Perfect Pointe School of Dance

Absolutely love this studio! I’m bummed that at the current time I can’t afford classes. But when I could I really enjoyed the Adult Ballet they offer on Monday evenings. Teachers are great! They encourage you and are patient in their teaching. Ballet is quite challenging, yet this place makes me want to go back for more!

Best Ballet School ever! Prices are fair and affordable. Ms. Belle is a fantastic and patient teacher with her little ballerinas. We have been coming here for 2 years now and have not been disappointed! The annual recitals are very well put together and my daughter really loves them. Each class in the summer program is themed in order for the children to have a little extra fun. Ms. Belle is high on communication and is always extremely attentive towards her students needs. Highly recommend Perfect Pointe School of dance!!!

This is a terrific school. My daughter has had other opportunities with other schools and other private lessons and this by far outshines them all. The teachers are professional, constructive and age appropriate. The expectations are firm, but the focus on poise, discipline, fun and what’s in the best interest of the girls health of spirit, mind and body is evident in the students, and their development. Miss Belle is like a magnet for the kids… older and younger… and uses her influence to guide them lovingly, strongly working tirelessly to build their abilities and confidence.
To touch on the Mighty M… (does that stand for Moron?) and his unrealistic and ignorant review. Perfect Pointe is a business… a business to teach dance.-(where all of the resources go back Into making the school even better for the students). If your daughter does not have the social skills (nor do you since you didn’t even grasp the teachers correct name when you wrote that selfish, ridiculous review) why should the other students have to put up with the teacher coddling to her, or using school resources to do so? And why would you reward any child for not doing what they’re asked. Incentive is a part of real life… when you mature you might realize that. I hope it’s before your daughter gets much older.

My little girl dreams of becoming a ballerina someday but is shy and has trouble staying focused sometimes. We started at Perfect Pointe School of Dance in January 2013 when she was 5, and I think Ms Belle and ballet have helped coax her out of her shell. She has never asked to skip a class because she loves it. The rates are affordable. The studio is clean and bright. We lost the play area (and jeep) and my toddler son is crushed, but there’s still plenty of comfortable seating for parents and siblings even though it gets crowded sometimes. All the teachers including Ms. Belle, Ms Chloe, Ms Anna, are always very nice. She has since performed at 2 recitals and we look forward to helping her fulfill her dream with Perfect Pointe’s help.

I was trying to find a strong, not over-​crowded, local program for my niece to learn ballet. We are so lucky to have found Perfect Pointe! The classes are the perfect size and my niece gets the attention she needs to learn but still have a great time. It’s now been about a year since my niece has been there, and since then have added hip hop and jazz to her schedule! We love Perfect Pointe and their excellent staff.

I have been here for over two years now Mrs Belle is a great teacher and very patient with the class! There are different grades and classes that you can take. My daughter is 6 and loves to go to class. Recitals are awesome too!!! This studio also has a very well organized staff she also does nice incentives for the girls to get them more motivated to learn and get there techniques on point. The girls adore her as a teacher and look up to her. We have never had any issues with the studio or any of the other teachers, she has plenty of other teachers working. I’m so pleased with this studio and recommend it as well to everyone.

this place is great if you want to bring your little one, i brought my 4year old, who is still really shy and doesn’t like to be far from her mom, so we enrolled her in mommy and me classes, i really appreciated the time that the teacher took with my daughter and didnt want to push her when she didn’t want to dance, after about 2 wks my daughter was used to it and she actually started to love this class and slowly she started to be more independent, i do have to thank this class because my shy little girl is now a social butterfly and she discovered her love of dance, and she loves all the teachers and students here, so thank you!

Miss Belle is a great teacher and very patient. My granddaughter has been taking classes since she turned three so about a year and a half and she loves it and she loves Miss Belle. My granddaughter would love it if I would let her come multiple times a week, she counts down the days till ballet.
I enrolled her because she does not go to pre school and she is an only child, I watch her during the day for her parents and I thought this would be good exposure to kids that are not family. It has been an excellent experience, in the beginning she was very shy and Miss Belle was very patient and kind to her making sure to keep her close to her and include her and over a year and a half I have seen her do this with many new children. It took about two or three weeks but my granddaughter was dancing and prancing in no time.
Miss Belle’s own children are very sweet and well behaved. I have complemented Miss Belle and her daughter many times on her daughters behavior and she is very kind to my granddaughter and all the other children.
The school has grown quite a bit since we started and I have no doubt it will continue to grow.

My 3 year old absolutely LOVES going to her Baby Ballerina class. All week she asks me when we’re going to ballet. The instructor makes the class FUN for the girls by pretending they’re fairies and playing age-​appropriate music, all while teaching technique. They also allow make-​up classes, which is a plus.

If you’re daughter is past her shy stage, you can probably take her to this school. But if you’re daughter is still going through that stage and is too young to let go of mommy or daddy then skip this place. Our little princess just turned 3 and we thought it would be nice to bring her here based on a friend’s recommendation. So we enrolled our DD on the 3 to 4 year old class.
On the first week our DD wouldn’t let go of mommy. Mommy had to stay inside the class and probably got surprised at what’s going on with all the dancing etc. It’s new to her obviously and we thought one reason we wanted her to try this class is so that she can overcome her initial fears, develop her social skills and maybe get her ready for pre-​school. After the class the teacher, Ms. Bella said «next week you can’t stay with her anymore» telling my wife. That’s fine. The only saving grace from our DD’s experience is that she got a lollipop at the end. That got her spirits up.
On the 2^nd week we took her again and we got to the point where Ms. Bella carried her into the room. But my DD started tearing up so she had to give her back to daddy. Our DD ended up watching the class go on from outside the window. Again, that’s fine. Ms. Bella did say to come back next week and they will move us to the «Mommy and Me» class. The next story will explain why we are not ever going back to this place and why it deserves one star (in the absence of a zero star).
As the class ended Ms. Bella started giving lollipops to the students. My daughter was with her mom and they were right behind her. My DD was reaching out for her lollipop but Ms. Bella wouldn’t give her one. Our DD said nicely and sweetly «Can I have a lollipop please?» She said «this is only for kids who dance in the class». She goes on to say while looking at both of us «that’s a lesson they need to learn and I don’t want them to come here just for the lollipop». She repeated it saying one more time «I’M NOT TRYING TO BE MEAN but that’s a lesson they have to learn». OMG! Did she really say that? Uhmmmm… she is IN FACT BEING MEAN to a clueless 3 year old! As a parent I was hurt and pissed off deep inside. My daughter now remembers her as the «teacher who didn’t give me a lollipop». Why would you take it out on the kid? Seriously? We were both surprised with the utter unprofessionalism of this teacher.
Kids at this stage have trust issues. They have to feel COMFORTABLE with the people around them, their surrounding etc. You would think a teacher who seems to have been doing this for a while and is probably a parent herself knows better. Now I feel bad for her kids if she has any. We understand our daughter is probably in shock with the stuff going on around her but we were working through it taking it one week at a time. But then you meet a teacher as inconsiderate and mean as this one. Maybe she just doesn’t have the patience to develop a rapport with the kids. Some people are like that. That’s funny though because as a teacher that’s like one of the things you should be good at.
Hope this review helps out other parents who are looking at this place for their child’s dance class.

If you are looking for a dance school teaching classical ballet, look no further. Likewise, if you are interested in tap dance, jazz, and hip hop classes, they are also offered here. The instructors are classically trained and the owner, who is an instructor herself, has even taught students who are now professional ballerinas.
I have a 5 year old daughter and I was looking for a school that had a good balance of technique and fun. Other studios that I had looked into were too strict, others were too casual. Perfect pointe is just right.
The studio has 2 rooms with big windows so that parents can take a peak at the action without disrupting the class. The waiting area is also quite comfy with a couple couches, coffee maker, and a play area for the siblings who are dragged along.
The price is very reasonable and the payment process is very easy and online. We are also connected on the glassboard app making it easy to stay up to date of any changes in the schedule or upcoming events. I’m a huge fan and I am so glad that I found a dance school that my daughter loves, that I love, and where we will watch her grow.
