My daughter has been a student at ADC for 12 years. She is 17. There is no better ballet education available in the KC area. I am a professional musician with an excellent understanding of what it takes to succeed in the Arts. The progress of the dancers at ADC is consistent and spectacular. They are well prepared to receive scholarships for summer intensive programs, as well as to dance after high school in college, or with professional companies. They can compete with *anyone* for these honors. Not just one or two excellent students a year are at this level. ADC works tirelessly to give every student the skill they need to succeed in dance. ADC is the training school for American Youth Ballet. Once a dancer is competent to dance with the Company, their performance opportunities, and the skills that come only with those performing opportunities, are unparalleled. By the time the dancers graduate, they have massive amounts of experience with performing difficult choreography and are ready to function on any stage. All of this excellence in training is accomplished by teachers who genuinely care about their students. The personality of the studio is disciplined but relaxed. It's a beautiful balance between the required focus and correction and nurture. The dancers are friendly and happy whilst working harder than anyone can imagine. The excellent leadership of the studio directors has led to great leadership from the more senior students. These kids are the best of the best and their dance education at ADC is a large part of the reason they are such fine people. If your child is very young and interested in dance, you could not possibly hope for them to be in a better, safer, more nurturing environment. They will learn a lot more than dance. They will learn about music and how to behave and channel all that wonderful energy they possess as little ones into something difficult but beautiful. They will do better in every aspect of their lives as a direct result of the learning they do at ADC. That is guaranteed. If you have an older child who is serious about dance, they need to be at ADC.

ADC is the best!! My daughter has been dancing at ADC for 2.5 years. She absolutely loves it. Her growth and development has been tremendous. She is challenged in a nurturing environment with high expectations. It is all about training and technique. They also have a youth ballet company which puts on exceptional productions to showcase all of their hard work. I highly recommend!!

FAQs

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
My advice to anyone seeking out a dance studio is to inquire about the syllabus for each class and level. A good dance studio will have a plan from a dancers first class until their graduation. The American Dance Center has a developed system of training dancers to make sure they get the most reward for the time and money spent on each class at each level.
