From the reviews

My daughter (6 years) was loosing interest in dance and we were just about to stop when I thought we’d give Leap a try. I am so glad we did. She is loving dancing at Leap! They do a great job of challenging the dancers while keeping it fun and positive. I’ve also noticed great improvement with technique!

My daughter attends Leap Dance Center. The studio is very clean, it has multiple dance rooms, the staff has always been very helpful and kind. The owner will personally respond to e-mails in a timely and polite manner. Overall, they do an outstanding job.

★★★★★ — E, Aug 2019

My daughter recently started her 3rd dance season at Leap Dance Center, and we absolutely love it! The studio is top notch and clean. Parents can watch their child’s dance class on the televisions in the two waiting areas at the studio. The studio is very organized and communicative.

★★★★★ — Jen, Oct 2023

We absolutely love Leap. The culture at this dance center is unmatched. The focus is not only for my children to grow in their skill/craft, but also to be a kind person. Ms. Demi and Mr. Matt are constantly encouraging the students to challenge themselves and participate in opportunities for new learning experiences.

Your first ballet class at Leap Dance Center

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.
