“We have been at Histown for almost 2 years now, and the experiences that my girls (ages 5 & 7) have had (and that we have had as a family) have been invaluable.”

From the reviews
To "Demi" who left the 1-star review using a fake name with a false report about Histown and the owners, as office manager and the person you would have dealt with regarding "financials", I affirm Ken Farley's response. This simply never happened and we have no record of you.
Finding Histown was such a blessing! And Miss Delia Waggoner was the best first dance teacher for my little girls. She started each class by talking about how the Lord lives in their hearts and they are his princesses. She filled the hour with so much joy and enthusiasm-it was contagious!
If you are looking for a dance studio look no further! Histown Dance has been in business for 23 years and counting. They are conveniently located and are in a brand new studio with lots of space (10,000 plus sq feet).
To the person who left a one star review, DM, be smart before you post false accusations under a fake name that can be traced right to your location and device. I would also beware of what slander means. Histown Dance has 5 star reviews across many different platforms.
Your first ballet class at Histown Dance & Performing Arts
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.
