From the reviews
I can’t say enough positive comments about Springs Dance! My daughter is in their beginner class and the amount of growth she’s shown in just a few months has been incredible, this is a testament to the amount of patience and great teaching she’s received in a environment that fosters learning.
My Daughter has been with Springs dance for going on a year. She loves it. Her teachers and all staff have been so sweet. If you are looking into getting your child into their dance program DO IT!!
Amazing Experience! My 2 year old had the best first year of dance here! I loved that each class had a routine which is great for their learning style at that age. They were always understanding for anything that came up in life and we were able to come that week.
Springs dance truly does what it advertises, it is a fun and enriching experience. My instructor, Lucy, is encourageing, non-judgemental and very good as a teacher. The school is very welcoming to all ages and levels of experience and ability.
Adult ballet at Springs Dance
Springs Dance runs classes for grown-ups, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 Springs 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.
