From the reviews
My daughter transferred to Monarch 2 years ago and she could not be happier! She has found her forever dance home. The studio provides a technical dance education in a welcoming and loving environment. All the teachers genuinely care for your student.
We loved this space. We were looking for a place where my daughter knew if she was comfortable and could feel free to learn to live with other children and start dancing. And she loves it ! Amanda is a super nice person, so much patient and kind to everyone! I'll definitely take her every Thursday.
Wonderful teachers. My kids love going to Monarch. They have made so many friends and have learned so much. The atmosphere and learning environment is outstanding.
We love Monarch!! Wonderful teacher's, they are very committed to the students. My daughter has grown so much in just a few months.
Your first ballet class at Monarch Academy 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.
