From the reviews
I joined the Sunday morning yoga class with Becky Adams and had a fantastic experience! She was knowledgeable and created a very calming atmosphere. I was especially impressed by how thoughtfully she crafted the flow, taking all of her yogis into consideration to make it accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
A wonderful dance studio. I have enjoyed guesting teaching at this studio. The students are hard workers and fun to teach. The owner, Karen, is thoughtful and offers great dance instruction for the students.
I love going there every Monday and Thursday,people are so nice and everybody cares about dance there's no gossiping or anything I would definitely recommend going to this studio
We love this place. My daughter has been dancing with them for 2 years! Mr. Andrew is awesome! 100% recommend him as a teacher. So caring, patient and good with the kiddos.
Adult ballet at RISE Dance Co.
RISE Dance Co. 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 RISE Dance Co.
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.
