"Definitely a hidden gem of sorts in Cleveland. My daughter has been a student here for the last 4 or 5 years and she loves it. The Director and owner are super passionate and dedicated to their art. The staff here is wonderful and very kind and helpful. Always enjoy interacting with Gabby and others. The end of the year performance is incredible. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity for kids to learn ballet."
