From the reviews
Stage 1 Dance Academy has been the most amazing experience for our girls! They absolutely love coming here every week, and hate whenever they have to miss class. The teachers are beyond incredible, and we feel so good about being part of the Stage 1 family.
My daughter has danced at Stage I for 11 years so far. Stage I is an amazing dance studio with top notch instruction. More importantly, the faculty and owner care deeply about their students and families.
My kids danced here for 6 years. We loved all the staff and the instructors. My girls did a couple years of hip hop, jazz/tap and advanced jazz classes. Instructors were always very friendly and well qualified. Both girls made lots of friends and have great memories.
My daughter has attended gymnastics at Stage 1 for about 4 years now and we both love it. I feel that she is getting good instruction and, despite there sometimes being 10-15 kids in the class, she gets personalized training.
Your first ballet class at Stage 1 Dance 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.
