While Pilate, stretching, and weight training may be necessary for strengthen different weakness of individual dancers, the total hours of actual ballet classes are "MUST" for muscle memory and musicality for advanced technique. For the little ones, you may not distinguish many differences between other dance studios. However, starting around 8-10 years old, Santa Rosa Ballet is the best school to study classical ballet in Sonoma County as it is the basic for variety genres of dance. My daughter has been accepted to San Francisco Ballet School summer session for 2 years by in person auditions and Royal Ballet School (London) on waitlist. This assures me the excellence of Santa Rosa Ballet teaching curriculum.

She started with ballet at age 3, and is now almost 17. Year after year she pulled away from various other sports and programs and chose ballet. At age 3 your little one attends ballet once a week--it's a joy to see them dance, learning little by little. It fills your heart. Now at almost age 17, they're dancing five days a week. It's not just ballet. With classical ballet and the wonderful instruction of ballet, Ms. Stephanie has helped my daughter be the strong person she is today. Ballet teaches so much: memory, focus & concentration, quick thinking skills. Additionally it can be relaxing, fun, difficult, and when playing classical music it can also bring a positive and calming effect to the brain. All while releasing endorphins. Looking back, it's incredible to see not just the physical strength, but the emotional and mental strength it can bring your child. We love Ms. Stephanie, her teaching style, professionalism and love for the performing arts. You're not just choosing a school, you're choosing a partnership in helping your child grow. Santa Rosa Ballet is wonderful school.

I can't say enough about the positive and supportive environment the teachers create. They somehow balance the emotional, technical and creative sides of being a teacher of the arts. What stands out the most is that they don't just teach dance, they truly see the whole child. The teachers are incredibly thoughtful about each student's emotional development, confidence and creativity all while helping them develop technically as dancers. Sebastopol Ballet is so special. Their student's grow not only as dancers but as individuals; teaching them discipline, resilience, self awareness, perserverance, confidence and what it means to truly have a supporitve community of parents, students and teachers.

Unfortunately we walk away with a sense that children are not put first for their emotional and spiritual creative growth.

Kids come first when you are in that business. Sadly we ALLMhave walked away from dance in our younger years to a yelling instructor, one that makes you feel unworthy, and general lack of encouragement, fun, instructors that yell,children and mothers that are rude and entitled. It goes with the territory. No thanks. We walked away!

When completed, I picked it up. It was filthy underneath and there was lint IN the needle and surrounds. My friend paid for this service for me for a birthday present. I showed her the machine. She insisted I take it back. I showed people at The Legacy in Sebastopol that work on sewing machines. They told me to take it back. I took it back. The employee who took the machine back in viewed the goop and lint and said it should not look that way after servicing. Time went by, I picked up the machine and looked at it. Still filthy. So I said to the employee who was at the counter at that time, "The machine is still filthy. Are there any notes on the computer about it?" Nothing. So I said to her, "The machine has been "serviced" twice now, and it's still filthy. So my friend wasted almost $200 and I will still have to take it somewhere else to be serviced. Got it". And I left. Then I recieved a call from John basically telling me that is it MY fault the machine looks like that and that he never spends more than ONE hour on a customer's machine because, "I just wont' do that". Nice. Must be nice to make $150+ an hour for doing nothing..... Then he has the nerve to tell me "we need to part ways". So, to recap: I brought my machine in twice, he didn't do his job, and then got snippy with me about it. The ONLY person who has EVER serviced my machine has been Village Sewing. So if there is any goop on it, or whatever is on there/in there, it is whatever THEY put in/on/lubricated my machine with the previous two times I had it serviced there. John's arrogant, condescending attitude was/is such a turn off, under no circumstances would I EVER consider patronizing Village Sewing ever again. To try to blame ME for the mess HE made, and then get angry with ME when my friend insisted I bring it back is him deflecting from the fact he just didn't want to take the time to do his job properly. Future customers: Consider yourself warned!
