From the reviews
We have had a wonderful experience at New River Dance Studio. Mrs. Beatrice is truly amazing—she is so kind, patient, and encouraging with her students. She does an excellent job of building strong ballet fundamentals for young dancers while creating a positive and nurturing environment.
My daughter has attended classes and recitals at New River for the last 2 years in the pre-ballet class. Ms. B truly cares about her dancers and their development and instruction. She makes learning ballet fun!
My daughter has been in New River dance for 3 years and she love it. As a parent I appreciate that everyone is included in the recitals and Miss Beatrice goes above and beyond for her students.
I love New River Dance Studio! Two of my girls take Pre-Ballet and Beginning Ballet with Ms. Beatrice and she is a phenomenal instructor. My daughters have better coordination and are stronger and more confident because of this studio's classes. Plus, they love the dancing and camaraderie with their classmates.
Your first ballet class at New River Dance Studio
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.
