From the reviews
Our children have been with Gotta Dance for 4 years and love it more each year. The educators are knowledgeable, professional and caring; the dancers have many opportunities to perform and the annual concert is outstanding! We look forward to many more years with Gotta Dance.
My daughter just "graduated" from Gotta Dance after taking classes there for the past 15 years. She made so many great friends, learned so much, and had such wonderful experiences at the studio! We will definitely miss Gotta Dance! Their recitals are truly spectacular!
Great dancing school. My daughter has been dancing there for 5 years and she loves it.
Your first ballet class at Gotta Dance
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.
