and people - they actually walk the walk! We’ve only had amazing experiences and I recommend this studio to everyone I know!

Your first ballet class at Evolution Dance Co.

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.
