From the reviews
The Instructor needs to spend more time making sure, the little one's are doing the exact same dance moves, she is instructing them to do. Otherwise, it's all for nothing &, I'm wasting my money.
Jean Leigh has always had a wonderful reputation for being a prestigious dance studio. I chose to place my daughter in classes here at 2 years old and she is now enjoying her 9th year of dance.
We have been with Jean Leigh for 16 years! There’s no where else I’d rather have my girls learn the art of dance. From the preschool daddy dance to being a part of company and everything in between, it has been an incredible to journey to watch my girls grow up in this studio.
I have a daughter, a granddaughter, & 2 nieces who have attended Jean Leigh. My daughter is now 25, but the other 3 still attend. The staff are awesome, & treat you like family. I’ve even had some of the staff & other parents offer assistance during my family’s times of bereavement! They are truly wonderful people
Your first ballet class at Jean Leigh Academy of 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.
