Ignite was my home for my four years in high school; I absolutely loved every teacher and every dancer. Through Ignite, I not only gained necessary dance techniques and abilities, but I also gained friendship, support and a second family.

【Ballet class and tumbling class】 -Ballet: Both of our daughters took ballet lessons at IGNITE and they were loving it. Instructors are amazing and recitals are so much fun! We are planning on sticking to this place "for the ballet". We love Ms. Angie :) -Tumbling: It's okay, but sadly nothing special.

★★★★☆ — Natsumi, Dec 2025

Both of my kids went through the pre-school program and danced here. The teachers are enthusiastic and very experienced. The recital is always amazing! If you want to be a real dancer, this is where you go. The yoga classes are inclusive and the space is beautiful.

★★★★★ — Moon, Jun 2020

I am loving the ZOOM live classes that Ignite is currently offering. It is GREAT to have our wonderful instructors guide us through our practices. I love connecting with other yogis prior to class. The flexibility of having several classes to choose from each day supports our consistency.

Your first ballet class at IGNITE 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.

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.
