From the reviews

I recently hosted my 6 year old’s birthday party at Little Beats with the dance and glow themes. I am just so impressed with their responsiveness, flexibility and patience. All the kids had a blast, they have a huge studio with multiple rooms which can accommodate a large number of adults and kids.

I have been taking my sons to Little Beats for over 5 years now. We started with Mindful Mommies as a support group for new moms of infants and have done everything in-between (FamJam, Rock-A-Babies, Preschool Hip hop, and more).

★★★★★ — Mara, Nov 2023

Our son Leo has been attending Little Beats since last summer, and we can’t say enough wonderful things about this program! From the moment we pull into the parking lot, he lights up and joyfully expresses that we have arrived before running in for a big hug with Miss Holly.

★★★★★ — Margalit, Apr 2025

We love Little Beats! Have taken so many classes over the years for my three kids, and they are all incredible. Every staff member is so engaging, and the energy is just so warm and positive! Birthday parties are amazing there too.

Your first ballet class at Little Beats

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.
