Awesome experience! I was really nervous but I am so glad I went! The beginners class was so much fun, the perfect amount of stretching, conditioning, tricks and cool down. It is a full body work out! The studio is beautiful and modern and the owners/instructors are fantastic.
I have been going to classes here for about 5 years. I started with Pole dancing and now also do Lyra, Aerial Hammock and Pilates. They have remodeled and also offer spinning, yoga, aerial dance, and various workshops.
I love my experience here! I am an adult and I was worried I would be a bit awkward when starting ballet as a middle-age learner. The teachers at Cleveland City Dance made me feel welcome and even cherished. I started with one class, then within a few weeks I added a second then third class.
