From the reviews
We had our daughter's fourth birthday here and they made the whole process incredibly easy, well planned, and put together for us. We picked a theme (of which they have so many incredibly choices for both boys and girls) and they provided all the decorations, food, drinks, entertainment and just made everything flow…
We held a birthday party for our daughter at Grassland Dance Academy and were absolutely blown away by the experience. The professionalism of the dance instructors, the guest ballerina, the decor, the flow of events, and the general atmosphere were incredible.
My daughter has been dancing with GDA since it's opening and we wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Ms Maureen is an amazing teacher and truly has a heart for all of her students. The highlight of the year for my daughter is the dance recital.... and as a parent I look forward to it too.
Our daughter absolutely loves her class and Maureen is SO good with the little ones.... her classes are structured so well as to keep the little ones form getting bored and keeps them 'on their toes' ;). Would recommend GDA to anyone of any age.
Your first ballet class at Grassland Dance Academy
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.
