From the reviews
Jason took over this business a year ago and he has turned it into a real professional dance academy. He educates the kids how make the dance internal by teaching life skills as well as dance skills. A great program!
BDA's focus on proper technique in a supportive and professional environment has given my daughter a place to discover who she is as an individual and as a dancer. BDA has opened doors to new opportunities for her that we wouldn't have previously imagined possible.
I’m so impressed by everything about this school - the director, the teachers, the receptionist, the facilities. 5 stars all around. Our daughters are thrilled to learn and grow here, and feel privileged to attend.

Your first ballet class at Burbank Dance 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.
