From the reviews
As a former dancer, I'm extremely impressed with Liatris Dance Center. The teachers are skilled and beautifully balance their high expectations for their dancers with kindness and encouragement--they truly care about the whole child.
Our 12 year old granddaughter has studied dance here for several years and absolutely loves it. Her instructors are skilled and supportive, and she has made nice friends here as well. The recent school recital really showcased the students' skills and was engaging and entertaining for everyone who attended.
We had such a great experience at Liatris this year. Jess and Chelsea organized and led a wonderful showcase. Being the first year, Im so impressed with the organization and drive of this studio! Highly recommend!
Liatris has been nothing short of amazing for our girls. Jess and Chelsie are absolutely incredible and have built an incredible dance company.
Your first ballet class at Liatris 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.
