From the reviews
At Weehawken we’re taught to love one another we use our team work, talents, and skills to learn together in order to put on these amazing one of a kind performances! Through every dance class I’ve been in here at Weehawken, whether it was in Ridgeway, Ouray, or Montrose was able to shape who I am today.
We absolutely love weehawken dance! The dance classes offered here are phenomenal: jazz, ballet, hip hop, lyrical…just to name a few! My son and daughter have taken all of these and their lives have been greatly enriched due to the magic of Weehawken productions.
Trying silks as an adult has been one of the most humbling, yet gratifying things I have done in a very long time. I won't lie--it is hard, but I am gaining strength and self-confidence as I improve with every class.
We've had the pleasure of working with Weehawken Creative Arts and Dance for the past 10 years, and it has been an incredible journey. My daughter has not only learned the art of dance but has also grown within a wonderful community of amazing friends and fantastic teachers.
Adult ballet at Weehawken Dance & Aerial — Montrose Dance, Aerial Silks and Arts Studio
Weehawken Dance & Aerial — Montrose Dance, Aerial Silks and Arts Studio 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 Weehawken Dance & Aerial — Montrose Dance, Aerial Silks and Arts Studio
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.
