Meet your teacher
Hi, I’m Ms. Tori
I’ve spent about 30 years teaching dance in the New York City area, alongside a professional performing career — Broadway, a Radio City Rockette, and stages around the world.
Now I’m bringing that experience home to the Heights as a founder-led studio, where I teach every class myself. My style is creative and imaginative — real technique delivered as joyful fun — so kids build confidence on and off the dance floor.
Because I teach every class, your child learns from one familiar, dedicated teacher, every single week.
Good to know
Parent FAQ
Is my child safe here?
Safety comes first. Every adult working with children completes a background check before the first class, we keep a no-unsupervised-one-on-one rule, and there’s a first-aid-trained adult on site during classes. Our full safeguarding policy is written down and shared with families.
What should my child wear?
Comfy clothes they can move in. Our littlest movers are happiest in bare feet or grippy socks; pre-ballet dancers can wear soft ballet slippers. A quick note: the studio floor can be slippery in smooth-soled slippers, so grippy soles help — we’ll guide you at your trial.
Can I watch the class?
In Magic Minis a grown-up dances right along with their child. For our older classes, we’ll help you settle your little one in and share how viewing works so class stays focused and fun.
Do boys dance here too?
Absolutely. Every class is for every kid — ballet included.
How does the free trial work?
Book a free trial and your child tries a real class — no commitment. We’ll follow up afterward to answer questions and, if it’s a fit, help you enroll.
