From the reviews
My family absolutely loves this dance studio! Miss Jill does a superb job with dancers of all ages. Miss Jill has taught my little dancer the beauty and gracefulness of ballet, but she also teaches her students about respect and responsibility, and each lesson is also peppered with plenty of fun.
Awesome for kids. Jill does amazing with positive comments, feedback and building kids up. It's a fun class for the kids. Parents have a separate waiting area which is great and Jill does fun things like parent watch week, or dad week etc. Overall a clean setup and the kids have a blast. The price is very reasonable!!
Took my daughter to the mommy and me dance class. It was a fun thing for a 2 year old. The building could do with a bit more climate control but I don't think the dance studio is in control of that.
My daughter has gone here for Ballet for many years. Her teacher is wonderful, patient, and kind. My daughter loves it here. It is Not for cheer, tumbling or gymnastics of any sort just ballet.
Your first ballet class at Simple Gifts 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.
