Whether you or your child is starting off with proper ballet etiquette or trying to enter the professional realm we offer classes for all ages and levels.
No previous dancing training is needed. Learn classical ballet barre technique with focus on balance, coordination and flexibility. Karlyn also knew that she wanted to teach. Teaching came naturally to her because she always wanted to share her love for dance with the world. She began teaching ballet at the San Diego City Ballet in 2000.

Tiny tot creative movement is a 30-minute class for kids ages 1.5-3 years old. Tiny tots class uses movement and dancing to help the little ones learn coordination, balance, confidence, and rhythm. Classes include fun games and dances to songs they may know, stretches and some very simple dance technique.
Tonight's production of La Bayadere was a feast for the eyes. I'm am in awe of Karlyn, her instructors, and all the dancers who worked to put together this magnificent show. Kudos to each and every one of you. PHDA is a wonderful community to introduce your child to the world of ballet. Karlyn, the owner, is a wonderful role model for the children and she creates a very supportive environment for her dancers.

My daughter started in the Leaping Lizards class with Lorenzo. The class is very fun and engaging and Lorenzo's classes are well thought out. She has enjoyed them so much that she is now enrolled in preballet with Maddie. Park Hill Dance's teachers are all very positive and even at three I can see the confidence that has developed in my daughter when she dances.

We had a horrifying experience yesterday and don't plan on returning anytime soon. Where to even begin?! We were trying out the leaping lizards 2 class at 10am - the toddler class ran late by at least 20 minutes. The music was blaring and too loud for my *adult* ears, and the instructor (Lorenzo) was yelling directions over the music. To a class of 1 year olds. And then he got frustrated when these tiny toddlers didn't follow his exact directions. I couldn't believe how loud it was. E. (almost 3 and quite shy) was very intimidated by all the commotion, and told me several times that she didn't

Our daughter has been under the amazing instruction of Karlyn for over a year now. The discipline and skills she has gained in her time at Park Hill Dance academy are tremendous! The weekly practices always lead to a wonderful dance recital that our daughter is proud to perform in with confidence. We are grateful for such a wonderful dance studio near our neighborhood!

Karlyn and her team do a wonderful job teaching my daughter and the entire pre-ballet class. The dancers are excited to participate, eager to learn, and so very excited to celebrate each end of practice with "ballet words" and a sticker. This is our very first semester having our 4 year old take class and we are very pleased.
Our daughter asked to take ballet and she loves going every Saturday. When we asked her if she wanted to perform in the "Nutcracker" performance, she responded with, "Of course! We have been practicing all the moves to get ready." If you are looking for a wonderful studio

Our family loves Park Hill Dance Academy! The owner and instructors at the studio are so dedicated, professional, talented, and caring. Our daughter adores going to her classes and her dance ability continues to get better and better each month under the guidance of the teachers. We have seen remarkable progress in the 5 years our daughter has been at PHDA. The instructors not only pay attention to aesthetics, but ensure a strong focus on technique and quality.
