More Than a Workout, It’s a Place to Grow
Curious how Studio East Dance Company’s Adult Dance Sessions for ages 18 and up compare to typical gyms or fitness classes? Here’s a side-by-side look at why our approach offers more than just physical benefits. It’s about balance, connection, and a better way to stay active.
Most gyms rely on self-led workouts or generic plans with minimal instructor feedback. This can limit growth and increase the chance of injury.
Repeating the same routines can reduce motivation and interest, making it harder to stay consistent.
Most gym workouts are done alone, missing out on the positive energy and connection of group-based movement.
Gyms often concentrate on physical appearance or metrics, with little emphasis on emotional or mental well-being.
Our instructors guide each dancer with individual attention, encouraging safe progress while supporting both physical and emotional growth.
Each class offers variety and purpose. Sessions are designed to keep dancers challenged, focused, and motivated.
Studio East offers a welcoming space where dancers of all backgrounds support one another and share in their progress.
Our classes promote mental clarity, reduce stress, and improve mobility, offering full-body wellness in every session.
Adult Classes in Ballet, Tap, Jazz, and Hip Hop
Our Adult 18+ dance sessions include Ballet, Tap, Jazz, and Hip Hop, designed to meet adults where they are. Whether you are completely new or returning after time away, each style supports clear physical and cognitive growth.
- Ballet improves posture, balance, and functional strength.
- Tap enhances coordination and timing through rhythmic footwork.
- Jazz builds flexibility, movement quality, and spatial awareness.
- Hip Hop improves cardio fitness, musicality, and confidence.
Each class introduces foundational skills before progressing to more challenging combinations. Our instructors provide consistent feedback and support so you can make progress you can feel. This structured approach helps adult dancers build real ability over time, setting the stage for more precise movement and long-term results.
Build Precision Through Style-Specific Practice
Adult dancers benefit from training that is focused, consistent, and well-paced. At Studio East, each style is taught with a clear path for improvement. Instructors guide you through each step so you gain control, memory, and precision.
- Ballet strengthens alignment and muscle control through barre and center work.
- Tap sharpens mental focus with complex rhythms and directional changes.
- Jazz builds clean lines and flow through repeated phrases.
- Hip Hop improves timing and body control through drills and short sequences.
Every class builds your ability to focus and move with intention. Dancers begin to notice better coordination, improved balance, and more confidence in how they carry movement. These gains carry into everyday life and set a strong foundation for the kind of resilience that builds over time.
Keep Showing Up and Keep Improving
Adult dancers often face self-doubt, physical limitations, or time constraints. That is why our classes are designed to support consistency and celebrate steady growth. You will not be expected to master anything overnight. Instead, you will be encouraged to come as you are, work at your pace, and build from wherever you start.
Instructors break down movements clearly and help you track your own improvement. Whether you are working on core strength in ballet or adding control in hip hop, regular attendance brings visible results. As your ability grows, so does your confidence and discipline.
The process also supports emotional growth. Learning to manage mistakes, stay focused, and push through frustration makes a difference in how you show up in other areas of life. That strength becomes even more meaningful when surrounded by others who are doing the same.
Adult Classes That Bring People Together
Studio East is a place where adult dancers build lasting connections through shared goals and consistent practice. Classes are welcoming and structured to support both personal growth and group encouragement. Whether you come to class with a friend or start out on your own, you will be surrounded by people who show up for the same reasons you do.
Dancers form meaningful relationships by cheering each other on, helping one another remember combinations, and staying motivated together. This sense of connection is what keeps many adults coming back season after season.
You are not just learning to dance. You are joining a group that values hard work, kindness, and mutual respect. That kind of environment supports long-term success and makes every session more enjoyable and impactful.

We absolutely love Studio East! My kids first did a hip/hop tumble class there last year which they really enjoyed, then we started doing the monthly parent night out events (which are fabulous!!), then we did the summer dance camps this past summer which are also incredible and most recently have been doing the recreational dance classes. Miss Ramona and all the other teachers and staff are so kind, caring and helpful. Having two shy kids, I really appreciate the extra effort everyone takes to make all the kids feel welcome and make sure they are having fun. We highly recommend Studio East and cannot say enough good things about it!
Great place for tour child's journey in dance! Great staff! Lots of fun
Ramona runs a wonderful dance studio. My 4 year old started off nervous and shy, and ended the year full of confidence, friendships, dance skills, and giggles each week. She loved dance night so much. Ramona does a great job for this age, I didn’t even realize my daughter was old enough to start but I’m so happy I found this studio. Everyone so encouraging, welcoming, and great dancers leading the way. Ramona is a inspiration and the teachers she has along side her. Thank you for everything
Studio east has played such an important part in my daughters life. They are invested in every child and their abilities. The confidence, structure and discipline instilled into my daughter is something I will forever be grateful for!
We had our daughter's 8th birthday party at Studio East Dance Company. My daughter and 10 of her friends had THE BEST time. Miss. Ramona was so amazing with the kids and provided such a thoughtful, personalized experience for my daughter. The studio helps with set-up and clean up as well. Would 100% recommend to anyone considering having a birthday party here!
I love studio east and EVERYONE there feels like family and the studio feels like home. Miss. Ramona and Miss Vikkie are my tap, jazz, solo, and duo teacher. They made me improve SO much!
My daughter has been taking classes at Studio East for 3 years now and loves it. The studio has a fun, positive, encouraging atmosphere and the classes are really affordable. My daughter’s favorite day of the week is when she gets to go to her “studio.”
My daughter absolutely LOVES Studio East! She feels part of another family there. The teachers are a amazing and help my daughter reach her goals.

After moving from our old studio we were looking for a new studio for our 11yr old who lives and breathes dance. STUDIO EAST IS THAT PLACE!❤️ The dance instructors.are encouraging, fun, strict and loving all at once. I can not tell you how much she has grown since Sept '19 to now. The joy they have brought back to her love of dance is priceless. The parents I have met are wonderful. The kids all encourage each other and have welcomed my girl with open arms and hearts. I highly recommend this studio.
My daughter has been dancing at Studio East for a few months and I am so glad we found them. My kindergartener is enrolled in their tap and ballet class. What I love most about the studio is that the structure of the class/instruction and the expectation from my daughter are age appropriate. I highly recommend Studio East.
Thank you to the Studio East team for ALL that you do for our dancers! Monday is my little one’s favorite day of the week - she loves coming to dance class! We feel so comfortable knowing she is safe, happy, learning, building friendships, and is so well cared for during class!

Had the absolute BEST birthday party here!! The kids had loads of fun, there was time set aside for eating and dessert, as well as dancing and games!! HIGHLY recommend!!!!
Studio East Dance Company has been my children's home away from home for the last five years. They have received quality instruction by caring professionals who not only teach dance but also foster a sense of community, teamwork, and positivity. Our children feel a strong sense of belonging, are genuinely care for by staff, are challenged appropriately, and are provided with many opportunities for growth. We love Studio East and continue to recommend it to friends.
I could not be more pleased with this dance studio! Ramona is amazing teacher, extremely professional, and goes above and beyond for all of her students. She’s intentional with every student and goes out of her way, outside of the studio, to be sure your child is happy while at dance! My daughter is starting her second year there and we couldn’t be happier! There are so many great opportunities for all the students and their families. Ramona truly cares about all of her students and you can feel it in every interaction and practice.
