My almost 3 year old daughter and I regularly attended the Mommy & Me ballet class on Saturday…read moremornings with Ms. Emily and it was one of the highlights of our week. Ms. Emily has the biggest heart and is a complete natural at interacting with children so young. At the beginning of the session, when my daughter had just turned 2, she had a lot of trouble focusing on her teacher and following instructions - which I learned is completely okay. Over time, her ability to focus improved and she would look forward to her ballet and tap class every weekend. Her favorite part was when Ms. Emily would give a sticker or glitter at the end of class. I loved watching how happy she was in class and how much she talked about it afterwards. Sadly, due to the COVID situation, the studio has been closed for the last two months and our routine has been disrupted. We're really hopeful that the situation improves in Los Angeles and we can find a way to have the class back in a safe way. We can't wait to be back! P.S. Funny story.. I was SO excited to put my (then) 2 year old in a mommy & me ballet class that I read the class instructions very carefully... the dress code was fairly specific (a certain color leotard, tights, ballet slippers etc). So I thought the moms were supposed to dress up just like their daughters. First class ever, I showed up in full leotard and tights to dance with my girl! After that, I realized the moms come in regular clothes so I was careful to dress appropriately from then on. Just a tip for other moms enrolling in the mommy & me class!

Beyond the amazing instruction, I was deeply touched to observe how inclusive and welcoming this studio is to people of all different abilities.

Highly recommended!

The small class sizes are great because I feel like each student gets more attention in class. The reason I've progressed so much is because of these amazing teachers.

Both studios are fantastic - they foster a love of dance for the students and have a way with being both firm but fun in all classes. The instructors are extremely talented, kind, and do a great job managing both the young dancers and the parents. There are so many places you can enroll young girls for dance in West LA, but I think CCAB is a true ballet school; focusing on fundamentals and helping students who are really passionate about dance to grow! Michelle especially is an incredible business owner - she knows all of the students, all of the parents, manages two studios with two recitals twice a year and is extremely organized for all paperwork, billing, schedules, which we know isn't always the case for kid's activities.

We were enrolled at the school of dance and music before the pandemic but then all classes were being taught online during the pandemic. Unfortunately that didn't work out for us. We saw Sophie dance's old location while we were driving down Wilshire and it was history from there. My daughter tried out for their team and was very excited to join their family. She said she didn't feel the time while she was there. She actually begged to stay longer. Sophie dance isn't just a dance studio but they are a family. The staff there is very personable. They are not afraid to tell you the truth. Their teams are amazing. My daughter learned so much being part of their team. Unfortunately, this year they required more hours which we couldn't commit to but they will always be our first family. If your looking for something for your little dancer then I would definitely recommend this studio.
