I have two young girls who are thriving at Polaris Dance Institute! Their range of teachers in so many different styles allows my girls to become versatile in each genre as well as learn how to adjust to different teaching styles. The galaxy theme has allowed the studio to attract male and female dancers.
We love Polaris Dance Institute! The teachers, staff and students have become more like family the past 4 years my daughter has attended. The teachers are so talented and truly care about their students. My daughter loves it there. I highly recommend Polaris to anyone looking for a new dance family.
Your first ballet class at Polaris Dance Institute
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.
