From the reviews
I really had a great time here. I wasn't sure what to expect when I saw the class on Mindbody but I'm very happy I signed up. The teacher, I think her name was Lisa, was super friendly and laid-back and I instantly felt at ease.
Disclaimer - you do NOT need to have dance background to go here!! I love this place. I was a dancer in high school and college and some years after and I always missed not only dance but how strong my body was. BFF offers so many dance classes and fitness classes you can do something different every day.
This is hands down the best studio ever. They have so many different classes you will never get bored. It seems like there is always something new and creative being added to the schedule. The instructors are kind, upbeat and really care about their clients.
Just took my first class here and it was amazing! It’s definitely an easy friendship environment when you walk in. I grew up dancing and danced all through high school. It’s been 7 years since so I’m definitely not in the groove or anywhere near flexible.
Adult ballet at StudioBFF
StudioBFF 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 StudioBFF
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.
