I couldn't recommend Turning Pointe anymore! They are simply the kindest and loveliest people. From their Twinkle Stars program to their Pointe Training, this is top notch.

We love Turning Pointe School of Dance! As soon as we walk in, we're greeted by Michelle. She is always very welcoming & you can tell she enjoys what she does. Ms. Mary has been our dance instructor since we started the Twinkle Star program. She is on top of things & she's very patient. The owners are involved in every aspect.

Super friendly dance studio. Small classes. My daughter loves it! They offer classes from 3 years to adult. Creative movement, tap, ballet, and hip hop classes are all offered. The first class is free and you don't need shoes or a leotard or anything for that. It is pretty affordable for the kind of care and instruction you get from these dance professionals.
