Trusted by 1 placeTPAD is an amazing place because they are more than just a place to dance, they are a family. All the teachers treat the kids like they are their own and everyone is very positive. There are many opportunities to get involved, and the kids are extremely close as they spend a lot of time together!! Turning Pointe helps kids find their passion and express themselves.
My 13 year old daughter started dancing at Turning Pointe Academy of Dance (TPAD) when she was 3. We chose TPAD after researching and trying some other summer dance camps. I felt that TPAD was the best choice because it is a non-competitive environment, the full-time instructors have dance degrees therefore are teaching proper form and technique, and most importantly for our family is the fact that they want little girls to look like little girls. The costumes, performance make-up and choreography are all age-appropriate at TPAD, which is not the case at many other studios. We also love the variety of classes and performance opportunities that TPAD provides, including a wonderful production of The Nutcracker! My daughter has made wonderful friends and grown so much in the nurturing atmosphere at this studio. Highly recommend!
TPAD is so much more than a pre-professional dance studio. The instructors are dedicated to assisting dancers to become the best version of themselves on and off the stage. Whether your dancer wants to explore the art of movement for fun or has dreams of being on Broadway, TPAD has the expertise and resources to help your dancer achieve his or her goals! We are so grateful to be a part of this wonderful dance studio!
I love that the students get high quality dance instruction from littles to high school students and the recitals and production pieces are excellent.. My daughter has some very close friendships and knows that her instructors care about her and help her be her grow and progress at her pace and ability! I had searched for a studio that did not have competitive dance but focused on technique and the artistry of dance and Turning Pointe is just that! I also love as a parent that the dress code and all recital costumes are modest and age appropriate. We are starting our 7th year and plan on staying with the studio till my daughter graduates. 5 stars all around! Thanks Turning Pointe!
My daughter danced with TPAD FOR 15 years! Graduating was bittersweet. I can’t even begin to tell how much dance helped her to become disciplined, graceful, smart and have dance as her very special lifelong meaningful experience. It also kept her out of trouble! Dianna, Gwen and Jennifer are her role models for life. TPAD is her family
We LOVE Turning Pointe! This isn’t a competitive dance studio, which we love. The girls create such strong bonds with one another. My mama heart is so full when my oldest talks about the “older” girls helping her, and they’re just such good role models for her. Dianna has created a studio with so many opportunities for children to find their niche. There are even summer camps to keep kiddos active or to try out new dance styles without committing to them for a full season, which is especially important for indecisive little ones. We love TPAD, and joining 2 years ago was the best decision!
