From the reviews
My two children are polar opposites. I have an extremely high energy, gregarious 4 year old boy. I also have a 2 year old girl who is more laid back and prefers to observe new people and situations for awhile before jumping in. They are both met with love and acceptance just the way they are at Miss Kim’s.
We LOVE Miss Kims! Our experience has been 100% positive with the Staff, Instructors, classes and performances! We love how structured Miss Kims studio is, it really teaches a child how to be disciplined and have respect for dance! Miss Kim has such an amazing ability to interact with each child at his/her level.
If I was allowed to give Miss Kim’s 10 stars, I would. I have watched my shy stuck like glue child blossom at Miss Kim’s. What this tells me is that she feels comfortable, encouraged. supported, loved, and excited within the walls of this studio.
We’re just beyond blessed to know Miss Kim and her wonderful teaching staff. We have loved being part of this amazing studio. It’s more than a dance studio. It’s just so much more. Miss Kim came into our lives three years ago when we moved to North Carolina.
Adult ballet at Miss Kim's Children's Dance and Arts
Miss Kim's Children's Dance and Arts runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.
Your first ballet class at Miss Kim's Children's Dance and Arts
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.
