From the reviews
Is this the best dance school ever, employees are nice, everybody is kind in there is really a dance express in, you can tell I love Robert Lee school of dance. And I thank God for making it. I think miss Amanda owner, and my all my dreams of dancing came through there.
Robert Lee is the only studio that I recommend. I have been going there for a very long time.
This is my daughters first official year doing dance. She is now 5 years old. Last year we did a "trial" class here and she loved it. Wednesday and Thursday was dress rehearsal for their upcoming recitals. It was so organized and well put together. I also love how friendly the staff is!
I loved this school because the staff is like my second family💖 they really support me and they know how to teach me you feel self confident there and you can be yourself. They know how to listen and they dont judge you💞
Adult ballet at Robert Lee School of Dance
Robert Lee School of Dance 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 Robert Lee School of Dance
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.
