We were in the area to look at homes, among other things, since we will be moving out here in the summer. With the intention of supporting local and scouting out a new dance school for my almost eleven year old, we got tickets for my daughter's favorite holiday show, The Nutcracker. The venue where the performance was held was very nice but unfortunately, I think I've decided where my daughter's next school will not be. I was hoping for and expecting otherwise based on some of the reviews. I guess I'll just keep looking.

To the owner: Thank you for taking the time to read my review and respond. My daughter wants to be a pro dancer though. I will need to find a serious ballet school but I appreciate your offer.

Three of their four studios are nice for the classes but I'd say they don't really teach dance classes. They just have dance classes.

It is a very professional ballet school with an amazing performance twice a year! Very organized and beautiful place, and something really important: discipline!!!

I started taking adult ballet classes here about two years ago and was very enthusiastic about this place at first. I also met some very nice people here ... and ... some not so nice ones as well ...
Long story short - I tried ballet classes at some other studios while I was still taking classes here and found one that I like very much better.
I really wanted to like this place and continue taking classes here but the longer I stayed, the more I found it to be very cliquish and extremely toxic. I had developed such an appreciation for the art and science of ballet and this place all but took it away for how tainted it is - definitely not something I'm too keen on paying for.

The real draw of this place, besides Miss Caroline, is the scholarship that is offered to the kids who audition and qualify for it - they basically get to take most classes for free - but that doesn't necessarily mean that they'll get the quality of instruction or corrections needed to become better dancers. If you're not one of the director's favorites, you stand a good chance of being tossed to the wayside. This place is not all about the kids and dance - it's about the director and her pathetic hunger for attention and fame in any way she can get it. Most of the instructors are only substandard at best. Patricia is psychologically abusive with her students and feeds all kinds of lies into this gossip infested hole in the ground.

Simply put, this place is a snake pit, but if that sort of thing appeals to you, then go ahead and check it out.
Otherwise, there is plenty of competition out there with far better instruction and morale.
With regards to this place, in my opinion - its better to stay away.

Decent enough classes and teachers, but scheduling seems to change constantly. Communication from the office is zero to minimum, with erratic office hours. I think they exist only to serve their top "scholarship" students (the older kids) and not much attention is given to the other students.

It can be difficult to find good quality ballet instruction for an adult student. After trying a few different classes here and there, I found DCP. I started out taking the morning beginner classes and after about 18 months tried some of the evening classes too. This is one of the things I appreciate about DCP - there are a lot of class offerings throughout the week during AM and PM so it accommodates just about anyones schedule.
My favorite classes that I have taken there are taught by Mr Francisco Martinez. He teaches students of all ages and all levels and makes it an an enjoyable lesson every single time! Francisco is a patient, pleasant, and professional teacher which of course helps to foster the support, respect, and camaraderie among his students.
I so wish that he taught classes more frequently during the week - I would attend them as often as I could and recommend them to anyone who asks.
