From the reviews
We are so thankful for The Dance Studio! We drive 80 miles round trip for our daughter to experience top notch training from the absolute best, and it’s definitely worth every mile.
Jaclyn has been life changing for our daughter! She has taken this quiet shy insecure girl at 10 years old and helped her blossom into this confident talented dancer at 12!! We are so grateful for her expertise and patience and guidance with our sweet Lily!
Best kept secret of the Oak Mountain area! Such a loving and nurturing environment. My daughters have thrived under the instruction of this studio!
We love the Dance Studio! It is such a welcoming environment and the dance instruction is top notch!
Your first ballet class at The Dance Studio
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.
