From the reviews

This dance school understands what preschoolers need - structure, but also lots of creativity and movement. My daughter has improved in following simple instructions and has developed a true passion for music and dancing.

★★★★★ — Vivian, Jul 2025

Loved it. My girl was really shy so she didn't do much, but Ms. Elsa kept inviting her to participate while giving my girl space. I also noted that Ms. Elsa was great at redirection and flexibility with her toddler students. This place is clearly good for tiny dancers.

Your first ballet class at Tutu School San Dimas

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.

Ballet is for every age and every body. If you're returning from an injury or have a health concern, mention it to the teacher before class so they can offer modifications.
