From the reviews
As a family of dancers, we cannot say enough about the quality of dance instruction our kids have received here. The teachers instill a joy of dance into each student while giving them incredibly solid technique.
I have been dancing for over 35 years, so when I moved to Maine 7 years ago I was looking for a dance home for myself and my daughter. Thomas offered Mommy & Me classes for 18 month-olds, so we signed up. Best decision ever!
Fantastic instructors in a gorgeous setting. Classes for all ages and abilities, and the prices are better the more classes or kids you have! All of my 4 children attend, multiple classes each. I could not afford to go anywhere else locally, and quality is not compromised for the quantity!
Grew up dancing here and now take classes as an adult. Thomas School of Dance provides a no judgment learning environment and a high quality dance education! Great teachers and great students. It is absolutely the longest running dance studio in the area for a reason!
Your first ballet class at Thomas School 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.
