From the reviews

Can’t say enough about Chansey and this studio! A lot of blood, sweat, and tears went into making this lifelong dream come true. Chansey’s passion for dance is contagious. Not only does she focus on technique but has a real ability to foster the love of dance within everyone she teaches.

★★★★★ — Stephanie, Oct 2017

This girl has been dancing since she was knee high to a grasshopper. She has AmaZing choreography, style, technique, and a passion for teaching children. It is inspiring to watch her teach and witness the growth of her dancers every year. I would strongly recommend taking your students to Straight Up Dance Academy!

★★★★★ — M'Shelle, Oct 2017

I was quite impressed with Chansey and her studio! She keeps it very professional and so very fun. My children LOVE IT. Chansey is an amazing dancer. I feel very fortunate to have run across this studio. I would absolutely recommend this studio to all. I've even considered joining her yoga and dance workout class.

★★★★★ — Rach, Sep 2017

The teachers here are amazing and they have several smaller class sizes so the students get more attention from the teachers. They offer several different classes for different age groups and are really easy to work with when it comes to tuition payments.

Your first ballet class at Straight Up 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.

Ballet is for every age and every body. If you're returning from an injury or have a health concern, mention it to the teacher before class so they can offer modifications.
