From the reviews

Our son decided to try out dancing after attending The Christmas Fantastique performed by Zoika’s Dance School. He was immediately embraced by Zoika and her staff. Watching him improve his skills and technique in just a few months before their Spring production was as nothing short of incredible.

★★★★★ — Jeanette, Aug 2023

My daughter met Ms. Zoika when she was teaching at another local dance school. Ms. Zoika took a special interest in my daughter and knew what buttons to push to maximize my daughter's talents. Ms. Zoika was always professional, polite and supporting when teaching my daughter pointe.

★★★★★ — Ed, Sep 2021

I can not say enough positive things about Zoika and her commitment and care for her dance students. My daughter has trained in ballet with her for many years. She has pushed her to work hard and does it all with love and compassion. The quality of ballet training that Zoika offers is unsurpassed.

Your first ballet class at Zoika's Dance

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.
