Best Flamenco School Cary Near Me

Ken Presting: This shouldnt be on my timeline. Never went here

Lauren Holbrook: The school is amazing, i've been going here for years and it's the best ballet school around. They really take your talent seriously and want you to continue to dance!

Caroline Poray: This Studio is the best!! All the teachers are amazing!!!!!!!! 💕💕💕💕

althea Hilsendigger: Critical:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,Value

Emma Grace: Came in looking for a dance studio, came out looking for a dance studio. Teachers are incredibly mean to my daughter and other students. I have seen children cry because of the directors. Teachers claim they are professional. I know a lot of students that leave due to the terrible teachers. They are not good teachers either. No hands on corrections. Just teachers sitting in the corner shouting. I had really high hopes for this studio.

Ashi Gupta: My daughter loves this place

Ryan Razon: A great place for young dancers who are looking to learn. Teachers give good corrections and choreography. Some students can be mean, but are called out by teachers to stop.

Delia Brown: Great teachers, excellent atmosphere, spacious studios, and the best proffessional program in the area. If you want to be a professional dancer one day, this is your best bet. Advanced dancers not seeking a career would enjoy it as well. If you want to do one day a week however, CBC can be pricey and you would be better off going somewhere cheaper. CBC has a great cafe area and the place really does feel like a home away from home. The only concern is that the teachers are known to play favorites from time to time.

Theresa Williams: My daughter loves it here. The training is top notch and the staff are very friendly.

Elissa Resnick: I am finishing up my 1st year at Cary Ballet and I love it! The studio owner, and all the teachers are all so nice and encouraging and inspiring. They all push you to the best of your abilities. I made so many new friends and they are all so sweet and nice to me and we have a lot of fun in class together. The ballet and jazz training I am getting is amazing, and I have improved tremendously over the year. I auditioned for the Jazz Company this year and it has been a wonderful experience. You get to do different styles of dance and it is a lot of fun! Cary Ballet is such a positive environment and I wouldn't want to train anywhere else. I definitely recommend Cary Ballet Conservatory!

Christina Mary Nicole: I can only speak about my experience with the 'adult' drop-in classes, not the other programs. I came in for a drop-in class and enjoyed trying a different type of dance, although I was behind everyone else in the class by a mile. No one was at the desk to take my payment, nor were they the second time I came. I had to find someone to give my money to, and then they had trouble running my card. A few weeks later they said I had a charge for the other class I'd attended, so I had to stop by and pay for that. It was really disorganized and the classed felt like a party I wasn't invited to rather than a welcome environment. I'm sure they have great youth programs, but I wouldn't recommend for adults looking to try a ballet class.

Bryan “Chuck” Barton: They do a beautiful job with my three Nieces.

Kathryn Jezior: I love cary ballet! It is an amazing school with lots of opportunities! I love the company, she has participated in it for 6 years. Thank you CBC!

jlh: Cary Ballet is the most professional and helpful dance studio, filled with amazing faculty and an amazing studios to train in. Truely amazing and will help you grow as an artist and dancer and develop a strong love for dance.

Jessica: Absolutely LOVE CBC I have been there for 7 years and wouldn't want to train anywhere else! The instructors push you to your very hardest:)

Karen Hollebrands: My daughter has been with Cary Ballet for 6 years now. She loves the teachers, the programs, and all the girls with whom she dances. They have great teachers and their performances are amazing! My daughter has developed a passion for dance and strives to do her best each day. She enjoys interacting with older dancers and serving as a teacher assistant for younger dancers. Cary Ballet provides a nurturing and supportive environment. I highly recommend it.

Emma R: I really LOVE Cary Ballet. I have been there since last fall and all of the teachers are really nice. The teachers give corrections and help you to be the best dancers you can be. They have made a lot of changes, but all for the better. I think that Cary Ballet also has a really nice family atmosphere. They have an excellent program for all ages!

AP Thomas: The instructors at CBC are exceptional across every level, style and age group. The Alumni lists the teachers are producing are unbelievable! It is also a great place for kids to grow up. The kids have fantastic role models, the environment is family oriented and warm, and the kids are healthy and motivated. The performances are incredible!

Yuhua Li: I registered my daughter Jazz 2 and Ballet 2 the same evening , after two classes the Jazz teacher said my daughter is too young to be in the jazz 2 class. If she is not at the age of jazz 2, why did they register her in the beginning? On 8th of September when I got to know we are refused to attend the class, I asked refund. They said it need director approval, will give me e-mail by the day of 13th, but I didn't receive any e-mail from them. Yesterday on 13th I went to CBC at 4:10, my daughter was not allowed to attend the 4:15 jazz class. Then I asked about the refund, the front desk said the director hadn't given any respond of her many many e-mails all these 5 days cause the director very very busy. How about giving her phone call? she phoned, and said the director approved. I will get check in my mailbox 14th of September $365. The front desk also check with me my name and mailbox address. Just now I got CBC phone informing me no check mail out today , I will get check by this Friday . I asked why ? You front desk promised me today I will get money back. The caller said he couldn't do anything , just call let me know . Oh ,my god !

Jennifer Young: I am so impressed with Cary Ballet Conservatory and their professional training program! My daughter just began her second year there and is so happy and has improved by leaps and bounds! The teachers are thorough and fun and the combinations are challenging. They are truly preparing these students for the professional ballet world. When I have been able to observe the teaching over the last year, I have been delighted to see them giving feedback and corrections to help every dancer be their absolute best. I couldn't be happier with my child's progress and with this program. The other dancers are all so nice and get along so well. They are supportive and helpful to each other, and I think are becoming life-long friends. I truly feel blessed that my child is able to be a part of this amazingly talented group of dancers and in such a nurturing environment both in her exceptional dance training and in her development as a person.

Alex: Very helpful and friendly staff. Welcoming environment for all dance levels.Came in to learn our wedding first dance and Valery has been amazing to help us choreographe.Definitely recommend!

Elizabeth Gaglione: My husband and I have tried several places to learn some dance moves! We thought they were ok, but not great enough to go back. Some great friends of ours encouraged us to give it another try at Fred Astaire's. We LOVE it. The staff is so personal,thorough and fun. They also offer other activities and events we can participate in outside our lessons to give us more practice with our dance moves and fun. We look forward to it every week! 💃🏾🕺🏻

Robert Keating: dedicated teachers and a fun atmosphere make for a great dance experience. We love you guys!

Cary Bleasdale: I cannot overstate how wonderful the staff and experience at Fred Astaire Cary are. I've been taking lessons for four years, and the entire experience has changed my life. From beginning basic patterns to one on one coaching on the intricate details of dancing, you can get it all here. I tried a few other dance studios in the area, but this is the best.I also make a point of talking to people who have their wedding dances practices and choreography done here, and they're always incredibly happy with what they get- and their dances are always beautiful and unique.The new space is also fantastic, with tons of space and a good floor.This is THE dance studio to go to in Cary. I've tried the other ones, but if you want quality, this is the spot.

Andrew White: My wife and I had 10 lessons with Jonathan to prepare for the first dance at our wedding. We had so much fun during the sessions, and the dance we put together was fantastic. Everyone at the wedding loved it. We definitely intend to return for some of the group classes as well.

Ahmad Zein: It started out as a new challenge and here I am one year later enjoying every lesson. Knowledgeable team of professionals with true passion for the art of dancing!

Tammi Knapp: Learning to dance puts me outside my comfort zone, but the staff makes me feel so incredibly welcome. Every single one of them knows my name and welcomes me the minute I walk in the door. The customer service is excellent. The dance instruction is top notch as well. I am very happy with my instructor, Barnabus. He is very supportive, encouraging and just fun to dance with. I would highly recommend this studio.

Lisa Yu: My daughter Savannah has been dancing for 4 years and performed in 4 showcases. Paul has provided amazing lessons, choreography and memories! The whole staff are amazing to work with! Best dance studio!

Kristin Oehlenschlager: I bought my fiancee salsa lessons as a birthday gift. We loved our instructor, Barnabus, so much that we ended up purchasing wedding dance lessons. He was absolutely wonderful. He helped us put together a dance that seemed natural and truly awed everyone! He was so easy going when Mitch and I changed the dance up last minute and also understood that we were amateurs but still wanted to do a good job. He was great with adjusting the schedule last minute. I can't say enough great things about Barnabus and you should ask for him if you go!

Archana Bhalgat: Loved every minute of the experience. Our instructor Mindy was amazing. From the first phone call to the last class of the package we laughed and were at ease with her.We got introduced to different dance styles, being our first time dancing in a planned setting , This was a great experience.would love to continue with them. My husband is on board with it, and that was just unexpected. But I guess the experience made him change his mind.

Walczak: Instructors for both private and group classes were great

Glynis Teator: We have had a great first time experience at Fred Astaire. Great instructors and classes!

JEAN HARRIS: My husband Charles and I went to the Fred Astaire studio to learn a waltz to surprise our guests at our 50th wedding anniversary. We were so welcomed. Our instructors worked with us and were so encouraging during the learning process. They have amazing patients teaching two people who had zero experience in ballroom dancing. Our instructor choreographed our waltz and it was an amazing success at our party. Our guests were overwhelmed with our surprise. We enjoyed dancing so much that we have continued and are into our second year at Astaire in Cary. We are Really loving learning all the varieties of ballroom dances but the best part is that when we walk through The door we are greeted with hugs and smiles and we are just A part of this amazing group. Even though we are decades older there most of the students we are still treated just the same as everyone else. We will continue going to the classes and events there as long as we can. As well as being so very much fun, the exercise we get is truly beneficial.

JP Huang: I have learned dance in this studio for 1.5 years and loved it. The instructors are welcoming, supportive, and passionate in teaching. The fellow students are just nice.

Paulette Carrieri: We had fun. The instructors were very engaging and funny.

Heather Hills: I had an absolutely wonderful time dancing at Fred Astaire Dance Studios of Cary. Paul is an incredibly good teacher whose knowledge of and passion for dance would be hard to match anywhere else. Friday night dance parties were fun social times to look forward to each week, and the other students were always friendly and welcoming. I can now confidently dance a number of different dances, although Viennese waltz will always be my favorite! I regret that time and money forced me to quit after two years. If you are looking to become a fine ballroom dancer and are willing and able to commit to the endeavor, you won't find a better place to dance than this!

Georgia Abbey Harley: I never imagined such amazing instructors; friendly atmosphere too. I remember this one time I was so exhausted after a long day but still had a wonderful time dancing?! Incredible!

Ashlee Mason: We worked with Jonathan for our first wedding dance. Paul, the owner was wonderful as well. They had a few packages to choose from and there was no pressure at all as the lessons were not cheap! It was so much fun that even my husband with 2 left feet wants to go back! Highly recommend!!!!

Richard Hohenrath: I had a very good experience. A lot of fun, and I learned something new.

Sharon Daum: We've had so much fun this year learning to dance the Rumba, Cha Cha, Swing and Tango. Jonathan is an awesome instructor.

Challyndel Slaughter: My daughters have been with Graceful Expressions for almost 4 years now with a gap where we tried another studio after moving. We quickly regretted that decision. Miss April has managed to foster this unique atmosphere of relaxed fun balanced with a desire to be better. She helps the dancers fall in love with dancing so they want to pay attention. They want to get ready and come to class. I have never struggled to get my girls to WANT to go to a class at Graceful Expressions (in fact, I've had to limit the amount they can sign up for) whereas with the other studio it was like pulling teeth just to get them to put their leotards on and out the door. Each teacher and assistant has greeted them with a huge smile and usually big hugs. The recitals are absolutely beautiful! After having attended several different studios recitals in the area, I could see the difference from the Itty-bitty dancers to the older ones on pointe there really is a Graceful difference 💗

Lindsey McGowen: We have really enjoyed the last year at Graceful Expressions! They've done a great job offering lots of indoor and outdoor class options, with tons of different styles to choose from. Love how engaged they are in the community - we rode the Graceful Expressions float in the Cary Christmas Parade and they donated to the silent auction at my daughter's school. We are very happy to be dancing here!

Kamya Singh: We love it at GracefulExpressions. The staff is amazing and so polite. My daughter's teachers are very soft spoken and know exactly how to develop interest in new students for dance especially Ballet.

Kelly Hutzel: I can't imagine a better dance experience for my children. The instruction is very professional yet also gentle as well. The owner and instructors really want to encourage the love of dance. The recitals are amazing have created lots of treasured memories. I've cried at every one for the last 6 summers!

Mark Felegyhazi: My daughter goes here for ballet dancing. She loves the teaching, and the team is very supportive. She absolutely loves the community too.

Kimberlee Edwards: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueMy daughter has been a student at this studio for over 12 years. We couldn't be more happy with our experience here. We started when she was 4. This studio is the most gentle and patient studio. The owner and instructors all understand that students grow and develop at their own pace.

Jason Schreuder: Positive:Communication,ProfessionalismThis is the first year we have tried Graceful Expressions. We love it! We were looking for an outdoor activity for our two older kids to participate in. The communication and overall experience so far has been wonderful.

Mina Rose: My 5yo had fun. Friendly and experienced teachers. We recommend this dance school.

Ali Shipley Bender: One of the bright lights of the past few months for us has been finding Clara's wonderful dance studio, Graceful Expressions. I first learned of them because they were doing a unique outdoor dance exhibit which I thought was a great way to still allow their students to perform during the pandemic, and Clara had been asking about dance classes so I gave them a call. They were amazingly accommodating as we tried out about 10 different classes to try to find the right fit, and now Clara eagerly looks forward to her weekly contemporary classes, which are offered outdoors, virtually, or in-studio depending on what we are comfortable with. It has been so great. To know that even with covid she can look forward to her class has been such a happy reassuring feeling! And they do the coolest, most creative work during class, including incorporating writing (her favorite!). I loved how the studio worked with a local nursing home to move their holiday parade outdoors to still celebrate and honor the residents, and then we were so touched when just before Christmas an ornament was hand-delivered to our doorstep by the studio. We are so glad to have found Graceful Expressions!

Megan Hurley Dezendorf: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,QualityMy son has been dancing at Graceful Expressions for four years and he absolutely loves it! The teachers are so encouraging and really care about the students.

Shellie Cox: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,ValueMy daughter loves graceful expressions! The class sizes are small and the teachers are extremely engaged and supportive. They made lots of adjustments to safely accommodate dancers during the pandemic and continued to provide a social outlet for my little dancer.

Dana Hamaker: My daughter is in her 4th year of dance at this studio. We love them so much. She has grown in her love for dance because of the time they take with the dancers. This year has been especially difficult for us as a family and this studio has gone above and beyond to make sure my daughter can still dance. We have moved 45 minutes away and still drive to Cary one night a week for dance.

Mary Doerr: Graceful Expressions Dance Education has worked tirelessly to provide quality dance instruction to my 6 and 4 year old. They put on a spectacular individual recital experience last June and have continued to offer safe dance classes outdoors and online, which my girls look forward to. Our dance lessons have provided a regular social and physical outlet during a time of great uncertainty and we are very grateful. I can’t say enough about the wonderful dance instructors who provide grace and good technique! Everyone is wonderful with young children! We have also throughly enjoyed summer princess dance camps and their annual father/daughter dances.

Carey Randall: This is my son’s sixth year and my daughter just started. The teachers love and care for my kids so much and believe in every child. April is wonderful! Graceful Expressions is so much more than dance and is a wonderful community. This year we have enjoyed small in person classes as well as online classes.

LC: My daughter has been dancing here for 6 years and has loved every minute of it! The teachers are professional, but also kind and supportive and really get to know each dancer. The dance companies have also been an amazing experience and given her the opportunity to learn a lot of new skills, including choreography. We love how the dancers are encouraged to use dance to make an impact in their community. During COVID, the studio has been so thoughtful in continuing to provide dance in creative, but safe, ways, including outdoor and online classes. If you are looking for a warm, nurturing dance studio that also helps dancers reach their full potential, this is the place for you!

Yaritza Casadiego: Excellent

Ana Jansen: We love this studio! Our daughter enjoyed her dance experience here. If you are looking for a small studio with personally involved staff, this is the place for your child.

Elisabeth Weaver: We moved from FL to NC last summer, and my (now 4 year old) daughter's biggest fear was not having dance or not liking dance anymore.She has been welcomed and loved it here from day one. I'm so glad this was the first "local place" we found for her. During the first class she had, the owner (I think?) wrote us out a list of the best local playgrounds, ranked!

Siberian Swan Pointe shoes Make A Pointe: Thank you for the chance to work with you, teach ballet class, and do the pointe shoes fitting. Graceful Expressions is wonderful group of talented, hardworking dancers, caring teachers.

Kim King: Graceful Expressions is an extraordinarily creative and nurturing environment for every level dancer. My daughter attended a birthday here years ago and since she has hosted a party here, attended summer camp programs and taken classes. The shows they perform to highlight all students and dancers are choreographed masterpieces! The owners and staff are not just invested and devoted to dance but to our community and our children. Five stars simply does not express what a rare gem this studio is!

Lisa McCorkle: I was skeptical to start my daughter in dance lessons at 4 years old, but she expressed a love for dance so we gave Starpath a try. Their teachers really understand and know how to work well with children. I'm amazed at the patience they have with the young age groups and how they can not only keep young ones engaged in a class, but also manage to have relative success in teaching them routines. When my daughter started at Starpath she had a hard time focusing and doing what the class was told to do, but after a few months she was focusing and following instructions better, memorizing steps and routines, showing off what she was learning to us at home, and having a blast with the music and activities incorporated in class. Students are awarded with stars and get a lot of encouragement. They performed their recital at the Carolina Theater. I thought my daughter would be shy on such a large stage, but the teachers gave them multiple opportunities to get a acclimated to it and had practiced with the students so much that they did great. I was so proud to see my daughter front and center in her group on stage performing her choreography and smiling brightly. She loved the experience and is now half way through her second year at Starpath. I love seeing her grow as a dancer and have a great time in class with her friends. The Starlight Tots and Starlight Kids classes have been a great foundation to develop her love of dance and music. Now when she dances, she performs the choreography confidently and really shines.

Gouthami N: The dance classes are fun engaging and my daughter really loved it. The owner is good and answers any concerns you bring up which I love !

Thomas Henninger: I could not dance and was really a bit nervous about learning. Karina made it so easy and had me dancing in no time. I brought my Girlfriend and now we both enjoy the dance. I am forever grateful to Karina and would recommend this studio to anyone

Samuel Foxworth: I recently had the pleasure of taking dance lessons at the Arthur Murray Dance Studio in Cary, and I must say, it was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment I walked in the door, I was greeted with a warm welcome and a contagious energy that permeated throughout the studio.I have to give a special shoutout to my instructor Karina, who was an absolute delight to work with. She was patient, knowledgeable, and had a knack for breaking down complicated dance steps into manageable pieces that I could quickly grasp. Her enthusiasm for dance was infectious, and I found myself looking forward to every lesson with her.The team at Arthur Murray Dance Studio in Cary is simply top-notch. They go out of their way to ensure you feel comfortable and welcome, no matter your level of experience. Whether you're a seasoned dancer or a complete novice like me, you'll feel right at home here. The atmosphere is supportive, positive, and full of good vibes.If you're looking for a fun, exciting way to get some exercise, meet new people, and learn a new skill, I cannot recommend Arthur Murray Dance Studio in Cary enough. They truly are the best of the best, and I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from such talented instructors like Karina. Five stars all around!

Briana Weaver: I found Arthur Murray last year (2022). Started there to learn the waltz for our first dance. Karina was our instructor and she was (still is) amazing!! After our wedding, I decided to continue on my own as I enjoyed it so much. Since then I have learned over 12 dances, competed in Cabo, and made many new friends! I am so so glad I have continued dancing here, it is such a welcoming, inclusive environment. All the instructors are wonderful - Jake, Karina, Chris, Ashley, Cacey, and of course Tony!

Marjorie McKee: I decided to invest in me in 2023 & chose this studio. Dance is the only exercise, IMO, that combines physical, mental, and emotional elements - it's the complete package & it's FUN! A lifelong gift no matter your age. Jake, Karina, and Chris are talented and welcoming instructors, bringing positivity, learning, and laughter among class participants. Check me out in the Raleigh area showing off my salsa, hustle, swing, etc., just for the fun of it! Thanks to owner Tony & the AMDS of Cary.

Tia Allison: Jake Kollasch is a miracle worker and a remarkable teacher! Working with him on our first dance was one of the best decisions we made. He is incredibly talented, friendly, and most importantly he made us feel comfortable from the moment we stepped into the studio. His approach to teaching goes beyond just showing you how to move, he broke everything down step by step. We had a specific dance in mind and Jake worked his magic teaching us the steps, turns, dips, and lifts. Our guests were blown away! We received so many compliments and it truly made our wedding even more memorable. To all those couples looking to wow their wedding guests with their first dance, do yourself a favor and book a lesson with Jake at Arthur Murray Dance Studio in Cary, NC. You will not regret it. Highly, highly recommend!

Nikki Swan: My fiance and I needed some help with our first dance. We had already taken a couple of dance classes through our local community center a few years prior but forgot everything except the basic steps to the waltz. :) Karina was super efficient in teaching us some ways to jazz up our dance and she taught us moves at our skill level. She had great energy which really helped us stay alert to learn after being at work all day. She was easy to follow both verbally and physically. We're really happy with how our lesson turned out.

Jennifer Allali: We took dancing lessons for our wedding and are so happy that we did! We greatly enjoyed working with Jake and Karina- they were exceptionally kind, enthusiastic and friendly! We learned a lot and our first dance was everything we had been hoping for! Highly recommend!

Ariel Fernandez: I've learned so from there. Not only dance steps, but also to be more confident. Karina is a great dance instructor.

Ashley Schultz: So fun!

sai mohan: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,QualityI had a great time learning Salsa, bachata and Merengue from my instructor Karina. She is a fabulous dancer. I would recommend this place if anyone would like to learn different styles of dance. Thank you.

Charlotte Black: I have taken lessons with Jake for a couple months to get ready for my mother/son dance at his upcoming wedding. Jake is an awesome instructor. He understood what I wanted in the dance and choreographed the perfect dance. My son lives in Seattle WA and Jake along with the whole AMDS team (Karina and Tony) gave my son a zoom lesson to get him up to speed on our dance since we haven't been able to practice locally.I can't express how grateful I am for their time and thoughtfulness.Along with my mother/son dance, Jake has taught me beginning salsa and other latin dances. There are fun and instructive group lessons each night of the week and Friday evening group dance parties. Thanks so much Jake, Tony and Karina. I can't wait to take more lessons.

Spencer Koenig: At Arthur Murray there are many different styles of dances to learn and many different types of dancers. I have been learning how to be a social dancer from my fantastic teacher Karina. Each of the teachers have valuable insight and will help you learn wether in group lessons or in one on one lessons. I had rarely danced before taking lessons, but now look foward to social events and the lessons themselves. If you are nervous about dancing or have a busy schedule I reccomend Arthur Murray, due to thier flexibility and friendliness.

Vinay Saranga: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueKarina is a fabulous dance teacher! She is very patient with novice dancers like us. She taught my wife and I some great basic salsa, merengue, and bachata steps. We enjoyed the learning experience, and hope to use these dance steps for a very long time!

Eliza Davis: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueMy boyfriend and I had a great time during our beginner lesson. We learned three different styles of dance and had a lot of fun with our instructor Karina. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to try out dancing in a fun and comfortable environment

Liz Harris: My Fiancé and I have had no prior dance experience, and wanted to learn for our wedding! We were nervous, but the staff here is extremely friendly and very knowledgeable! Chris, Karina, and Jake all helped us choreograph our first dance for our wedding, and we are extremely happy and impressed with where we have gotten in such a short amount of time! I highly recommend this to anyone who is interested in learning about dance! This makes for a great date night! So much fun!!! We will be back!!Josh and Liz

MaryAnn Gunshefski: My husband gave me (us) dance lessons as my Christmas gift. We enjoyed them so much we have signed up for more! The staff are extremely friendly, patient and encouraging. The studio is a beautiful place to learn to dance.

S R: Taking dance lessons has been surprisingly more enjoyable than we ever imagined. The instructors have been increasingly supportive, patient and most successful in teaching us how to really enjoy being on a dance floor. Sue and Chuck

Ihsan Naji: I feel the staff of this establishment has some work to do in regards to consideration

Andrew Ulbrich: Learned how to yeet my girlfriend. With style. 100 percent recommend this place for learning how to dance.

Erin Jo Adair: Great experience with dance lessons here! Fun, informative, and professional.

Audrey Hagopian: Triangle Academy of Dance is the best studio in the area for ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop, contemporary, and more! The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable about their crafts, many of whom having been teaching for 20+ years, and they care deeply about the development of their students. When you're at TAD, you're family!

Zoe Miller: this is a lovely dance school and I enjoy spending my time here. 100100 no hesitation.💛

Megan Lisiecki: Where do I begin?!? TAD has been AMAZING! We moved from another studio, which was lovely in it‘s own right, but wanted a more ballet focused experience. My daughter has grown leaps and bounds in all components of ballet, and has been given so many opportunities based upon her skill versus limited by her age. Truly been a game changer. And the sense of community, respect, and spirit of encouraging others has been outstanding!

Dana: Triangle Academy of Dance has superb instruction. The dedicated staff focuses on proper technique which has allowed my daughter to grow in so many ways as a dancer and a person. Triangle is so much more than a dance studio - it’s a confidence builder, a nurturing environment and a gathering place for friends. From the classes to the productions, my daughter has loved every second of dancing at TAD.

Jennifer Bennington: Triangle Academy of Dance has been a dream come true for our little dancers. The dance instructors are incredibly solid and invest themselves in the growth of each and every dancer. They care for the children like family and teach with the dancer’s development at the forefront. The recitals are incredible, the associated Carolina Youth Ballet, a pre-professional program, dances two performances per year with outstanding young dancers taking on roles in The Nutcracker, Sleeping Beauty, and other established ballets. Both of my children have grown as dancers and as individuals through this group. I’m grateful for the creative, talented, and compassionate ownership, creative directors, teachers and staff, the dedicated volunteers, and the warm and lovely parents and students. We love this place so much that it factors into where we choose to live. Yeah, it’s that special and it means that much to our family.

Jenny Myers: Triangle Academy of Dance is truly the most amazing dance studio in wake county! We have been to several and checked out a lot more before deciding on this studio. We have joined TAD since the summer 2018! We truly wish this was the dance studio of choice we have went to all along! Our daughter has been dancing since she was 2.5 years old. She has grown so much and her skills in ballet alone have improved so much since joining. Ms Annette the owner of TAD has truly made us feel at home here. She always has a warm smile and makes sure to meet and greet all her students by name and taking time to say hello to parents. The entire staff has outstanding backgrounds in dance. Each year they put on the full production of the Nutcracker along with a lovely spring ballet. Watching these ballets is like watching a professional ballet! We have guest dancers in the ballet as well from Carolina ballet. The Carolina youth ballet through triangle academy of dance is truly phenomenal! My daughter auditioned this year for the nutcracker and truly enjoyed every minute! I highly recommend this studio especially since we have also been to two other studios and so far we have not seen or been to a studio that has this quality of training! My daughter has a strong passion of dance and has worked hard every year. To hear her say she only would get 20 min of ballet in other studios and not enough ballet training, we knew it was time to look into a studio that focuses on ballet which is the foundation of dance. TAD also does have an opportunity to compete and audition for the Jazz team. Even though they do compete with jazz their main focus is ballet training and technique. I love how they have uniforms for each ballet level and a strict dress code. It’s a very secured building as well for the protection of the dancers and staff. There is such a positive and accepting community of parents and dancers. I can’t say enough about Triangle Academy of dance and the Carolina youth ballet! I highly recommend this studio! We look forward to many more years to come watching our daughter grow as a dancer there!

Nicole Christi: TAD is amazing with such class and talent. The teachers are wonderful and the owner is amazing as well, she truly has her heart in this and it shows. The dances have class and so much talent. They produce amazing shows and I love how honest they are with the students, they force excellence and that is what I wanted, no mediocrity. Love it and Mrs Amanda is a doll, love her.

scottlinux: My daughter looks forward to her ballet class every week and is having a blast. This is without a doubt the best dance or ballet studio in this area.

Tina McKenna: We have been very happy with TAD. There are great instructors, real world experiences and great productions. It had been the best experience for our family and you can tell the caliber of instruction but what our daughter has already been able to accomplish.
