From the owner: Our mission is to provide excellent training to the new or accomplished dancer and to instill a…read morelove of dance to all who attend, so come dance with us! We strive to give the best instruction available. This includes making sure that each of our dancers is learning the technical aspect of dance. This also aids in injury protection. Students are encouraged to study more than one form of dance. Experience has proven that students taking two or more forms of dance progress at a much greater pace and maintain their interest longer. We offer pre-school ballet, ballet, pointe, lyrical/modern, jazz, hip-hop, tap, acrobatics, & classes ranging from beginners to intermediate. NGAD believes that dance is for everyone. We strive to make the art of dance accessible to everyone. Our goal is to create Happy Dancers and when they become Stars then we have all reached a Dream! Celebrating our 25th year in Suwanee, we provide for ages 18 months to 18 years. Visit our website for more information!

Update: 21 Jan 2017 My daughter is still at Morningstar…read moreDance Academy. She loves it, even though it is still crowded. We are even considering putting her in after school care to learn chinese and ballet. She really likes the classes and the teachers. Morningstar has instituted some rules to address the overcrowding. I up'd the star rating by one star because my daughter loves these classes so much and the teachers are excellent. Now, I just drop by daughter off and do errands so that I don't have to be in a crowded environment and it seems to work well. ---old review There are many more ballet schools around Johns Creek that are better looking than Morningstar Dance Academy. However, the teachers are very good. If you are serious about ballet and don't care about the facility and look of the place, you may want to give Morningstar Dance Academy a try. This school seems to be outgrowing its current facility. I think the owner will need to expand soon or create more classes in order to keep the class size down. Right now, my biggest issue is that the classes are so crowded. The state of the facility would be my second biggest gripe. I wish I could watch my daughter's class, but there is no room and there is no window aside from the tiny one on the door. There is also no room for the parents to wait since the adjacent class rooms get filled with chinese language classes. My daughter attends this school with her friends, but I don't know how much longer I will keep her here mostly due to the overcrowding. Pros: Teachers are very good You will see results quickly and learn fast Teacher is strict Teachers speak english Morningstar also has a Chinese Language School Cons: Classes are crowded Facility is small and getting run down Teacher is strict Everyone else speaks chinese Morningstar's Chinese Language School is very rigorous even for native speakers

My daughter was at another well known dance school for about 5 year, before we decided to change…read moreschools. At first she didn't want to leave her previous school (but i wasn't happy with the lack of growth) so we spent several months trying different schools in the area, as transition is hard. After taking just one class at Morning Star, she said "mom that was the hardest class I've ever taken, I want him (Mr Chen) to train me". We have been there for a little over a year now, and I have seen so much development from her. What she loved is that she gets detailed instructions on what she needed to work on, exercise and stretches that would help develop, the under develop parts of her body, something she wasn't getting at any of the previous schools. She also loved the level of discipline, she felt that all the dancers took the craft seriously. I as a working mom love the flexibility of the school, Instructors allow students to come in and do additional work outside of class time. This along with training alongside girls above her level is something that has aided in my daughter's development. Although smaller than most "fancier" schools in the area and the school we came from, after spending time at just about all of them. I have to say, Morning Star has the best ballet training of all the schools in the area. I would recommend this school to any SERIOUS dancer, because it is intense.

She hated ballet but really enjoys it here which is a shocker. One of the instructors insisted she did ballet if she was going to take that particular class. My daughter tried ballet here. I literally had to pick up my jaw off the floor when she came out with a gigantic smile and told me she loved it and wanted to join. They also have lots of adult dance classes such as ballet, jazz, and hip hop. I have not tried any of these classes but I want to.

Payments and business matters are handled very carefully as well and privately you can even set up a private meeting to address any matters. I love the use of an open door policy.

Danielle has her teaching style down to a "T" because every recital I've been too has little musicians who truly enjoy playing and don't see it as chore.

Studio is part of a historic building in downtown Gainesville and renders itself to a more cozy feeling which is not intimidating for the beginner and warm and inviting for the more experienced.

The teachers are well trained and very personable and nice. I'd also like to comment about the last review. The recital was not at all tacky, it was very nice, especially for the money charged to put it on. Each dancer received two-three free tickets and any additional tickets were only five dollars. And have you ever tried to teach a 3 YO a 2.5 minute dance? Of course the teacher had to lead the kids on stage. Did this parent expect their child to be ready for the New York City Ballet? I've spent a significant amount of time there and would be extremely surprised if anyone was treated without kindness and respect. I would highly recommend this studio for anyone wanting to take dance or performing arts classes in a professional yet welcoming and nurturing environment.

My 3 year old had fun, but she did not realize that her class was consistently starting late and ending early, their recital, which started 15 minutes late, was so tacky we were embarrassed to have invited our family and friends, and they essentially played follow the leader with their teacher for 2 minutes and 15 seconds. They took measurements and photos during class time that we paid for, which is a conflict of interests at best and a disservice to my child who came ready to dance and ended up sitting by the wall for an hour, only to find that the pictures were of such poor quality that we will how have to take our own time and additional money to have them re-made. When you go into dance with your child, you have to expect that it will be expensive, but this place is a money pit and you definitely do not get what you pay for.
