Great class availability and community feel. My daughter loves her classes. They are also doing amazing at all covid safety protocols to keep dance going.

Amazing staff and facilities!! My kids absolutely love it there. My son has special needs (ADHD and ASD) and they are fantastic with him.

★★★★★ — Laura, Jun 2021

Our kids did a couple of weeks of summer camp there. We were pleasantly surprised by the organization and fast communication, we enjoyed private (through an app) daily updates on kids activities and they were flexible with a new found interest in dance by changing our camp selection very last minute.

★★★★★ — Daniela, Jun 2025

My daughter had an amazing experience while attending dance classes here! Everything was well communicated and organized. The building and rooms are clean and everyone is kind and helpful! We definitely plan to return for the upcoming season.

Your first ballet class at MindBodyArt School of Dance

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.
