From the reviews
I have taken dance at Paquita for many years. Miss Amy is an excellent and qualified teacher who truly loves and cares about her students. She's a perfect blend of kindness and tough love.
Paquita is the best!! My daughter loves it and the staff does a great job and you can tell they truly care about the kids.
Your first ballet class at Paquita Dance Center
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.
