From the reviews
My granddaughter Harper has been attending Premier Dance of Ocala (PDO), and it has been a wonderful experience. The instructors treat Harper with warmth and patience, and I have watched her grow in confidence. That positive environment starts at the top — Samantha has built something really special here.
My daughter Adeline has been attending Acro classes here since the fall. We’ve tried other studios in the area but she seems to really enjoy coming to classes here better than any of the other studios! She always looks forward to hanging out with the other girls in her class and the instruction is good, too.
Premier Dance Studio has been such an amazing place for my daughter, Addison. She currently takes hip hop and acro and has previously done ballet and tap. The teachers are wonderful, supportive, and truly care about the kids. Addison has learned so much and always looks forward to going to class. I’ve also known Ms.
We absolutely love this dance studio! My daughter started here when she was just 1 year old, and now at 4 she has taken a handful of different classes over the years. Every experience has been wonderful. The instructors are patient, encouraging, and truly great with the kids.
Your first ballet class at Premier Dance of Ocala
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.
