From the reviews

The teachers are very skilled and passionate. They provide a safe space for dancers to be themselves and to learn and grow inside and out of the studio. I would describe the staff as dedicated, loving, supportive, caring, talented, creative, respectful, and reliable!!

My daughter danced at their NY studio for 8 years. Miss. Kathy and Miss. Dawn are the absolute best! They are both so encouraging, fun and creative. Florida is blessed to have these two lovely teachers, we miss them !

Your first ballet class at The Dance Connection

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.
