From the reviews
The Joy of Dance and Ms. Joy are amazing! My family have known Ms. Joy for 20+ years and she is so supportive and sweet. My Sister used to dance with her and I’m happy to have my daughter at this studio. Ms. Joy is a great owner and so happy she took over after Ms. Suzanne retired!!
My daughter has been dancing at the Joy of Dance for a couple years now. She absolutely loves it! Miss Joy is an amazing teacher, so patient and kind! Would recommend The Joy of Dance to anyone who wants to get their child into dance.
My daughters haven't attended yet, but setting up a FREE trial class was quick and I was impressed by the communication so far. We are looking forward to trying the studio out!
This is a great dance studio. Fun atmosphere, talented teachers and amazing recitals. My daughter loves it!
Your first ballet class at The Joy Of Dance
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.
