From the reviews
All three of my kiddos have had a fantastic experience with both Wiggles & Giggles and Academy classes at the Dance Movement. They look forward to their classes each week and have loved participating in recitals and holiday performances.
My daughters have been at The Dance Movement for their first three weeks, and I couldn't be more amazed by the results. By the second week, I already noticed a huge improvement in them, something we hadn't seen in months at their previous academy.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My family has had an amazing experience with **The Dance Movement**. My daughter has been attending since she was just three years old, and over the past eight years she has taken ballet, tap, hip-hop, and Pom squad. Every single class has been a positive experience.
My daughters have been with The Dance Movement for at least seven years. We began taking summer classes and for the past five years they've enjoyed ballet, hip hop, and pomegranate squad classes. I cannot say enough positive things about Ms. Lori the owner (and pom squad choreographer and instructor.
Your first ballet class at The Dance Movement
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.
