From the reviews
It has everything that can turn u into a better dancer whether its hip hop or ballet...as long as ur willing to learn
The Academy of Music and Art has provided an exceptional experience for our son in both guitar and piano! Mr. Chris and his entire staff are not only talented and professional, but provide a wonderful, positive learning environment for students of all skill levels.
My daughter started taking guitar lessons at the academy a few years ago. The instructors have encouraged her creativity and love for music and the arts and it’s clear they love what they do. Through her guitar and dance training there she’s developed confidence not just in her musicality, but in herself as well.
Top notch staff all around. Feels like they genuinely enjoying teaching music and have created an extremely welcoming environment. Very happy with the results after 6 months of going there and can't recommend enough for beginners and advanced musicians.
Your first ballet class at Academy of Music and Art, Inc.
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.
