When my daughter was ready to start her pointe training, I refused to take her anywhere else except Santa Clarita Balley Academy. And, she loved it. The training is Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) and they test each year. Eventually, if asked or they make it through audition, they can progress to Company. It is a wonderful opportunity for ballet training by some of the best in Santa Clarita. But it is for the purist. Ms. Corinne Glover is tough and doesn't let the students slide. You must be willing to commit to the time requirements for the particular RAD level, or you won't be able to test. However, if you're willing to commit the time, you won't be disappointed. In addition, each year there is the Nutcracker performance and a Spring/Summer performance where students dance at the Performing Arts Center at COC.
