Both my daughters attend Jeanne's School of Dance.
This is an exceptional school that focuses on a number of dance forms but i think excells in ballet.
The teachers themselves are very gifted and bring an excellant array of talent to this school.
I would definitly recommend Jeanne's School of Dance to anyone who is seriously devoted to dancing, ballet, tap, clogging, jazz, etc.. Jeanne's School of Dance also has a Powerforce Dance Company and recently have danced at Disneyland. They will also be performing the Nutcracker at the Mesa Center for the Arts.
While I am thorougly impressed with the teaching skills and number of shows that Jeanne's dancers have danced in, I am a bit taken back at the cost for additional siblings to attend. The cost of 1 child attending this school is comparable to the cost of say placing your 1 child in a community dance class at the YMCA. But I would have hope that there would be additional savings if more than 1 child was attending. There is a $5 a month savings. The cost for 1 child (at least a 5 year old) to attend is $40 (about $10 a meeting, the same as it would be for her to take the class at the YMCA) but her sister's tuition is $35, a discount of $5. Jeanne's school of dance USED to have a larger discount but I think it was discontinued a year ago or so.
STILL this school ils a wonderful place to start networking for those seriously intersted in dance.
