What adult dancers say
“A very welcoming space!”
I took the beginner adult ballet class, and this was a great refresher for returning to dance! The instructor was great at accommodating multiple levels and it was a very welcoming space!
I've never taken dance classes before in my life and Mychal's classes are such a joy.
Love this place and the people. A wonderful place of dance for kids and adults.
