From the reviews

My husband and I took ballroom lessons for our wedding at Metro Dance. Our instructor was Lauren Johnson. We LOVED Lauren! This class was very small and intimate, so we got to know Lauren on a more personal level. She taught us a variety of dances and helped us put together our first dance.

I have 2 daughters that have both danced at Metro since the age of 2 1/2 years old. It has been a positive experience from the beginning. I love watching my girls grow in their skill level and in their love of dance in an environment that is encouraging and positive.

★★★★★ — Alyssa, Jan 2019

I'm in my second season with Metro Dance as an adult ballerina and I couldn't love it more. All the teachers are so nice and the kids are lovely to be around because learning kindness and team work is as important as dance here.

Your first ballet class at Metro Dance Company

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.
