In their words
-
Preschool
"Our daughter was so shy she hid behind my legs at the trial. Priya let her watch from the doorway for two weeks. Now she counts us in at home."
Alana P. · Parent, Little Movers
-
Ballet
"The fee page is the reason we picked Count Eight. We knew the costume and recital costs in September, not in May."
Corey M. · Parent of two dancers
-
Hip Hop
"My son swore dance was not for him. Hip hop with Jordan changed that in one class. Clean music, and nobody forced him into the circle."
Renée D. · Parent, Hip Hop 1
-
Adult
"I started tap at 41 with two left feet. Hannah never once made me feel slow. I danced in the June show and my kids lost their minds."
Sasha T. · Adult Tap
-
Tap
"Great teachers and a well-run show. Parking at 5 p.m. on a weekday is tight, so come a few minutes early."
Mark L. · Parent, Ballet 2 and Tap 2
-
Competition
"The team is serious about training but the pressure is low. We got a written cost estimate before we said yes, which I have never seen before."
Jen W. · Parent, Junior team
-
Ballet
"Pointe was a big ask in our house. Marisol explained the readiness check and why waiting a year was the right call. She was right."
Helena K. · Parent, Ballet 3
-
Jazz & Lyrical
"Lovely studio and lovely people. The online schedule could show the room for each class a bit more clearly at drop-off."
Dev S. · Parent, Jazz 1
-
Adult
"Saturday Barre is the best hour of my week. Real technique, explained like you are an adult, with zero mirror shaming."
Monique F. · Saturday Adult Ballet Barre
