Our four-year-old daughter dances here and we love it. Miss Dana is awesome and runs this place like a well-oiled machine. She's incredibly patient with the little ones and our daughter absolutely loves her and going to dance class!
My daughter has been going here for years she loves it's. Recital is one of her favorite days every year.
Your first ballet class at Toni's Dance Academy
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.
