I greatly appreciate any information on dance classes (ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop) for a little girl who loves to dance. I live in Philadelphia, but will travel to suburbs and/or South Jersey.

What can I do next?

There is Joanna's School of Dance on Moyamensing Avenue between Broad Street and 13th Street across from Wachovia Bank in South Philly. It is a little dance studio, but she has been teaching for over 30 years. My daughter just had her very first dance recital with Joanna's and she loved it. They have pre ballet 1 and tap for the younger kids. I am not sure what age she starts taking students at but the babies look to be no older than 3. They start to hold registrations in August.

Hi C.!

I have 2 daughters that attend classes in Bensalem, PA at Dance with Celeste. It's between Woodhaven and Knights Roads on Route 13/Frankford Avenue. My oldest (6 years old) takes ballet and jazz (4 years) and tap and hip-hop (1 year as she prefers to have them a bit more disciplined). My youngest (4 years old) takes a combo ballet/jazz class (2 years). We moved to Maple Shade, NJ 2 years ago and my oldest had already been dancing there for 2 years by then. I promised her that although she had to attend a different pre-school in NJ that we would continue to attend Dance with Celeste. Last evening my girls participated in their second recital for this year and as my oldest in now on performance team for ballet, jazz and tap, we've done competitions and are even going to Disney in August to perform. The parents are a great bunch of people and for the most part, are all friendly with one another outside of the studio as well! Celeste always has her recitals at the JCC off of Red Lion Road and Roosevelt Blvd. the last Tuesday and Wednesday in June with dress rehearsal being the Monday prior. She has 2 daughters herself who are 2 years old and 2 months old and she is great with the children. Mine just love her and she offers dance 6 days a week. Her prices are reasonable (with summer classes being less expensive than the regular year). She will be offering evening class starting on July 10 (Tuesday and Wednesday only because attendance is lower in the summer) so you could always try your daughter out for the 6 week session to see if she'd be interested before commiting to the full year of lessons. Her phone number is ###-###-#### and if you leave a message, she is great about getting back to you! Good luck!
