From the reviews
I dance there and I'm in a lot of classes and this is the best dance place ever !
If you want a family oriented dance studio, this is the place to be. They love your kids. They have great teachers and they truly care. It is more conservative when it comes to costumes compared to other studios. We love it here.
We love Turning Point! 💓 It is the best dance studio we have found in South West Mobile. All of the teachers and owner are the sweetest people. They teach kids how to believe in themselves, be fair, and giving! Yes, giving!
I'm a teacher for TPDA and it is such a fun and positive environment! A great place for your kids to dance , learn technique, and have a lot of fun... and don't forget we have the best staff!
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.
