From the reviews

I have danced here for 4 years now, and SPAC is the best dance studio that I have ever attended! 100% family based, and they are in it for the fun! They have an amazing competition team, but also non-competitive classes. I definitely recommend this dance studio for ANYONE!

★★★★★ — Olivia, Jul 2015

Miss Donna is excellent with my three year old daughter. It took her a few months to adjust to not being in the same room as me. Miss Donna was extremely patient and let my daughter get comfortable at her own pace. It has been a very positive experience for her!

★★★★★ — Kathryn, May 2023

Lizzy, Cassondra, Donna, Jess and Kristen are the absolute best dance teachers I could ever ask for. I love this studio with all of my heart❤️

Your first ballet class at Suffield Performing Arts Center

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.
