From the reviews
My kids have been going here for months. They teach your kids a lot and are very patient and affordable. Also the management/owners are super super nice and will sit and answer your questions forever. This is our third dance school in 12 years and my favorite
Great place to learn dance! The instructor is great and truly knows what she's doing. Also great events for the students, including performing "The Nutcracker" at Christmas.
Great place to take Dance classes! Very friendly teachers. Beautiful location in Downtown Corinth! And very affordable.
This by far is one of my most favorite places. Crystal, the owner and teacher, loves each and every one of her dancers as if they were her own. She also takes all shapes and sizes of people and makes them feel beautiful. You don't have to have the "typical" dancer's body style in order to be here.
Your first ballet class at Turning Pointe 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.
