From the reviews
We love little leaps! We started in the mommy and me class and have worked up to an independent class now. My son loves the songs and often sings and dances to them at home. Ms. Carrie provides a very flexible and laid back atmosphere for kiddos and it’s been fun to see the little ones grow with her!
Miss Carrie is a baby whisperer! She is a talented and experienced teacher, and my son loved her classes. If you want a safe and fun place to dance, it is at Little Leaps!
Our experience at Little Leaps has been amazing! Ms. Carrie immediately welcomed our family into her class, calling my girls by name. We feel so comfortable at our Little Leaps classes, knowing we can come as we are (and with 2 kids under 2, that’s so important for me!).
Can’t say enough about Little Leaps! From the first mommy & me dance class we fell in love with Ms. Carrie and her style of teaching! My daughter is now in her toddler tap dancing class and it is amazing to see her listening and learning from Ms. Carrie! We are so thankful to have found little Leaps!
Your first ballet class at Little Leaps
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.
