From the reviews
So proud of Kristina and how hard she has worked to not only create a safe space to provide kids a creative outlet but to provide learning experiences and really tone each dancers skill sets to be the best that they can be. The studio is gorgeous and spacious to hold the dance classes.
When I visited PHD it was very organized and clean. All of the staff was very friendly. Kristina is one of the most talented dancers and instructors I’ve ever seen. They’re running a wonderful business and are very family oriented! I’m always happy to see their great studio and team!
PHD Academy is the best dance studio! I have never seen a dance studio that truly shows such passion for what they do. I recommend you all check it out!
Great place. Glad we joined. My daughter loves it. The teachers are patient and nice!
Your first ballet class at Power House 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.
