From the reviews
We went for a free trail and my daughter LOVED IT! We signed her up asap. They’re awesome with children, especially with little ones :) I can’t wait to see what stage door dance has in store for us.
We did a trial class for our 2 year old daughter and loved it! Miss Noelle was so good with the kids, she was fun and patient. Without a doubt we signed up right after the trial!
Stage Door provides a fun interactive class for my daughter!!! Such a fan dance studio. I appreciate how they don’t pressure to join recital. always make it a fun experience and you can tell they really care about your child
Stage Door has been a welcoming and fantastic experience for my two daughters. From the communication and website, to the staff and teachers, it's been great! My girls love their classes and are always excited to go!
Your first ballet class at Stage Door 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.
