From the reviews
If you are looking for a dance studio in the area I can not recommend Powerhouse Dance Connection enough. Watching Ivey fulfil her lifelong dream of owning her own studio has been the greatest thing I have seen. Give them a shot, I promise you won't regret the decision.
Powerhouse Dance Studio is truly a gem. From the moment you walk in, the energy is welcoming, fun, and empowering. My daughter absolutely loves her time with Mrs Ivey and has grown so much in both skill and confidence. Mrs Ivey is amazing. Her passion, creativity, and dedication to her students really shine through.
Owners and teachers are top notch! Everyone is so friendly, knowledgeable and truly caring about each other. I could not imagine a better place for my children to grow in their dance ability.
A fantastic place for any kid to learn dance and build confidence. The staff is incredibly kind and professional. Highly recommend to any parent!
Adult ballet at Powerhouse Dance Connection
Powerhouse Dance Connection runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.
Your first ballet class at Powerhouse Dance Connection
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.
