From the reviews
My daughter has been going here for 10 years now and she has not only improved in form but work ethic. It’s not easy giving or receiving feedback but it’s important in just about every aspect in life. It’s helped her become proactive and mature in other areas as well.
My daughter has been dancing here for 11 years. We love the teachers and IDance community. She is very happy here and has learned a lot. Not only did she learn a variety of dance techniques, but she learned focus, discipline and strength, and to never give up.
Everything about this studio is amazing. The teachers here are top notch and are always willing to help out. The office staff is very kind and informative. They have multiple different styles of dance, plus extra programs and master classes are offered periodically.
All 3 of my girls dance at iDance, and we have been an iDance family for over 10 years. The dance instructors are amazing, the atmosphere is welcoming, and there is a great balance of technique and performance. Highly recommend for those beginning dance as well as experienced dancers!
Your first ballet class at Institute for 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.
