My daughter went to Copeland for many years. This is the best dance school I could have ever taken…read moreher to. The teachers are professionals, they're educated, & they all have a passion that clearly resonates to all the students. They offer a wide range of classes for everyone, toddlers to grown ups. They also are very involved in the community and participate in many parades, and local outreaches; the main one being Disney World. If there is a setback, it would be the amount of money that could add up with tuition, dance uniforms, & props. Either way, this is the best dance school in Hampton Roads by far!

You can dance no matter how old, from 18 months up to 99 years! I believe with patience, determination and hard work each student has the potential to achieve far beyond his or her dreams. Through my teaching I will always do my best to pass on my love of the arts to the future generations.

I don't think 5 stars is enough for such a wonderful studio. Aside from high moral standards that…read morethey help me instill into my little one, they are kind, compassionate, and giving. The staff has never once been anything less than amazing, and my daughter has been coming for two years. The teachers are patient. The studio is well kept. It is all around the best choice in Chesapeake. If you are on the fence about where to send your little dancer, don't think twice about Academie De Ballet.

Now this is where you go if you want to do dance seriously! I used to take lessons here for about…read more11 years in ballet and hip hop. Now, my little nieces go here for ballet. I have gone to other places dance recitals where there is clearly a lack of quality compared to here. Lessons. Typically an hour long. They will place you in class according to your dance level. There are classes that range from 3 year olds to older adults to teach you an array from ballet, hip hop, jazz, lyrical, tap, acrobatics, and more. The instructors who teach have been doing this for years! As for the little ones, you'll be amazed at how much they learn. The instructors are quite good with kids and reward them with stickers for good behavior. Lessons are typically held during the school year, but they also offer summer workshops. Also, if you refer other people to attend the school, you will receive a discount! Pictures. Pictures are always professionally done around the beginning of spring or so. I typically got a package of individual and group photo. You can see past group photos once you walk in the building to see what kind of quality you'll be getting. Recital. Recitals are divided according to level: Petite, Intermediate, Junior, Senior. So far they have all been held at Willet Hall in Portsmouth. The opening performances for each recital level are usually done by the Senior company which goes to show what level you can achieve if you keep at it... quite inspirational. By the end of the year, you truly see quality that you pay for. Overall, if you have a kid that is serious about dance, this is the place to go!

On a scale of cotton candy to Brussels sprouts, SOUL Aerial serves up a tiramisu experience…read more SOUL Aerial is tucked away in the corner of a strip mall of shops. While their ceilings are not super high, aerialists are able to train a number of tricks and apparatus. Rigging felt safe, and I love the reception that I received as a visitor from the online exchange to my in-person arrival. I trained at an open gym, and I attended a Lyra II class that was taught by a sub. I appreciated that the class focused on drilling difficult tricks, and when I asked the teacher for a progression, she offered me one that was accessible to where I am training. Everyone in the class was so welcoming, and I enjoyed my visit immensely.

Kim and her team of teachers are awesome! My daughter loves it! They even have an adult class and mother/daughter dance in the recital! I am so glad that we decided to try this new studio. The waiting area is large and has windows to see into the dance studio to watch the dancers. The studio space is big too. The class lengths are longer than what I've seen at the other studio we go to which I like because you seem to get more for your money. We look forward to many years at this dance studio to come!

You know the saying, 'monkey see monkey do'? Well, our younger one wanted to do it too. So, we checked what was available for him since he is a bit younger. So because of age, they are in separate classes and can't do it together. No problem there as we figured it could help with their independence, and we even found classes that worked out better for them in the end. We like that parents are given the option to stay, but you don't have to. There is a window on the other side that you can watch your kiddo as they do their class. I really loved that as I could see how my kids went from shy and reserved to outgoing and excited. From what I saw, I wouldn't say either is doing 'gymnastics' lol, but they're having a really fun time, and that's enough for me. We'll continue to keep coming back as long as the kids want to.

They sanitize the studio after every session and take cleanliness serious by encouraging parents to not bring sick children. This location also hosts camps and other events throughout the year for the little ones, they are extra fee though. Members do get discounts on these extra classes though. They also run limited deals throughout the year such as sign a sibling up and get 25% off or 50% for a second class for current members. My only small gripe is I wish the younger kids classes such as the 2 year olds were a bit lower priced since they aren't really learning any skills, but more so just playing on the equipment.
