From the reviews

We highly recommend this studio for the budding to advanced dancer. Our son and daughter have danced here and have loved the experience. One thing you need to know is that this is not your typical dance studio.

We are so grateful for Garden Dance Inc.! Ms. Ruthie is an incredibly gifted and caring instructor who has created a beautiful, faith-based environment. She truly goes above and beyond to make sure the kids are learning excellent technique while also growing in their character and confidence.

Your first ballet class at Garden Dance, 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.

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.
