Miss Emma is amazing! My shy almost 3 year old is flourishing in her class. She is so patient and upbeat with the kids and always makes sure the kids get the most out of their class time that they can get. We recommend heathers dance studio to anyone looking.

★★★★★ — Florida, Sep 2018

Our daughter has been at heather’s dance studio since 2017. At first we were worried because she was a bit shy, but they are so kind and friendly it made her feel comfortable. Being at heather‘s dance studio really helped her confidence and to keeps her active doing something she loves.

★★★★★ — The, Aug 2023

This season is going to be my daughter's 7th year with Heather's Dance Studio. Since the age of four all she has wanted to do is dance. We found heather's dance studio and never looked back. With the dedication & excellent teaching she has grown so much in her passion of dance.

★★★★★ — Tina, Aug 2023

I am entering my 5th season at Heather's. I never learned or got to take dance classes as a kid growing up. I entered my first class at Heather's having no dance experience. Every teacher I have had has welcomed my desire to learn and helped me grow as an adult dancer.

Adult ballet at Heathers Dance Studio

Heathers Dance Studio 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 Heathers Dance Studio

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.
