Here is what parents and students are saying about Ballet Westormeland Academy!

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Ballet Westmoreland!

Three of my four daughters are students at Ballet Westmoreland, and the littlest can't wait to start next fall.

Each of my girls has a different personality and a different reason for wanting to dance. I'm thrilled that everyone can be satisfied under one roof!

My 5-year-old just wants to skip and twirl in a pink tutu. Her class is just the right length, and her teacher makes it fun!

My 7-year-old has many interests, and she loves to try new things. The character class at Ballet Westmoreland is perfect for her. The low time commitment allows her to pursue other interests and she loves the exciting ethnic dances!

My 10-year old is serious about ballet and wants to pursue it as far her talent allows. I have every confidence in the thorough, yet loving and patient instruction she receives at Ballet Westmoreland.

Though she's serious about her studies, my 10-year-old wants her class to be fun. I'm always happy to see her come out of class smiling and laughing with her friends.

Ballet Westmoreland is a little girl's dream! The setting is beautiful, the music is lively, and the classes are child friendly!

Ballet Westmoreland Academy provides dancers of all ages the very best in ballet training. Their professional staff provides well-structured, challenging classes in an atmosphere of kindness and encouragement. It is a school where a student can learn not only to dance ballet, but also learn anatomy, music appreciation and stage presentation—while having fun!

Character can be described as a fun way to express yourself through dance. Students are taught steps and techniques from around the world. This lively form of dance is highlighted with swirling skirts, high-heeled shoes, ribbons, and tambourines!

My daughter has studied at Ballet Westmoreland Academy for nearly four years. Her instructors have all danced professionally with major companies and provide their students with a level of achievement and understanding of the art that is not found elsewhere. They are interested in the students' development both as dancers and as individuals. The students receive more personal attention and correction at Ballet Westmoreland than at other schools she has attended.

My daughter, at 13, has studied with and performed for the renowned Mr. Nicolas Petrov, an opportunity which is not normally available outside college.

I finally found what I was looking for—an artistic school of dance without the distractions of acrobatic tricks and gymnastics!!!!
