What families & students say
“Their students are taught not only about dance and the technique that follows, but also about building up confidence and stepping out of their box.”
“The teachers go far beyond than just teaching students, i was a student there for 3 years and i truly feel as though i have a second family.”
From the reviews
I've been dancing at this school for about 4 years now and I can't even put into words how much I love it. Every single teacher cares about the students they teach and you can tell that they truly love to dance and show people who are younger than them everything they know.
This studio is beyond amazing. The teachers go far beyond than just teaching students, i was a student there for 3 years and i truly feel as though i have a second family. They all have taught me so many life lessons that i will forever carry with me for the rest of my life.
Four years ago I joined PAoD and they welcomed me with open arms and let me dance my heart out with no limitations. You can see how much of their heart and soul the teachers and staff put into the studio and it is beautiful.
Your first ballet class at Palmyra Academy of 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.
