From the reviews
Alli Mackner and her team at just for Kix Duluth are the most passionate, experienced, caring coaches I have ever encountered. Their willingness to go the extra mile to help these kids be well rounded in dance and to have a positive team culture is amazing for me to see as a parent.
We love Just for Kix! My daughter is in one of the tiny kicks classes and she loves it! It was great because she had the opportunity to do a shortened five week class and performance to try it out when she was two years old. It really prepped her for when she got to sign up for a full year and she was more than ready.
Both of my daughters have loved dancing with Duluth Just For Kix for multiple years. The staff/coaches are very responsive to questions and supportive for families. My daughters also love working with their coaches who help them build their skills and confidence.
What I love most about Just for Kix is that ALL dancers are celebrated! Everyone is so welcoming and friendly, and my kiddo has had a blast learning about how dance is both good for her body and for her artistic mind. The pricing is reasonable, and using a single costume for the year has been great. Check it out!
Your first ballet class at Just For Kix
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.
