From the reviews

I have worked as an elementary teacher and an elite firefighting incident commander. There are these key items I've enjoyed at HDA for 2 years, now with two children: - A kean alertness by instructors to the children's emotional growth, safety and well being with specifically experienced insight.

★★★★★ — Mark, Sep 2017

We have been part of 4 dance schools in the greater Seattle area and Haven has been our best experience. The teachers have developmentally appropriate expectations and the classes are both fun and educational. Working towards a spring show is such a great experience and it’s done in such a low pressure way.

★★★★★ — Angela, Jun 2024

My daughters have danced here for 7 years now, and we couldn’t be happier. I have previously spent many years at other reputable schools, so I know the gem I found at Haven.

★★★★★ — Christina, Jun 2024

Bethany and her team are truly amazing! When the kids decided they were interested in dance, I knew we needed an institution that valued the profession of dance and performance art but also understood the importance of a fun and invigorating experience.

Your first ballet class at Haven 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.

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.
