“This dance studio puts on beautiful performances for Chinese New Year and the Moon Festival.”

From the reviews

Best Chinese Dancing school in town. Staff are friendly. Teachers are professional. They have two public performances each year and drew large audience from the communities.

★★★★★ — Sam, Feb 2017

Most classes are taught in Chinese. The teachers treat their students like family, but also hold them to a high standard and help them to excel. There are some good modern and k-pop dance classes, but the traditional dance classes take the cake.

★★★★★ — Lorelei, Nov 2022

my daughter attends it since 3.5 years old. Teachers are nice and flexible. The tuition is low and they have adult dance class while the kids are dancing. They perform modern and classic dance twice every year at Mesa. A nice small dance school with folks from Chinese origin.

Your first ballet class at Arizona Art Academy

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.
