From the reviews
Great place to learn dance!! No judgment towards beginners and they work really well with you to get your moves down. Definitely recommend!
My husband and I cannot express how much we loved working with Laura to choreograph the first dance for our wedding. Laura was absolutely amazing to work with and we have nothing but incredible things to say about the entire experience. We could not be any happier with the finished product of our dance routine.
Learning to dance can sometimes feel intimidating and out of your typical comfort zone. At Step By Step, you can express yourself!! The instructors are very patient, kind, and they make sure you feel comfortable while learning some impressive dance moves. I love this place!! :-)
Pat and I had such an amazing experience learning all different dances with Laura! She is such a wonderful teacher, and can help anyone learn anything! She’s so patient and really makes the lessons fun. I highly recommend lessons or classes here for anyone on any level!
Adult ballet at Step By Step Dance Studio & Ballroom
Step By Step Dance Studio & Ballroom runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. 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 Step By Step Dance Studio & Ballroom
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.
