Dance Classes
Sterling Silver Studio offers a variety of dance, twirling and performing arts classes for children and adults. The Boutique at Sterling Silver is a retail dance shop that is open to the public that carries a wide variety of products for dancers, twirlers, skaters, cheer teams and other performing artists.
If most dance studios seem to have qualified, friendly teachers, experience teaching children and a big show at the end of the year, aren’t they all pretty much the same? Does it really matter which place you decide to enroll at? The answer is yes. There are 4 main things that can make a huge difference in the quality of instruction your child receives, the amount of extra work and hassles the parents must deal with and the overall enjoyment and satisfaction of being involved with a performing arts program. Here are 4 things that every parent should consider before deciding on a dance studio for their child. 1. What type of dance floor is used? Dance is a very physical activity that requires a lot of jumping, which can put stress on bones and joints. Most dance footwear does not provide any cushioning or support, so the shock of dance movement can place a lot of pressure on the knees, and back of a dancer. The best way to prevent against potential injury is by choosing a studio with a professional “floating floor." A floating floor is a dance floor that rests on a system of high-density foam, to absorb the shock of jumping. A high-density foam base is superior to a “sprung” floor, which usually consists of a wood structure built on the regular floor. All of our studios have floating floors that have thousands of high density foam blocks under the floor surface. Our dance studio has a marley top surface that is imported. Our gymnasium has a floating wood floor. Our special floors help to reduce the risk of injuries and to allow students to dance longer without getting tired. 2. What is the size of the class? If a dance class has fewer students in it, each child will receive more personalized attention, learn more and have more fun. With younger students it is easier for a teacher to maintain control over the class and make sure each student understands the concepts and instructions. Our smaller class sizes make sure that no fundamental concepts are being missed. A smaller class size also allows our teachers to ensure that students are not developing bad habits or improper technique. In addition to offering small class sizes, we provide student assistants in all of our “younger student” classes. Our student assistants are high-school or college-aged students who have demonstrated advanced skills in dance and/or twirling and who share a passion for teaching. Our assistants are aspiring teachers who love performing arts and working with children. 3. Can I get immediate assistance and customer service? In many studios the teacher or the studio owner conducts classes and does the administration. By trying to do two jobs at once, the class may suffer by the teacher having to use class time for customer service issues, or the studio may have no customer service available if the teacher is in a class. To have a good experience it is important to choose a studio that can assist you with details like costumes or schedules, even if a teacher is occupied in a class. All of our studios have office staff available during class times, so you can have immediate assistance for any customer service issues you may have. Our teachers are left free to focus on teaching so the class can always have their undivided attention. If you are unable to come in during our class hours, our website is always up to date with newsletters that can be downloaded, a calendar of events, and our staff can be contacted via email at any time through our “contact us” page. 4. What can this studio offer my child and my family? Sterling Silver Studio ha expanded class choices and times for busy families. We offer classes Monday through Saturday. It is possible for parents to schedule classes for multiple students at the same time. We offer multiple family member and multi-class discounts. We offer classes for parents as well as children and teens. Each family with a child enrolled at Sterling Silver Studio receives one free adult class card every year! This helps busy families save time and money.? Parents are welcome to drop students off for classes at our studio. Our circle drive makes pick-up and drop-off easy, and there is plenty of free parking. If parents choose to stay during their child's class, we offer a comfortable lobby complete with television viewing monitors so that parents can watch their child's entire class. We offer tables and free wireless internet if you would like to catch up on e-mails or work while your child is in class. The complimentary coffee is always on! Our website is updated frequently, and stores all of our monthly newsletters and has a calendar of events so that you have 24 hour access to the information you need to make your class and recital experience easy and hassle free. Manage your account, make payments, add classes and view schedules on-line.

Please, feel free to stop in, everyone is welcome to shop here!

We are honest, and we run an honest program.
