From the reviews

We love J&R and have been attending since our daughter was only 9 months old and she is 3 now! Coach Carolyn was her long-time favorite. Coach Kylee and Coach Kristin have worked with her since moving up into the class without Mom & Dad.

★★★★★ — Danielle, Oct 2023

J&R Gymnastics is fantastic! Our kids absolutely love it. The staff is incredibly professional, and we especially want to give a huge shout out to Coach April. She’s a gem, an inspiration, and truly amazing with our son. We can’t thank her enough! Great job, J&R!

★★★★★ — Lawrence, Nov 2024

Coach Shelby is truly the best! Her passion for both the sport and the girls she coaches shines through in everything she does. She has an incredible ability to connect with each of her athletes, helping them grow not just as competitors, but as kind, resilient, and respectful young women.

★★★★★ — Brittin, Apr 2025

I'm giving 5 stars to all the coaches at J&R, but especially Coach Shelby. She consistently challenges my daughter to bring her best, demanding focus, effort, and determination at every practice.

Your first ballet class at J & R Gymnastics

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.
