The programs they offer
“My son has been a part of Modern Movement Dance Studio and has done both tap and ballet; this year he will be adding hip hop or jazz.”
What families & students say
“The atmosphere is fun and welcoming, absolutely NO competitive snarky "Dance Moms" vibes.”
“I was worried that my son's love for dance would fade because he is the only boy in his class times, but if anything, he has gained some great friends and his passion has grown.”
“We were kind of late to the dance game when they started (at age 9 and 6) but they were welcomed and made to feel comfortable right away by everyone at Modern Movement.”
“It is so helpful how clear they communicate with families.”
From the reviews
I randomly picked Modern Movement for my girls to start dance at 3 years ago because it was convenient to where we lived and I have to say luck was on my side that day! My girls couldn't be happier here!
My son has been a part of Modern Movement Dance Studio and has done both tap and ballet; this year he will be adding hip hop or jazz. We love that the class sizes are small and the teachers are so welcoming of all students.
My oldest daughter has taken dance classes through Modern Movement Dance Studio from the time she was in the "Mommy and Me" class at 18 months. She is now almost 10 years old and still LOVES it there! The instructors are welcoming, knowledgeable, and caring.
We LOVE Modern Movement! This will be my daughter’s 7th year dancing here. It is so helpful how clear they communicate with families. I really appreciate the emails we receive to remind us of upcoming payments due, important dates, and anything else that I tend to forget once the school year is in full swing.
Your first ballet class at Modern Movement Dance Studio, Inc.
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.
