From the reviews
When my daughter expressed interest in dancing, she started to attend LVAD. She started with a smile on her face and has never lost this smile any time she is in the studio.. The teachers at LVAD have not only taught her the mechanics of dancing, they have helped her develop a LOVE of this art.
My two dancing daughters ❤️ love ❤️ LVAD! Eleven (11) years ago, after much research, our family was blessed to find this studio. It was important to us to find a someplace for our young children to grow, learn and feel comfortable while being active.
Laurel Valley Academy of Dance is second to none. I can't say enough how pleased I have been over the years watching my daughter grow as a dancer due to the excellent instruction she has received from her teachers.
We just can't say enough about this studio and the instructors. The classical dance education and technique are second to none. My daughter spends many hours at the studio each week and we wouldn't have it any other way!
Your first ballet class at Laurel Valley 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.
