For new young dancers, the excitement of being in the studio with all of the activity can be overwhelming.  It’s not unusual for it to take a class or two for the student to become comfortable and confident.  We want dance to be a positive experience for everyone involved. 

For older first-time dancers we ask that they relax, listen, do their best, and have fun! 

The class descriptions are a helpful guideline. 

In order to have a positive and successful experience, dancers need to be placed at the correct level for their skills and age.
