From the reviews

ADWV is truly our second home! The incredibly caring owners, talented and dedicated teachers, and warmest front desk staff are like family and have guided us all through learning skills both on and off the dance floor. My girls and I have made lifelong friends through their experience being a part of Company.

★★★★★ — Lauren, Dec 2024

Our daughter has been dancing with ADWV for the past 4 years, and we are so thrilled with the community we have found here. In addition to the growth that we have seen in her dancing skills, the owners’ and staffs’ focus on character building was also a key driver for our commitment to this dance studio.

★★★★★ — Sarah, Dec 2024

Academy of Dance Westlake Village is an amazing place for dance! Not only are the teachers excellent but they care about each and every dancer. They are so unique and innovative and allow the kids to be individuals and express themselves. Every year I see major improvement in the kids dancing.

★★★★★ — Tracy, May 2015

My daughter has been with ADWV for 10 years now, and the directors, teachers and staff have treated my daughter like family. They have helped her to blossom as a dancer and also as a human.

Your first ballet class at Academy of Dance Westlake Village

Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Ballet is for every age and every body. If you're returning from an injury or have a health concern, mention it to the teacher before class so they can offer modifications.
