From the reviews

New to the area, we first came across Love Of Dance Studio based on a google search, while looking to get my 4 year old into a dance class. A year later, we have fallen in love with the studio and hope to continue with them for many years to come. My daughter loved having Miss. Micayla as a dance teacher this year.

★★★★★ — Sara, Jun 2024

My girls have been to different studios and I love Ms. Renée. She is very dedicated to the kids and my daughter has made so much progress with her. I love that Ms. Renée pushes kids to build a very solid foundation. It’s not just fun. They actually learn and get better!

★★★★★ — Eleven, Mar 2020

Miss Renée is knowledgeable, patient and fun! — The perfect mix for an effective teacher. In addition, she chooses age appropriate songs, dances and costumes which can be rare in the dance world. My daughter absolutely loves Love of Dance Studio and Miss Renée!

★★★★★ — Heather, Mar 2020

I danced here from the age of 3 all the way until I was 18 and off to college. Not a day goes by where I don’t miss dancing here! Ms. Renée is quite possibly the most dedicated, hard working person I know. She’s a wonderful teacher who never fails to create such beautiful choreography.

Your first ballet class at Love of Dance Studio

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.
