From the reviews

Studio 9 is hands down the best studio in the Denver Metro area. Not only do they offer classes for literally all ages, yup moms too, but they have creative dance camps during summer and all inclusive birthday parties (including goodie bags and present for the birthday girl or boy) Hands down this was the best…

★★★★★ — Karen, Apr 2019

This dance studio is amazing! They have dancers of all levels and my daughter has felt welcomed since day 1! We tried another dance place first and I didn’t like that I couldn’t see my daughter working on her skills. At Studio 9 they have cameras in each room and tv’s in the waiting area! A huge plus for me!

★★★★★ — Amanda, Apr 2019

Our daughter began taking classes at 3 years old with Ms Becca and fell in love with dance! 8 years later, we're still going strong at S9! The teachers are fantastic and everyone has equal opportunity to grow as they are interested in. Studio 9 is our 11 year old's home away from home 3-4 days a week!

★★★★★ — Chelsea, Mar 2025

I can't say enough wonderful things about Studio 9! From the moment my family walked in, we felt welcomed by the warm, inclusive atmosphere. The instructors are not only incredibly talented but also genuinely passionate about creating a space where dancers of all backgrounds and abilities can thrive.

Your first ballet class at Studio 9 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.
