From the reviews

Charlene is great with the kids! My daughter loves going to her ballet class and can’t wait to show me what she learned. They just did a showcase and it was so fun to see her on stage! She had a blast and can’t wait to do it again! Highly recommend!

Teacher is amazing. We tried out a few studios before we found this one. No comparison! They just moved to a new location (very close to old location) with so much more space. It's great!

Your first ballet class at Santiam Ballet Academy

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.
