Art Ballet Academy is not a studio - it is a second home. This place is the absolute best for…read moreballet training! The knowledge of the Vaganova method is exceptional. I truly believe this is the place you come to be the best dancer you can be. But not only that, it's also where children learn hard work, dedication, love for your craft and your instrument, and self discipline. All of which will take them so far in life despite their chosen paths. The teachers treat the children as their own. We always refer to the teachers as our kid's second, third, and fourth (and so on) mom! They absolutely look out for their best interest. The director is amazing. Her knowledge of ballet and her expertise is not something you'd expect to get here, and if so, definitely not at the prices she charges. It's so affordable and there are no costume purchases or crazy fees! You will not find anything like this elsewhere! She also loves and cares for her students so very much. This place is a rare diamond that Arlington is blessed to have. It truly is an honor to be a part of this dance family. I can't imagine our life without Art Ballet Academy, and I know many families and students can agree. The proof is at the end of the night, when it's time to go, and every kid in that lobby is doing everything they can to delay leaving. If they could sleep there, they wouldn't think twice about it! They love their home away from home...

I do not recommend this place. They are frigid and unwelcoming. We have been to other studios, but…read morethis was the only one my child has ever dreaded going to. Pros: Conveniently located--right off the service road and very close to restaurants, grocery stores, and a dance shop. Affordable--tuition is much less than other studios in the area. Very good technique--teachers are extremely knowledgeable. This is a great place to advance skills and prepare for a career in ballet. This studio is for serious dancers. Cons: Toxic--students are clique-ish, teachers are condescending, and moms are snooty. I can't stress enough the frigidity of this place. They only encourage a career in ballet, not love of dance. If your child isn't serious about ballet, consider going elsewhere. They are very obvious with who their favorite students are. Every time you walk through their door, be prepared to get snubbed by teachers and/or parents. Cheap--tuition may be low, but they will nickel and dime you for every little thing. Those things may be optional, but you will stick out like a sore thumb and be made to feel like an outcast. Also, there are kids who run around acting like they live there, bringing in fast food and stinking up the place. (Contradicting right? How dare you snub people but bring in fast food?)

I wanted her to have a low-pressure experience so she could foster her own love for dance (unlike the high-pressure studio I attended growing up).

Everyone is so kind, we love the neighborhood feel, and also the flexibility if we miss a class.

The competition level of your girls is top notch and your studios reputation precedes you. It looks like you run a great business and I could see the passion you have for it. So nice to meet and compete with genuine people who have such a love for dance and the arts. Your city is lucky to have a studio like yours!

I wanted to take this opportunity to give outstanding feedback on Image Ballroom and my Pro Eric…read moreDamian. I began with Eric a couple of months ago and have seen immense progress with him. I take with him 5 days a week and always enjoy and get so much out of my lessons. Eric is extremely knowledgable, a fantastic teacher and an incredible dancer also. He encourages me to not be afraid to push and challenge myself and allows me room to make mistakes and grow. It's a rewarding experience and journey. All of the Pro dancers/ instructors that teach at Image Ballroom have trained and competed most of their youth and adult life. I attended another well known studio previous to joining Image Ballroom. The difference was night and day. The level of training at Image Ballroom comparatively to the other studio was noticeable from my first lesson. The instruction level, professional dedication and culture is so many levels above other studios. If you are considering starting your ballroom journey, I would strongly consider this studio. There are many students who have gone before you who can testify to the difference of culture, experience and instruction that Image Ballroom offers.
