From the reviews
Our daughter (7yo) has been taking introductory ballet and tap classes at The Link for three years now. Thanks to its wonderful staff and to the rich community it fosters, students at The Link are continually being encouraged to grow in discipline, perseverance, resilience, grace, humility, and empathy… in addition to…
I don’t usually do reviews, however we went to the dance recital on 5-20-23 and words do not do it justice. You need to experience it for yourself. We had ten of our family members attend. It was life changing and to see my daughter dance brought me to tears.
We just saw our niece perform three acts at the Link School of the Arts. It was absolutely beautiful. The young, talented dancers performing, combined with the great music brought tears to my eyes. So pure and inspiring. I highly recommend this school- great teachers and very inclusive.
Every child should have a chance to express themselves in the dance! My daughters and I made wonderful friends and had wonderful experiences at The Link! Thank you Ms. Betty and Ms. Sue ❤️
Your first ballet class at The Link School of the Arts
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.
