Short Dance Studios provides the best of both worlds! A high level of education and super fun and engaging for kids. Every time I watch these dancers I’m impressed. Not only are they amazing dancers, but they have amazing work ethic.
My daughter has been attending Short Dance Studios since she was just 3 years old, and now, 10 years later, she is still as passionate about dance as she was on day one. Being a part of the competition line has been an incredible experience for her.
Your first ballet class at Short 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.
