We have had only great experiences working with Midwest Dance Center! They are well seasoned working with little ones. It's adorable to see what my little one learns after every class. She is always so excited to go! They have a great (and easy) setup for communicating with other parents and the MDC staff.

I absolutely would recommend Midwest Dance Center! They have a wonderful mixture of discipline and fun. They really take the time to teach the kids correct technique as well as giving them opportunities to become teachers as well as students. They are team oriented and still let individuals shine in their strong areas.

Your first ballet class at Midwest 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.

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.
