[QUOTE="allhaileris, post: 261477, member: 5663"] Well, things went better than I thought they would. We tried out the pre-ballet class, which had mostly 4-5 year olds but it was a good place to start. The teacher does have what she said was a "full blown" autistic daughter who is 7 and just starting to talk, so she didn't care at all about any small issues. E listened well and went along with the class. I found out one of her classmates is in the ballet 1 class (which was right after hers) so she has some extra incentive to listen well for the next couple of months and then hopefully move to the more age appropriate class. The teacher said she did wonderful. We have one more tester class in two weeks (no class next weekend) and then if that goes well I'll have her do the rest of the quarter (through May). All the girls were SO adorable in their little outfits. E will have no problem at all with the leotard, she's sensory seeking so the outfit will be fine. Keeping it off her during the week might be more of an issue! And the price was actually pretty comprable to the community rec program, and since I personally know the owner of the studio I feel it's better to go there. I know she's caring, understanding and professional vs a community center where I have no clue what they'll be like. [/QUOTE]
