★★★★★ — Andrea, Jan 2019

They had a recital today. A full team. Masked up and parents viewing from inside their cars. Good show.

★★★★★ — Rc, May 2021

LOVEEEEEE that this is a dance studio for an underserved community. Denisea is such a hard working yet caring director. I haven’t met anyone that never had good things to say about the studio, nor the people in it.

★★★★★ — Mia, Jan 2025

Awesome! Dance preps for youth! Magnificent. Hard working. So proud of these young girls! My church is next door & sometimes I see them practice out side. So gifted! I am Minister Lane @ church next door. Way to go girls!

Your first ballet class at Rising Stars Academy of Dance & Performing Arts

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.

Ballet is for every age and every body. If you're returning from an injury or have a health concern, mention it to the teacher before class so they can offer modifications.
