From the reviews
We absolutely love this ballet school! My 2-year-old daughter has had such a wonderful experience here. From the very beginning, everyone has been so welcoming and encouraging. We’ve made great friends along the way, and we’ve shared so many laughs with her teacher, Ms.
Both of my babies just joined and they love Tutu school as do we. Not only do they have fun learning but the instructor was great when they needed help she made sure they were doing the steps correctly. Such a great children’s studio

Our 2-year-old Emily is one month into classes at Tutu School Lakewood and already completely enchanted 💕 Every week feels like stepping into a little world of music, imagination, and joy.
Your first ballet class at Tutu School Lakewood
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.
