From the reviews
I love Jen, the owner, of Spotlight. My daughter took lessons directly from Jen several years ago, and now my granddaughter has started at her studio!! Jen is incredibly warm and welcoming, always striving to ensure it’s a positive, upbeat, and welcoming environment.
Wonderful experience at this dance studio. Owner and teacher, Jen Barden, hits just the right tone for the class by keeping things light and fun but also teaching real dance technique. She teaches to every level in the room and makes each dancer feel like they belong.
Our three year old daughter loves her tap/ ballet class. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and great at supporting her in her first dance class. Would highly recommend spotlight.
I took the tap dance class in Vergennes, which was light-hearted and a lot of fun. Elisa's a great teacher. Highly recommend!
Your first ballet class at Spotlight Vermont
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.
