From the reviews

The location is very convenient for us in Sun Prairie, with a lot of parking space, and the ballet teacher (Madisen) of my baby girl is amazing and patient!

My experience dancing here as a middle-aged hobbyist has been stupendous. They are fun, flexible, and welcoming to someone who never danced before now.

★★★★★ — Debi, Oct 2023

We had been looking for a studio to explore dancing for our little one. Once moving to Sun Prairie, we were excited to see that Monona Academy of Dance had a location in Madison and Sun Prairie! The Sun Prairie location is inside the Sun Prairie ice rink next to SP East HS and has their own separate entrance.

Your first ballet class at Monona 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.

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.
