In addition to the fun and excitement of ballet classes, let's talk about Parents' Night Out. Where else can your child go for pizza, crafts, Cinderella movie clips and ballet practice for two hours for just $15/child in 2026? Seriously! Can we talk about value here??? And they cap the attendance at about 8-10 children, so it is not chaotic and understaffed. Jenbert Jr 1 and Jenbert Jr 2 loved their Parents Night Out! read more

Teacher Shakeera is fantastic. We have thoroughly enjoyed the class for the past 2 months. Every class has structure, fun (props and bubbles), and our little one knows over 6 ballet moves at the top of her head. Highly recommend. read more

Start off with the very welcoming environment. We started her out about a year and a half ago she was quite shy and nervous, but teacher Charlie was very inviting and patient through the entire class. That definitely helped open up a bit. We love teacher Charlie, she has such a way with the little dancers, and she makes sure to take time with each one when they need a little extra help. She know knows quite a bit of ballet moves and does then through the house. The Bravo Bash recitals are amazingly beautiful. read more

Today was a tutu school class that will forever be etched in my memory and heart as it reminded me how important it is to be kind and inclusive and how even the simplest gestures can make a world of difference in someone's life. For some reason I had it mixed up in my calendar the week the dancers were invited to wear their Halloween costumes. I instructed my 4yo ballerina to wear her Halloween costume to class today. We even spent extra time making her hair as beautiful as Belle's from Beauty and the Beast. As we approached Tutu School and noticed her classmates weren't in costume, it was confirmed by the sign outside that we had gotten the weeks mixed up, as the sign said to wear their costumes next week (not this week). When my daughter realized she was the only one in costume, she became visibly upset and clung to me and started to almost cry. Her sweet teacher Ms. Charlie noticed and immediately came up with the best solution. She suggested the whole class wear costumes and immediately ran to the back and came back with a box full of costumes - which happened to be Disney Princess costumes (which to our pleasant surprise matched my daughter's costume) that fit the other girls perfectly! Seamlessly, the girls gravitated toward the box and excitedly picked out costumes to wear for class. As they each enthusiastically picked a costume and put them on, my daughter's face went from distress to relief and joy. She happily joined the class, and it was literally the best and most fun class ever, so much so that it ran over by 10 minutes, much to everyone's glee! Ms. Charlie even thanked my daughter for coming to class in costume. I will forever be grateful to Ms. Charlie for thinking so fast on her feet and coming up with this genius plan that elevated the whole class experience today and, most of all, made my daughter feel the opposite of what she may have otherwise felt. We all have at least one childhood story where we may have felt embarrassed or out of place, but I can safely say this is not one for my daughter. In fact, she will forever remember this day as the one where her kind-hearted teacher made her feel welcome, seen, and even made her feel like a leader! Thank you, Ms. Charlie! We are also so thankful for her sweet classmates. That was the best class ever! "They may forget what you said, but they will not forget how you made them feel." - Carl Buechner read more

Daughter loves Tutu School. She met many of her bestest friends there. Going to Tutu School definitely made her more social and confident!

Amazing experience here so far. We love teacher Charlie! Excited for more classes this year.

If I could give Tutu School 1000 stars I would! This place is so great, all of the teachers are exceptional and truly know how to teach little girls. They teach ballet in such a fun way. My daughter loves to come here. We love all the teachers, but my daughter's favorite teacher is Miss Charlie. She makes learning very fun and my daughter loves the french! Also, for any concerns or accommodations they are very kind and flexible. I appreciate that very much. I'm looking forward to seeing my daughter perform in Bravo Bash.

I have been bringing my 22 month old daughter to Tutu school for the past month. She has loved it from the second she walked in the door. Her teacher is Teacher Monique and she is so wonderful and delightful. It is so amazing to see how well my daughter listens and follows directions because of how engaging and calm Teacher Monique is! We were lucky enough to get a special when we signed up and have gotten unlimited classes our first month! We have gone 2-3 days a week every week and I know my daughter will be sad next week when we only get to go once. She always asks for, "my tutu school." At home she independently practices the things she's learning there! It is so cute to watch! We just signed up for the Bravo Bash and I cannot wait to see her in her first recital! Another thI appreciate about Tutu school is their flexibility in scheduling a make up class, and how user friendly their website is! read more

My daughter loves this place and she is always excited to go every weekend. The teacher is kind and encouraging.

Tutu School is great for kids. Having my daughter in the toddler class has boost her confidence and ability to socialize with kids outside her preschool. The teachers are professional and have a great amount of patience, which is essential when dealing with kids in this age group. The class schedule is also flexible, allowing us to do make up classes when needed. Additionally, staff is prompt and responsive with questions or concerns. Last week my daughter had her first recital on stage. The performance was well coordinated, organized and entertaining. I enjoyed watching the kids have a fun, memorable experience! Overall, the Tutu school has benefited our family in many ways. I look forward to watching my daughter explore more of her talents with the Tutu School. read more

My daughter has been attending Tutu School in Hercules since she was 3 years old. She loves to dance and the school's curriculum encourages the children while teaching them some foundational steps - and all made fun!

I can't say enough great things about her, we love her teaching style - she provides creative platforms for the dancers to get comfortable with performing to an audience, she's inclusive and you can tell she truly cares for her students. We love that this is in our city, thank you! read more

My daughter has been going to Tutu School for about a year now. She's improved a lot. Thanks to Ms Kirsten, who's very patient with the kids. Having your child do ballet at Tutu School will not only teach them how to do dance. It will also teach them the value of listening, following instructions and how to socialize. read more

I was a little hesitant about putting my 3yo in ballet so early... but the school was offering a free trial, and my daughter absolutely adored the movie LEAP on Netflix, so we tried it out. My daughter absolutely LOVED the class! She was smiling through the entire experience which made me smile watching her. My face is literally sore from smiling so much. The instructor, Kirsten, was an incredible and welcoming mentor, and the small class size really allowed for some personal attention. This was such a great experience, and my daughter is super excited to go back. So glad my wife found this place for her to try out. read more

Been bring my daughter for almost 1 yr and my daughter loves it. Teachers are amazing !! Definitely recommend!

Had to enroll my daughter here for ballet because this place is so darn cute. I knew of other tutu schools in the area and was happy to hear there is a tutu school in Hercules. So far my daughter has been coming for about a month in half and enjoys the class a lot. I have her in the 3-4yr age group. The teachers keep the kiddies engaged and Michelle the owner is super sweet. Tutu school also offers ballet cloths, shoes and tutu's for purchase. Such a fun environment for my lil one. Hope this place does very well. read more

Great classes! Patient teachers make sure every kid feels empowered and has fun. Highly recommend!

My daughter loves dancing here! The teachers make every class so fun, and I'm always impressed how they can keep a gaggle of 3-year-olds so focused! It's the right balance of teaching skills without being too serious - just creating a love of dance at an early age. It also teaches children how to follow instructions, socialize with kids their age and control of their body. The Christmas recital was so cute and at a beautiful theatre in San Francisco. It created a very special memory for our family. Thank you Tutu School! read more

Teacher Charlie is great! Keeps the girls engaged and professes them at an appropriate pace they can keep up with.

For the last 6months or so we have been bringing my daughter her for lessons once a week. She absolutely loves it and the kids she meets in class. The teacher is awesome and great with the kids. My daughter comes home learning something new. I highly recommend this studio. read more

From the outside it looks like a small studio, but once you are inside you get the feeling that you have entered a fairy tale with the vibrant colors and the tutus hanging on the walls like art paintings. The teacher is firm but nice and I love that parents get involved in the learning process like the teacher saying something like "kids learn by observing their parents actions" (don't quote me on it it was the first day of class for my bb so I was hesitant on what to expect, since my background is more on the sports side than the art of ballet) My daughter loves it and has been twirling non-stop in a fun and diversity environment. read more
