From the reviews
Great studio! Holly will make you and your child feel right at home. Welcoming, fun, and technique taught, too!
Holly teaches life lessons along with excellent dance. She is very patient and kind with the kids. She keeps the parents informed at all times. Best studio in the Des Moines area.
We love Holly and Studio Bea. My daughter is an older dancer but has a gymnastic background. She has improved so much.
Holly is absolutely amazing! She is an excellent teacher and studio owner and continues to have strong relationships with surrounding area dance centers. She really makes me feel a stronger sense of community in the dance world. We love seeing her each year for studio get togethers and at various competitions!
Your first ballet class at Studio Bea 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.
