From the reviews
I am saddened to read the review below from Candice and that she this felt that way at Karyns Dance Place. Our daughter has and continues to have a wonderful experience at KDP. Yes, she has danced there for years but has never felt uninformed or not apart of something.
Wonderful place for dancers and dance enthusiasts alike, I think the dads of the dancers are especially talented.
My son danced at Karyn’s for several years during high school. It was great watching his confidence in himself take off. He felt comfortable, was encouraged and had a wonderful experience. Thank you for such a fantastic experience.

Your first ballet class at Karyns Dance Place
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.
