From the reviews

My daughter started going here when she was freshly 4. I knew right away that we picked the right studio. Bridey, the owner/teacher, was great with the Littles. Fast forward to present day, my 9 year old has excelled so much in dance and now competes with this studio.

★★★★★ — Jennifer, Mar 2023

My daughter has been going to this studio for 5 years now. She is 9 years old and I am so amazed at the thing she has learned and can do. This is a credit to the owner/ teacher Bridey and her staff. She is very good with children and makes them very comfortable.

★★★★★ — Richard, Mar 2023

My daughter has been attending Studio 8 for about 5 years. She absolutely ADORES her studio and all of her friends that she's made over the years. We are a family at Studio 8!

★★★★★ — Jade, Mar 2023

Studio 8 Dance has been an amazing experience for both my girls who have taken tap, jazz, ballet, acrobatic arts, cirque, contortion, and musical theater. They’ve also participated in many theater productions including Mulan, Phantom of the Opera, Rainbow Fish, Cinderella, Thumbelina, The Lorax, and more. Mrs.

Your first ballet class at Studio 8 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.

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.
