From the reviews
I love that the teachers at The Movement Dance Center know my daughter individually as well as her strengths and weaknesses. They know just how to push her to be the very best dancer she can be.
I have taken my daughters to the Movement Dance Center for years and they love it! The range of classes they offer accommodates their different talents and personalities; which also makes the recitals very entertaining! The instructors are enthusiastic and supportive.
We love The Movement! If you want a dance studio who will not only teach your kids the fundamentals of dance but make it fun, you need to come here. There is no pressure or requirement to compete, the classes and schedules are well thought out and organized, and the recitals are beyond phenomenal.
I absolutely love MDC! My daughter has been with teacher Ricci for 5 years and will never go anywhere else. Ricci's love of dance shows as she teaches the kids at her studio. If you want a studio where your child will excel at dance but also learn to love it and have fun, this is the studio to go to!
Your first ballet class at The Movement Dance Center
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.
