From the reviews
Haven is the best there is. The teachers are so amazing. They make sure they work with each student to get them to get where they need to be. My daughter loves Haven. She has been apart of Haven for 3 years now. She’s made so many friends and she loves all of her teachers.
Haven is truly a safe haven! Gentle, loving, positive, fun. I don't want any type of competitive dance at my child's young age, I just want her to build confidence and skill, and have the best time. That's exactly what we get with Haven!
Haven School of dance has been very good for Elsie. She has had joint and back problems for a while now, and Haven School of dance was a good place to pick up after physical therapy ended. They made modifications for her as she got stronger, and now she can dance with the rest of them.
I’ve known Megan for years, she is such a kind and generous person and an amazing director! She has made Haven School of Dance a true haven for all the students that go there.
Adult ballet at Haven School of Dance
Haven School of Dance runs classes for grown-ups, going by their listing and students’ reviews. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.
Your first ballet class at Haven School of 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.
