From the reviews

My daughter started dancing at MID at just 2.5 years old. It’s been 4 years now and she has grown so much as a dancer and has learned so many different techniques. And she has FUN with her instructors (Miss Stephanie and Miss Sophie) and her dance friends.

★★★★★ — Caitlin, Jul 2022

Miss Stephanie is simply the best in NCWV for dance education. Kids will get a strong foundation in ballet (and jazz/tap/acro) that allows them to learn any style. The competition team consistently represents the school and the state exceptionally well, with age-appropriate choreography and costuming.

★★★★★ — Josh, Dec 2020

At Movements in Dance, my children are learning more than proper technique, terminology , musicality and sportsmanship. So many life lessons are learned and taught through hard work, goal setting, dedication and support. The amount of experience, knowledge and professionalism between Ms. Stephanie and her daughter Ms.

★★★★★ — Mary, Nov 2021

My daughter has danced at Movements in Dance since she was 3 years old. She is getting quality dance education from quality dance teachers. This environment is the best for children from 2 to 18! They are not only taught excellent dance techniques but health and wellness too!

Your first ballet class at Movements In 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.
