From the reviews

I have been dancing at Thrive since it has opened and it has been nothing but an amazing experience. All of the staff and students have a wonderful presence and we lift each other up daily. Bree Fallon is an amazing teacher, choreographer, and person.

Thrive is an amazing and supportive dance studio. Bree and her staff offer world class instruction. The atmosphere is fun and Bree makes sure everyone is THRIVING. The instruction the students receive is professional while being taught in a caring environment.

★★★★★ — Sarah, Nov 2020

Thrive TDS is the best thing that has happened in our dance family, Bree never thought twice to open her heart to this group of girls that didn’t know what to do with just another thing being ripped from them this year.

★★★★★ — Lisa, Nov 2020

Come check out this new dance studio. You will not be disappointed in the professional staff and the way things are run. Very talented staff and wonderful with the kids. You feel loved and welcome the minute you walk in that door.

Your first ballet class at Thrive The Dance 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.
