My daughter is enjoying tutu school! She also enjoys having Ms Madison as her teacher. She's fun and keeps the kids the engaged the entire time. read more

No complaints, for $105/month for 4 classes a month it's a good price point and make up classes are accessible. Hands down my daughter's favorite is Ms Jasmine. The instructors are never forceful esp when my daughter isn't in the mood to join (though she gets FOMO and decides to join within a few minutes). The instructors are patient with the kids even when there are multiple interruptions (my kid is the main culprit usually). One request I would make would be that masks were still a requirement. read more

By far the best experience for my baby girl she loves it and Ms Jasmine is an amazing instructor!! #TuTuSchoolUnionCity read more

Tutu School Union City - Dance Schools Near Me - Union City, California

My daughter have been going to Tutu School Union City for around 8 months now, and WE LOVE IT! The facility and the bathroom is always clean. We've been taught with a few teachers, Ms. Anna, Ms. Taylor, they're very greabut our favorite is gotta be Ms. Mandy! My husband (who have never even met her) told me that it feels like he knows Ms. Mandy personally because my daughter can't stop talking about her! She's very kind and bubbly, sometimes I wonder maybe if she's not teaching ballet here, she's probably a disney princess at Disneyland! :D She's also a good problem solver, because she can easily manage toddlers who are having meltdowns in class. We also had a chance to meet Ms. Niro, the director at the recital, and she's also very kind. I love how they're not only learning about ballet and dancing, but they're also learning letters, animals, etc, and other important things too like manners. I also appreciate them to make 2 recitals in a year for the children, so we can see our kids performing in a costume on a real stage. I got teary eyed watching my baby daughter performed for the first time. Thank you for the experience, Tutu School! read more

This review is for my experience in the trial class for my 20 month old I decided to put my daughter in this ballet class, the owner was super nice when scheduling our trial class which made me super excited to try it. I picked the Monday at 5:15 class which probably wasn't the best idea because my LO had to be waken up out of her nap so she was a little cranky. Upon arrival the studio was set up really nice, loved the decorations, it was too cute. I told the owner( Monday's she teaches class ) that we were here for the trial class and she asked my daughters name and that was it, I was expected to get an overview of the class and ask a few questions but once I saw her on her phone and a bit stand offish I figured I'll just go with the flow of the class. When class began the children sat in a circle and she had a lot of fun activities for them - My daughter was a little distracted and pretty much wanted to do her own thing like most toddlers and it was starting to distract other children. Now heres when I dropped a star, the teacher was more focused on getting through the task and activities so my daughter was ignored, she walked up to the teacher to interact in the activities with her and she moved her to the side and proceeded with her routines. I definitely didn't want her to take anytime away from other children but after reading reviews and seeing people say that the instructors at the chain of tutu schools are pretty good with keeping excited or distracted children engaged I guess I expected more. I'm thinking the class was too structured for my LO Towards the end the sleepiness from my daughters short nap started to take a toll so we had to leave early. I called the owner to see other options, maybe a morning class but have yet to receive a call back. The structure of the class probably wasn't a good fit for us but she had fun for the most part and it was so cute seeing all the little girls in their Tutu's read more

This is by far the worst and most unorganized ballet school we have attended. The owner/manager is basically saying she never received any calls but ive called several times to cancel. They are still charging even though my daughter has not attended class and giving me shit about their unorganized misdoings. Unbelievable. Do not send your child here. The classes itself are dirty with kids coughing and they do not clean the floors. The owner is saying there was no concerns about coughing yet theres sick kids going every friday during our ballet class. She is a liar read more

It can be great depending on who the teacher is. Ms. Mandy who my daughter started with was one of the best. At one point, my daughter had a teacher who spent what I believed an excessive time warming up.. at least 15 minutes. So it might not hurt to try out different time slots and teachers. Makeups are flexible, but not always available. I wish they had different membership options instead of only monthly (ie. 10 classes for a certain price). read more

We love the Tutu School so much!! The classes are about forty five minutes once a week. The facility is decorated beautifully and always looks very clean. Our daughter counts the days until she gets to see Teacher Jasmine! read more

We loved Tutu School! Our daughter was attending for half a year and she absolutely loved it. She started at 18 months up until she was 2. Unfortunately, we relocated to the East Coast. If you're looking for fantastic teachers, a fun learning environment, and affordability then this is the place for you and your child. Emmy enjoyed socializing with peers (younger and older). They did not expect your child to be perfect and made sure the class was more fun than "strict" especially for the toddler age. They had a great understanding of developmental skills and expectations of toddlers. We loved teacher Mandy and Rachel. They really built a great rapport with our daughter. Thank you Tutu School! read more

We had the BEST experience throwing a birthday party at Tutu School Union City for our five year old and 16 of her friends. Miss Niro was very communicative and helpful, and the party went off without a hitch, with absolutely no effort on my part. The school itself is adorable. It's colorful and cheerful and looked so darling with the added party decorations. The girls spent time with Miss Niro and two other beautiful ballerinas creating a craft project, dancing, and listening to a story. My daughter loved it and we have lots of pictures of the girls' laughing and smiling as they played. I'd highly recommend Tutu School Union City for all of your little girls' birthday party needs! read more

My daughters very first class ever and it was amazing! I am so happy I chose this school for her! Everyone here from other parents to teacher were all so sweet and supporting to one another! I absolutely reccomend Tutu School to anyone! The room is too cute and inspirational and makes me happy to see my little ones face full of life and dreams!! Thank you Tutu School for making this experience for my daughter THE BEST! read more

My 22 month old and I just came back from our first toddler ballet class. I was afraid she wouldn't do anything, considering she is so young, but i was wrong! They had many props to fully engage the toddlers (wands, ribbons, bubbles, etc.), and at the end, we enjoyed story time and coloring! I was shocked to see my daughter copying the teacher (to her best ability). I thought it was a great way to practice her developing motor skills and learn new ways to move her body. We loved our trial class so much, we signed up! read more

Tutu School Union City - Bubbles and wands for the toddler class (22 month enjoying the 18 month to 3 year old class)!!! - Dance Schools Near Me - Union City, California

My daughter loves Tutu School in Union City!! My daughter was first introduced by her cousin at the Redwood City location and we were thrilled to find out there was one in our neighborhood!!! All of the teachers are fantastic and super friendly. Miss Mandy (my daughters teacher) is amazing. I am convinced she was a Disney Princess prior to becoming a ballet teacher. She is so sweet and patient, I don't know how she does it. Miss Niro (the owner) is very nice as well. Super attentive to parents needs and typically responds to any email the same day! Would definitely recommend Tutu School to any parent. No pressure. All fun and imagination read more

This is my daughters first time in ballet. She loves it. Her instructor Ms. Rosie is so patient and good with kids. It has really helped build my daughters self confidence. read more

Started with a free class and now my daughter is a huge fan. Classes are relaxed, age appropriate, and adorable. Facility is very clean and accommodating- any questions were answered promptly via email. I would definitely recommend if you have kids who are interested in ballet read more

My daughter has been going here for the last 9 months and loves it. The owner Niroshika De Silva is very responsive and super sweet, and the teachers have all been great. The actual studio is very clean and cutely decorated. Since we have been in a shelter in place, the owner has went above and beyond offering virtual classes and video story times and craft activities. We did a virtual play date ballet party for my daughter and she and her friends had a wonderful time. I can't thank Niroshika and Mandy enough for making my daughter's birthday special during the shelter in place! read more

My daughter started taking ballet here when she was about 2 and now she's almost 4. The classes are age appropriate and most importantly fun! I have had a few instructors but we love Ms. Mandy. She is patient, engaging, and makes the class exciting. I recently had to change my daughters class but I made sure it was on a day Ms. Mandy taught. read more

Niro is an outstanding ballet teacher! Talented, patient, my daughter loved her class! The fact she could also pass as a Disney Princess has all the tiny dancers in awe :-) Don't hesitate to schedule a trial class but prepare to sign up after!! The ballet classes here will melt your heart! Literally tutu cute!! read more

Great school. Very kind and patient teachers and the owner is great. My daughter loved it. We had to stop because preschool started but she still does her routines and talks about her teacher all the time! read more

I Brought My 2 Year Old Child To The Trial Class About A Week Ago. We LOVED Everything It Had To Offer & Had Such A Blast, 5 Stars Is Very Accurate For This Location. We LOVED the instructor most of all! My Child Is A Tough Cookie & She Made It Such A Wonderful/Fun Experience For Her! Went In For The Free Class & Walked Out Thinking About Coming Back To This Location JUST FOR HER! Thank You Tutu School! read more

We were here for a trial lesson and really liked that it taught classical music ballet as well as some classic songs - beautiful tunes to be around (unlike Tiffany School which teaches "ballet" with ear-sore pop music as a background - Lady Gaga, etc....). Teacher Taylor chose spot-on tunes, was nice and even read a story in between teaching the moves! One thing I would like to see more of is to correct the moves of older children group (4-5 yr olds) instead of always saying "great job" even if the leg moves are totally out of line. Kids this age do take in instructions pretty well and could benefit immensely from telling how to do stuff properly. The instructors are more like artists/perhaps dancers themselves rather than teachers with teaching ballet methodological background hence probably the mismatch between the ":friendly/awesome fun" lesson plan vs the Russian style with more instruction provided, even for 4+ kids. My daughter loved the trial class though and asked to continue so I am signing her up shortly. Thanks for a pleasant experience! read more

My daughter has been going to Union City Tutu School for the past year. She is 4 years old. It is fantastic! We are in Ms. Mandy's class and Ms. Mandy is so wonderful! She is kind, gentle, enthusiastic, positive, and engaging. My daughter loves the class. It is not overly strict and there is a big emphasis on having fun and enjoying dance. But my daughter is still learning about ballet and practicing ballet steps. They practice little dances each time where the girls learn to dance together and each year there are two shows that they prepare for. There are also just a lot of fun dance games, bubble time, and they do story time each week where they read from a ballet story and dance to express parts of it. The music is classical music from various ballets or Disney music or other beautiful music that the kids love and that keeps them engaged. But the best part of the class is Ms. Mandy and how caring and kind and enthusiastic she is. I really recommend this class! read more
