From the reviews
My granddaughter has been dancing there for 5 years now. This place is like family. They care about your child's wellbeing. Friendly, clean, warm environment.
My daughter loves her teachers! She's been dancing here for 10 years. The best recitals around - so professional.
Granddaughter loves it. You can't watch though. I am guessing they don't want the kids self conscious. Lots and lots of kids there.
Teachers are nice but the monthly fee is quite a lot considering they close for breaks.
Your first ballet class at The Turning Pointe A School For The Performing 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.
