From the reviews

We were at another local dance studio and I saw my daughters love for dance fade. We decided to try TCDC and have not turned back. Her love for dance has been reignited, which has been a saving grace during such a difficult year.

Hip Hop classes for all ages? Heck yes! My whole family, including my self, take Hip Hop classes here. And the cost for such fun exercise? Nominal - really not bad at all. I thought my kids would never stop playing minecraft - and now they are excited about dance!?! Thanks Tara!

Your first ballet class at Tara Cluck Dance Center (Main Campus)

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.
