From the reviews

I wish I could give 500 stars vs just 5. TMS is truly our second home (and has been for over 7 years now) and I simply couldn’t have asked for a better place/atmosphere for my children. Incredible teachers, caring owners that go above and beyond for every child truly makes TMS the best of the very best.

★★★★★ — Daria, Dec 2024

the owners are AMAZING we get free lollipops after class and they offer many things to do over the weeks and during summer there are summer camps I’ve done break dance there for 3 or 4 years the teachers are fantastic I definitely recommend it

★★★★★ — Joell, Nov 2024

My daughter (14 years old) attends the studio’s hip hop classes. The instructor who is an amazing dancer himself has just the right approach that makes all kids love him as well as listen to him and want to do their best. He effortlessly balances instruction time with having fun.

Your first ballet class at The Movement 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.

Ballet is for every age and every body. If you're returning from an injury or have a health concern, mention it to the teacher before class so they can offer modifications.
