High level of training is available for adults of all levels: for those who are staying in shape for dance careers, and those who are using dance as an emotional outlet between workdays.
Our Mommy and Me class is one that will leave you with memories to cherish forever with your little one. It will work on strengthening the bond between you and your child through the stimulation of dance, where your little one will learn to dance and play with the comfort of having you by their side.
We offer classes for students as young as 2 1/2. Class levels are based on age, ability, and the dancer's maturity. Placement in class levels is at the teacher's discretion. Please contact one of our teachers to discuss your child's experience and skill level, and we will direct you to the classes that will be most appropriate.
Our ballet students are assessed annually and they perform before an audience of parents and friends. It is not a competition and a specially selected Judge will evaluate the dancers, and award medals and certificates to each student. The Awards typically take place during the latter part of February.

An amazing dance school full of diversity and talent. Zara really nurtures and gets the best out of her students. Amazing opportunities from performance to competitions. I couldn’t recommend this academy enough. A definite must if you want to invest in your child’s confidence and growth within performance.

I've tried several other studios in the area and Academy of Dance is by far the best. The teachers there get to know the students and families, allowing them to personalize every lesson to build on their strengths. After four months at one of the "other" studios, I barely felt like they knew my child's name, but at Academy of Dance we felt like family after the first class. The teachers are warm, knowledgeable, friendly, and just amazingly wonderful.

My daughter has taken classes here (mostly ballet) for about 8 years. The teachers are skilled and dedicated and the atmosphere of the studio is friendly. The end-of-year shows are much more imaginative and better put-together than those of other dance schools I've seen. They do a phenomenal Nutcracker at Plummer Auditorium in Fullerton (not every year tho). Great place!

My daughter has begun her 5th year of dancing with AOD and it's the only studio she has danced at. We are both happy with the instructors and the instruction she has received - she is truly in love with dancing and admires the talent and skill of the older girls and aspires to someday dance as they do. I strongly believe the instruction and dedication of the staff will help her in achieving her goals.
