New online store for Fall dress code!!

We are excited to announce the new online store where you can purchase all your dancer’s shoes and leotards needed for classes in the fall! The new store is- Shop Nimbly. If you danced with us last year or pre-covid, it works very similar to Curtain Call for Class. Please see below for directions on ordering what your dancer will need. We are in the process of getting new shoe sizing kits in for all of the classes. We will have these in August.

  • Our dress code for each class can be found HERE

  • Create an account at Shop Nimbly via the link above.

  • Add your dancer and Allegro Dance as the studio.

  • Shop “My Studio’s Lists” from the top menu. You will find your dancer’s class on that page.

  • Simply click on their class to see the shoes, tights, and leotards needed!

Please note that dance shoes run differently than street shoes. Please follow the guidance of the sizing charts for each shoe when determining what size your dancer needs. If you prefer to try them on before ordering, we can fit you at the studio once the kits arrive.

As always, we have a great selection of I Love Plum tutus in stock at the studio, tights, bows and fun Allegro Dance apparel!

Welcome Progressing Ballet Technique to Allegro Dance!

Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) is an innovative body-conditioning and strengthening program developed by Marie Walton-Mahon for students to understand the depth of training muscle memory in achieving their personal best. One of the important elements used in the PBT method is muscle memory which helps to improve students' understanding of core stability, weight placement and alignment. Each exercise in the PBT program has been developed with care and guidance by Marie Walton-Mahon alongwith a team of physiotherapists.


Miss Jenn is excited about bringing PBT to Allegro Dance this Fall! She received her certification in the PBT method on May 17, 2020. The students will love this method and the technical results and injury prevention it provides!

Allegro Dance Goes Virtual!

All of us at Allegro Dance are missing our dance families so much during this difficult time of quarantine due to COVID 19. Today we launched virtual privates as a way to stay connected to our students and to help them continue to improve and move while they are stuck at home! Miss Jenn loved seeing some of her dedicated students and working with them even if it was over a computer. If you are interested in a virtual private during this tough time, please email us at jenn@allegrodancemi.com. We cannot wait to see ALL of our dancers back at the studio as soon as possible! Until then, stay positive and keep dancing!

Wider Selection of Classes at Allegro Dance Added!

Allegro Dance will turn 3 in April and we are so proud of the studio it has become and the families it has welcomed! We launched our website in April 2016 and by August 2016 we ran our first Swan Lake Ballet Camp. In September 2016, we opened our doors for our first official season of dance. At that time, we had 6 weekly classes on the schedule and finished our first season with 21 kids. Now almost 3 years later and with a remodeled space to enjoy, we are finishing our 3rd full season of classes with 30 weekly classes and 405 students!! Wow!

As we continue to grow and open registration up for the 2019-2020 dance season, it is exciting for us to be able to add new class options and levels for our students. Here’s what is coming for the 2019-2020 season:

  • 10-13 year old classes in Tap, Jazz and Ballet

  • Leaps and Turns class for Ballet and Jazz dancers ages 7 and up

  • A third level to our pre-professional Ballet program
