| - I bring my two daughters, 11 and 13, to Soulfire Studios for their ABT Ballet Program and Youth Dance Classes. I love Soulfire for many reasons. The teachers are very knowledgeable, expert dancers themselves, and teach the kids great technique while treating them with care and kindness. I love watching them make corrections and actually teach them to be better dancers. The studio staff is professional and kind, and always helpful and available to answer questions. I really like the ABT curriculum itself because it provides classical ballet training, but is mindful of the child's physical development to prevent injury. Strength is developed every class session, and appropriate strength is in place prior to teaching new combinations that require that strength. The teachers love dance and love teaching dance. They will spend extra time with the students when they have questions and need some individual direction. When it was time for pointe shoes for my older daughter, the ballet teachers accompanied her to the dance store to help her find the proper shoe and proper fit - what a feeling of support that was for me since I don't know the first thing about pointe shoes! Lastly, the end-of-the-year recitals are amazing. They are exceptionally professional, and give the kids authentic performance experience while showing off their ability to parents and supporters. If you are looking for a dance studio for your kids, give Soulfire a try! We have been very happy here.
