From the reviews
Streetside Studios has all of the things you'd expect at a great dance studio: professional dancers who have developed polished unique styles and skills in teaching and an abundance of classes to choose from for all ages (I love the Hip Hop and House classes, but there are Breakin, Jazz, Modern, Ballet and African…
After watching several Streetside Performances, our then 5th grade daughter decided to take some classes at the studio. She was immediately accepted in one of the most supportive and talented communities in Boulder. She is now in her 3rd year of troupe and her level of confidence (and dance ability) has skyrocketed.
I love Streetside! I've been going for a few months now, and I love the vibe there. So easy for adults to drop in and try a class (I've brought a bunch of my friends already), and the staff and instructors are really great.
Talented teachers who are welcoming and make dance classes for adults FUN! Love this place. Love how each teacher has a different style of choreo. The vibe here is on point.
Adult ballet at Streetside Dance
Streetside Dance 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 Streetside 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.
