My daughters have been attending the SPAA Carmel Valley studio since they were 3 and it has been a delightful experience for the whole family. They are happy to go and always look forward to their classes.
I highly recommend SPAA for children who are interested in learning ballet, other dances and musical theater. The studio has a great atmosphere, with friendly and experienced teachers and staff, who are passionate about teaching and also making a difference in your children's life. I have seen my daughter flourish into a confident ballerina over the past 4 years.
The studio offers a variety of classes for all ages and skill levels. The classes are well-organized and the teachers are loving, patient and encouraging.
When the pandemic hit, the SPAA team quickly pivoted to a virtual format while preparing the outdoor studio. They were flexible and continued to support each student and family during these tough times.
The SPAA team is also very creative, we absolutely love the performances they offer each year, the quality, the passion and the effort that go behind are outstanding! Each year, we look forward to our children performing in the Nutcracker, not only they teach them great ballet techniques, but also great skills for life.
I would definitely recommend SPAA to anyone who is looking for a great place for their child to learn ballet!
