From the reviews

I am new to the dance world and went to the store to buy my little one necessities. Very friendly and informative service. Will definitely make this our go-to supply store!

★★★★★ — Ruby, Feb 2021

They always have what I need in stock, in the correct sizes for my girls. Service is fast and professional. I have bought shoes and tights minutes before class started! The prices are very competitive (usually as low or lower) with shopping online and you know exactly what you are getting.

★★★★★ — Anna, Apr 2021

I absolutely love this store, and so do my kids! I love that the prices are reasonable and that the staff are great with kids and super friendly. They help you every step of the way for all your dancing needs. This store also gives you a discount card to use every time you visit.

Your first ballet class at Fancy Dancers

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.
