What Students Say

I have experienced the professionalism at IAD first hand. I have taken class with Melissa Palumbo and she runs her class full of fun, first and foremost. She challenges her students with new choreography that wants you coming back to perform at your greatest potential!! Lana, the Manager, is great and super helpful too! The Nutcracker and Annual Production are a wonderful culmination of the hardwork and camaraderie that goes along with dancing at IAD! I recommend!

— Carol Palumbo ★★★★★

we have had such a wonderful experience with the ballet classes and productions at IAD. My six-year-old absolutely loves it. The teachers are amazing, patient, and very well-versed at what they do. The staff is incredibly accommodating, and it is a very positive and supportive learning environment. I highly recommend them for anyone at any level of dance!

I love this place for the first time I came in. The professional teachers and friendly dancers make this place more like a family. I study in UCSC and I am glad to find Vicky—the ballet teacher in UCSC will only teach in this dance school outside campus. I am sure everyone can get comprehensive ballet training here~~

I had the pleasure of attending IAD's performance of Oz. What a great show. The choreography and music were so well put together. The costumes and set design coupled with a new twist on the story, I would have to say made this my favorite rendition. Thank you all for such an awesome show right here in Santa Cruz.
