From the reviews

Such a wonderfully inviting space. It's a much welcome addition to the community. I don't see The Dance Factory as just a dance studio, but rather a place where you can really explore your creativity and grow as an artist, because they offer a variety of classes and dance genres.

★★★★★ — Tiffany, Jan 2016

Our daughter absolutely *loves* her dance exploration class. The instructors are fantastic and use age appropriate techniques for teaching the basics. Have you ever tried to get ten 3 and 4 year olds to do anything? They’ve got it down to a science and have all the kids following along and having a ball.

★★★★★ — Julianna, Jul 2018

My daughter has been going to dance factory for less than a year. and has had an enjoyable experience. They are offer classes on zoom as well as at Solano community college to observe social distancing. I'm so glad that they are keeping their programs running so that my daughter has a way to stay active.

Your first ballet class at The Dance Factory

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.
