From the reviews
SKDS Dance Studio has an amazing atmosphere! My girls absolutely love all of the teachers, and they look forward to every class. Ms. Susie is truly kind-hearted, caring, and dedicated.
SKDS is such an incredible dance studio & community. I could not ask for a better experience for my nieces who have been dancing there for several years now. My teenage niece is also part of the SKDS competition team, and I constantly rave about how empowering and nurturing the environment has been for her.
Being at Susie’s for 16 years was an experience that I will forever be grateful for. I was supported in every aspect of my life, not just in dance, and felt that I was given numerous opportunities to grown, learn from my mistakes, and become a better dancer.
Susie’s dance school is a great place. My daughter has been dancing at Susie’s since she was five. She now helps assist teach the little girls. She’s been on the competitive team for about 6 years. She has created a sisterhood that will last a life time with her teammates.
Your first ballet class at Susie Karlik's Dance Sensation
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.
