She's a very timid kid who's normally very clingy to me. Since her first session she felt comfortable and ready to participate and looks forward to going back each week. She's 3.5 for reference. I do have two cons: The first: parking. It's not really within their control and there are options. The small parking lot and garage are very narrow but not a deal breaker. We prefer to park on El Camino (which has its own challenges with how busy the road is). It's close to HWY 92 which is a plus for us. The second: there are huge windows to watch your child dance/participate yet parents grab chairs and pull it up to directly in front of the glass which makes it harder for everyone else to watch. And those same parents that put their chair against the glass (blocking everyone else's view) end up on their phone not even watching. I wish the school would put up a sign and remind parents to sit further away so everyone can watch.

My daughter has been taking class here starting at 3 years old. She has been introduced to tap, hip…read morehop, and ballet since coming for about a year and a half. It's a nice way to introduce different styles of dance to younger kiddos before committing to a specific style of dance. They do two recitals a year - one in December and one in June. I will say, this is definitely not a conventional dance class. It's more play, movement with props and toys. But my toddler LOVES it. I plan to keep her in Small Fry until she turns 5. I will then transition her to PCPA, which is the sister program to Small Fry for older kids.

Excellent adult ballet instruction, welcoming community and great classes for kids!…read moreThe ballet company has inspiring and gorgeous performances by talented and skilled dancers.

Greg Amato is an amazing teacher. Even though I started ballet at an older age he doesn't judge us…read moreand I love the way he guide us throughout the 1.5 hour Beg/Int Ballet class. He has a lot of knowledge to offer and has years of experience. Since I've never taken ballet as a child, I appreciate his pointers and give me a better understanding of the ballet technique. He is very competent at his job and you can tell he enjoys it, he also has a sense of humor and makes learning fun. The students are all friendly and various ages. Overall Greg is an amazing teacher and welcomes everyone to his class.

My daughter trained with Heba from age 9. Yes, she is strict. That's exactly why she produces…read moreserious dancers. Calling her "mean" is simply inaccurate. Ballet at a high level is not gentle. When my daughter was accepted into the prestigious San Francisco Ballet, we saw firsthand that this level of intensity is standard, if not harsher. Some instructors there were even more cutting, including sarcastic remarks like telling my daughter to "eat more fish to help her brain," implying she was not smart. That is the reality of elite training. What people often miss is that Heba genuinely cares. She has continued to mentor and support my daughter well into adulthood, my daughter is 18 now. My daughter's acceptance into SF Ballet did not happen by accident, it came from the strong, disciplined foundation Heba built. Strict does not equal mean. It means she is serious about her craft and fully invested in her students' success

My daughter's previous dance school closed down and due to the pandemic she fell behind on her technique. I was worried it was too late for her- but WCDC helped her so much! Her skill level and technique for an 11 year old is impressive and I owe it all to Angela and her staff. Angela is great! She so calm and collective, not a ordinary dance school director. I always recommend WCDC to those who want to start their kiddos in dance.

She was having a hard time and none of the teachers (there were 2) trying to make her feel welcomed / comfortable during the class. No one checks us in. No connection was made during the class. I won't sign her up. Maybe they have gotten too big they don't care about the kids anymore.

My coworker recommended Small Fry Dance Club (PCPA for the littles). She started in their Music & Movement program which incorporated tap, jazz, and ballet. Within 3 years, she was ready to graduate to the big kids' program. 6 years later, we are still at PCPA. This studio has given my daughter so much confidence and helps her to continue blossom into an outstanding performer. She, like many of her dance friends, has a full dance schedule, dancing almost every day of the week. She is has been in their Musical Theater comp team for the last 3 years and is preparing to add 3 more teams to her schedule. They have won numerous awards and the teams are always supportive of each other. Jana, Carlos, and their team and school are wonderful!

I was a little nervous about sending my son off into a room since he's not quite of the age to do that with new people that I haven't gotten a chance to meet yet, but it was actually better for the kids + they had a live zoom feed of the room to watch how it was going. The teacher was really fantastic and understood the assignment and read the room perfectly, well experienced in teaching this age. She helped ease the kids in, offered toys for them for the session, and so on. Made it really interactive and fun. Started off with a singalong asking for participation on how to say hello in different languages which the kids loved, genius. Overall a very high EQ teacher and well structured class agenda, really nailed the teaching and interaction that works well at this age (and frankly any age, in the appropriate form). I was impressed and taking notes. My son had a cheeky grin after the class when he saw me after and couldn't wait to tell me what happened. He is excited for the next class!

A couple of the teachers decided to carry on the magic of Kirkpatrick's and open up Better Together Dance Theatre. My daughter started dancing at Better Together 4 years ago in the Tiny Dancer class where her love of dance began (thank you Miss Kelly!!). The teachers/owners are amazing and the environment has made her grow into a confident little girl. This studio is no pressure, no competition just a nurturing place to be yourself, learn, perform and have fun! They have a small holiday showcase as well as a stage performance at the end of the season in June. I also started in their adult ballet program and it has made such a positive impact in my life, not to mention the BEST workout i've ever found! They offer free trial classes to all ages/classes- I highly recommend trying this studio!
