★★★★★ — Cinthia, Sep 2016

In love with this dance program! Very professional and organized, and I can see my daughters improving every class. The recitals and performances blow my mind away and the prices are reasonable. You should definitely take your child here you won't regret it!

★★★★☆ — Kiara, Jul 2016

An amazing dance school with exceptional instruction! My daughter started dancing at this studio when she was merely 3 years old and it has become our permanent dance home for the past six years.

★★★★★ — Adriana, Jun 2016

My daughter has been dancing here for over 4 years and loves it. We love the classic ballet instruction and the structure. Many dance places have much too “mature” choreography for little ones and require heavy makeup/false lashes at too early of an age.

Your first ballet class at On Your Toes Dance Academy

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.
