Academie de Ballet Classique

I highly recommend Acedmie de Ballet Classique. All of the instructors there are qualified, talented and tough but also extremely kind and devoted to their students. It is a lovely place to bring our children because everyone greets us so genuinely. As a Royal Academy of Dance school the children have the opportunity to test each year in front of judges from RAD. As Miss Val underscores she is in a way being tested as well, and so her students’ success is important to her. Miss Val is a challenging teacher but she is full of fun and my children are so much happier training here than they have been for many years. Both my children hope to dance professionally and under the careful tutelage of Valerie Holgers and Anguelina Kouznetsova, they have been growing dramatically in their skills — and they are happy! It is a blessing to see my children train with such a renewed sense of joy in dance. They now feel safe, challenged and cared for here. We are so impressed with how Miss Val, Miss Anguelina and the other wonderful instructors at ABC correct them and give attention to all the students EQUALLY and it upsets us a bit for the neglect and unkindness we were paying quite a lot for elsewhere. The kids are VERY happy with the new intensity, challenge, encouragement and warmth at ABC. You can trust your kids with this talented group of kind and attentive instructors!
