OM Grown Dance Studio is something truly special in Moore County! I had Courtney (the owner) as my teacher while I was in high school and loved having the opportunity to learn from her! Now, as a college dance major, I am so glad that I was able to have her prepare me for life after high school.

★★★★★ — Aubrey, Sep 2023

OM Grown Dance Studios is the first dance studio that truly feels like a home for my young dancer! Courtney is the most passionate, dedicated and supportive teacher I have seen in the dance community. Courtney focuses on the proper technique before anything else - this is what separates OM Grown from the rest!

★★★★★ — Christian, Sep 2023

Courtney started teaching me when I was 8 and has been instrumental in my technique, stamina, and love for dance since. She creates an encouraging environment and supports every dancer. I would not be the dancer I am today without her guidance.

Adult ballet at OM Grown Dance Studios

OM Grown Dance Studios runs classes for grown-ups, going by their listing and students’ reviews. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.

Your first ballet class at OM Grown Dance Studios

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.
