From the reviews
I found Sunshine Dance Studio after a disappointing experience at another studio, and I’m so grateful I did. Their website was incredibly easy to navigate and full of helpful information, which made me feel confident enrolling my daughter right away.
In the three months that my daughter has been attending Sunshine Dance Studios, it has proven to be an excellent choice. Ms. Claudia, who oversees the studio, has been an outstanding instructor. Her kindness, understanding, and perceptiveness towards the development of the students have made a significant impact.
Sunshine dance studio is a great place to bring your children to learn the art and discipline of dance. My daughter started here when she was three and loved it! We had to take a break for a while and ended up bringing her to another school, and there was no comparison.
I found this dance studio after searching and contacted about 20 different places. We started my daughter right after they opened there new location that is absolutely beautiful. My daughter loves it! And the dance instructors are all amazing.
Your first ballet class at Sunshine Dance Studio
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.
