Arias to the Pointe

"I was so happy to find an adult ballet class! Some studios can be iffy, but I was pleased to find Aria focused on real technique. It feels so good to be taking ballet taught by a well-trained dancer (who is also very sweet and approachable)! The studio itself is clean and up-kept, too. Highly recommend this studio!"

"I enjoy going to the adult stretch and adult ballet classes at Aria's so much! She manages to make the classes accessible and yet challenging for all students regardless of their dance background. I think I have been enjoying classes with Aria for 8 years now! Wow! Ballet has helped my balance, flexibility and core strength. My daughter took classes throughout junior high and high school with her as well. Aria and the other instructors are great!!"

"I am an adult ballet student of 4 years. The studio is professional with a no pressure, at your own pace, practice for adults who love the art. The studio is clean, safe and modern. Aria is the owner and welcomes all ages to practice at her studio. She is a patient highly experienced teacher with focus on safely practicing dance techniques. She offers great examples during class with her beautiful technique and training cues. She has a supportive very friendly staff and teachers, that are always happy to help with any questions, suggestions or issues. There are many competitive performing options for the young ones and Aria produces, her own shows twice a year."

"My daughter has been attending ATTP for several years. Her technique and performance skills have definitely improved during this time. Miss Aria has helped her prepare for several out of state summer intensives and choreographed some wonderful solos for her to compete with. I would highly recommend this studio for students seeking solid ballet training that will take them into college and beyond."

"My daughter attended Creative Movement in 2018, gained some grace and discipline, took a break in 2019, and wanted to resume ballet lessons. In the midst of a pandemic, I was really glad to see Zoom classes offered and signed up with really low expectations; I was just hoping to find my daughter an outlet for her energy. Ms. Aria and Ms. Christine remembered us even though we were gone for a while and my daughter was quickly put into the right class level. 4 days later, we received the Zoom invitation for her first class. Ms. Aria offers the Pre-Ballet 1 & 2 class to on-site in an outdoors setting (plenty of water breaks) and Zoom students, and I am impressed at her effort and attention to both on-site and her Zoom students as they are, after all, young children. After the first class on a tablet, our family experimented with our zoom learning space and eventually settled on projecting to the wall-mounted TV with a blue tape on the carpet to keep our kid in camera view, so Ms. Aria can monitor my daughter's progress more easily. By the end of second class, my daughter has revisited the old ballet positions and learned new ones, all from the comfort of our living room (aka zoom learning space). I am really glad we signed up for Zoom ballet classes. My daughter was so excited for her second class this week she was all dressed and ready to go an hour before class. Many thanks to Ms. Aria for making this possible."
