From the reviews
This will be my daughter’s second season with TDF and my daughter loves it! She’s always been a friendly kid and watching her make so many friends and doing what she wants to do and loving it is just amazing to me! Mr. Michael creates a warm and inviting environment, everyone there makes you feel right at home! Mrs.
My son has high functioning autism and really wanted to do something himself as his sister is in dance and at The Dance Factor for multiple classes. Mr Michael convinced him to try Acro and he loved it! He learned so much and actually went on stage for recital!
My daughter is starting her 3rd year at The Dance Factor and absolutely loves it and Mr Michael. He is the most kind and patient instructor and so good with all the kids! He makes the classes so much fun and keeps things interesting with theme weeks. No place we’d rather be!
The Dance Factor welcomes students at any dance level. You just need to love to dance. Mr. Michael and staff provide a warm and accepting environment for students to flourish. My daughter has done so well here and has made tremendous growth in her dancing abilities and confidence.
Your first ballet class at The Dance Factor
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.
