Do you accept students who live outside Blacksburg?

Yes. Dance.tech welcomes dancers from Christiansburg, Radford, Pulaski, and throughout the New River Valley for our Debut Dance classes.

Can I watch my child during class?

Yes. Parents can watch Debut Dance classes on closed-circuit TV monitors in the lobby, allowing young dancers to focus while families stay connected.

What if my child is shy or nervous?

Many preschoolers start out shy. Our early childhood teaching team helps dancers warm up gradually, participate at their own pace, and build confidence over time.

Do Debut Dance students perform locally?

Yes. Debut Dance students perform in Dance.tech’s annual Nutcracker Ballet and Spring Recital on local New River Valley stages.

Is there a free trial class?

Yes. Families can schedule a free preview class, studio tour, and skills evaluation to see if Debut Dance is the right fit for their 3–4-year-old.

What are your safety and security practices for young dancers?

Dance.tech prioritizes safety with secure check-in and check-out procedures, monitored lobby and entrances during class, small class sizes, and clean, well-maintained studios. Parents can observe via lobby monitors and many staff members maintain CPR and First Aid certifications.

What should my 3–4-year-old bring to Debut Dance?

Dancers should wear a leotard and pink tights, bring ballet shoes and tan tap shoes, and have their hair pulled back from the face. Optional skirts, tutus, and warm-ups are welcome—plus a big imagination.

Blacksburg’s sweetest START to dance

Our Debut classes introduce young dancers to the joy of movement in a nurturing, structured, and developmentally appropriate environment. At this age, children thrive through imagination, repetition, and play-based learning — and our curriculum is built exactly for that.

Debut classes are designed to help dancers build foundational skills through gross motor development, rhythm patterns, creative exploration, and early classroom habits.

Debut Dance classes are carefully structured to help young dancers:

Become comfortable participating in a group
Build independence while feeling supported
Develop coordination and body awareness
Discover joy and confidence through movement

Each child is encouraged to participate at a pace that feels right for them, allowing confidence to grow naturally over time.

A FIRST STAGE Experience to Celebrate

Debut dancers have the opportunity to participate in TWO meaningful local performances:

The annual Nutcracker Ballet, presented in partnership with the Blacksburg Ballet
The Spring Recital - Saturday, May 23rd at Blacksburg High School

These age-appropriate performance experiences are designed to celebrate effort, growth, and confidence—creating positive memories for dancers and families alike.
