We have been with LDT/CSB for nine years now with three daughters and have loved being a part of…read morethis family. And that's really what it feels like. These kids love and support each other. I have been back stage for many, many performances over the years, and there is so much mutual respect and comraderie. It's beautiful to watch them working together, encouraging each other. We have always felt that the staff of LDT/CSB nailed the balance between letting kids be kids and setting expectations for them to develop as dancers. Our kids feel safe to push themselves and safe to fail here. It's been amazing to watch them grow in their love of dance. As a physician in the community, I have been more than impressed with how they have handled their operations during COVID. They quickly got classes up virtually this spring. When they were able to open this summer, they did so using guidelines that were even more strict than required. I felt totally safe sending my kids to dance there knowing the measures they were taking. Instead of taking the easy road and cancelling their 2020/2021 dance performance season, they went way outside the box and converted to fully filmed performances, including the full Nutcracker. The fact that they are willing to do all this shows how much they love their dancers and the arts and Longmont.

This is not a place I could recommend to other dance families, particularly, of teens. Laura, is a…read morewonderful, warm, kind instructor but unfortunately, she only teachers teens on Friday. The ballet and company instructor was shockingly rude, unkind and controlling. She called out dancers in front of their peers for wearing skin toned tights even though they had been told this was a perfectly acceptable and welcome practice. She forced a very clearly uncomfortable dancer to remove her skirt for ballet class, even though in the past skirts were apparently always ok. It would have been reasonable, if this was a new expectation, to tell the class that in the future, ballet without skirts would be the new expectation. There are a million reasons a young teenaged girl might not be prepared to remove her skirt for class without any warning. She also criticized my daughter's preference elastics on her pointe shoes. My daughter came out of class tearful after being embarrassed in front of her peers at a new school, in a new class. I went in to get clarification on what had taken place. The teacher was extremely defensive, terse and rude. When I asked about my daughter's pointe shoes she basically told me it didn't matter why they chose to wear the elastics. She didn't like it and wanted them to wear ribbons the way SHE wanted. My daughter has been en pointe for 3 years and knows what feels most supportive for her but this teacher did not care, nor did she even ask. We dropped the ballet class after this and also withdrew from company. In the 11 years we've been involved in dance we've rarely come across such a difficult and abrasive instructor. The second reason I would not recommend this school is the exorbitant cost. Most families are very mindful of the cost of dance, particularly with more than one dancer to support. The last reason I would caution others about Centennial is that our family went through a very drastic life change requiring us to possibly relocate to an area of the state that would simply be too far to make the drive. I had paid approx. $1600 dollars up front (a requirement) . We were only there for almost one month. When I learned about our predicament I asked for the tuition we hadn't used (2 months worth) to be refunded to us. They refused. I explained that it was a hardship to lose nearly $1000 for 2 months we didn't dance. No one returned my subsequent messages and we did not ever receive any of that money back. They claim it is their "policy". I have never come across this in 11 years of dance and moving to different states. Life happens! No one plans these things and we certainly didn't. It was upsetting to be treated so callously. There are many schools in the front range area... please do yourself a favor and pass on this one. Shiny brochures and head shots are not an indicator of a high quality program. Our experience has led us to caution other families who want a kind, supportive, inclusive environment, AND one that honors and respects how hard families work to provide their children with a dance education.

We had tix to the College of Music's Holiday Festival and what a joyous musical celebration it was. We had gone a few times decades ago and decided to skip it for a while. But now it's a truly inclusive holiday program with incredible student faculty talent and as well as modern technology for lighting, sound and visual screen displays. In the past it seemed a bland Christmas only music program. We had decent seats in Orchestra Right with a few short people like us and some no-shows in the row in front of us. Just lucky I guess as the place was packed and most of the shows completely sold out. The venue is beautiful and seats about 2000 in classic design and well maintained. No recordings or photos allowed during the program. There were hundreds of student in the instrumental groups as well as vocal choirs. There were two conductors splitting the performances, one a man and for us, the first time a woman conductor though she said this was her 8th year in the program. Both were excellent. The student groups too, had lots of talent, from the Jazz singers and instrumentalists to the various choir groups. The bassoon ensemble did a great performance of a collection of Nutcracker pieces backed up with choreographed videos of nutcracker drawings. There was a beautiful rendition of This Little Light of Mine by members of the University Choir with solos by a terrific tenor. There was also a reading of The Night Before Christmas and a little boy in the row in front of us fell asleep. We had left at the end before he woke up and realized it was not yet Christmas. There was a Klezmer group led by a clarinetist with untalented singers and dancers. There was also a West African Ensemble leading an uplifting piece of music with the University Choir and incredible lighting and special effects. The program ended with a traditional Handel's Messiah with audience participation for the Hallelujah Chorus. I am so glad we went and so proud of CU for having such a more matured and talented Holiday program than we had ever seen before.

Not only have I taken a couple of private vocal lessons from her but I have also received music business coaching from her, which proved to be tremendously helpful in gaining clarity as to what direction I needed to go with my music career! Her coaching was incredibly powerful, yet simple, with a lot of common sense advice. It took me to the next level with how I do business with my music! I've also gone to her workshops and have always felt empowered, clear, and more confident with my voice. I look forward to future workshops with Ariella and intend on continuing to learn more about the Ariella Approach.

From the girl who would have been to embarrassed to sing anything more than quietly at the campfire, today I have no qualms about being the soloist. Ariella is a part of that growth. Ariella is a fabulous cheerleader, a free spirit, a beautiful soul, who helped coach me to confidence.
