★★★★★ — Tana, Oct 2016

We've been with Just for Kix for a couple of years now and couldn't be happier. My daughters can't wait to get to class. I love how organized their teacher is. We know far in advance when dance shows are going to be and we receive weekly emails. It is the best program we've been in:)

★★★★★ — Jaymie, Nov 2016

Having four girls all in dance I needed a place that was affordable and worked well with our busy schedules and this place has it all. Coach Jill is a really great teacher and my kids absolutely love her. I have to say its hands down the best one in town!

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.

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.
