From the reviews
I am a student at Northstar dance academy and love it here. This studio is very positive, very kid friendly, and the owner would never use any inapropriate moves, costumes, or music. If you are looking for a place to dance this is definitely the place to go.
We have been a part of the Northstar family for 8 years and I highly recommend the studio.We have had nothing but positive experiences with the owner, staff and families. The classes focus on proper technique, while still having fun. My girls have thrived at Northstar.
My family has had the pleasure of being involved with Northstar for more than 10 years. All three of my daughters have danced here, two of them for at least 10 years, one of whom has gone on to teach here.
My daughter has been dancing and thriving at Northstar Dance Academy for 10 years. She has learned so much more than dancing! The teachers and dance families are wonderful and supportive!
Your first ballet class at Northstar Dance Academy, Llc
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.
