From the reviews

One year ago, I started taking dance lessons at USA Ballroom. When I started, I never would have thought that this dance studio would become a place that I don't want to live without.

★★★★★ — Maria, Dec 2016

My wife and I have been taking ballroom dance lessons with Kate since March 2018. When we began, we were rank amateurs without a clue on how to dance. Kate, our instructor, was super patient with us and made the experience lots of fun.

★★★★★ — Alan, Aug 2018

My husband and I have been with Let's Dance ballroom since it opened two years ago. We definitely would not have said we had any aptitude for dance, so believe me when I say that if we can do it, you can do it! We enjoy every single lesson here. The instructors are talented, creative, patient, and fun to be with.

★★★★★ — Arlene, Jan 2014

I took my first dance lesson about a year ago. I could barely keep a rhythm, but now when I go out I am the envy of all of my friends. I love dancing Salsa, Swing, and the Foxtrot. All the instructors are talented, fun, and really nice. I highly recommend it!!!

Adult ballet at USA Ballroom

USA Ballroom runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.

Your first ballet class at USA Ballroom

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.
