From the reviews
Our Niece Absolutely loves this School. She has only been going for a month and Teacher Charlie has already taught her so much. Our Niece has caught on in a very short time. Teacher Charlie is very good with the children, she is engaging, funny, and manages her group well.
We absolutely love this tutu school! Sunday teacher believe her name is Ms.Charlie is truly amazing. She is so kind, patient, and gentle with the girls made my daughter feel welcomed since the start by her third class she was already opening up and participating with confidence. It’s such a joy watching Ms.
My kid always has a grin plastered on her face the whole class. I love that make-ups can be scheduled if you miss a class. It makes life with my threenager much easier. Ms L is fantastic with a group large (no more than 10 kids) or small and goes above and beyond as a teacher.
The toddler class has been my daughter's introduction to ballet, and it's been such a beautiful experience. I love how welcoming the class is for parents (especially ones who are not knowledgeable about anything dance like myself) and how whimsical and engaging the teacher makes it for the little ones.
Your first ballet class at Tutu School Hercules
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.
