Our Programs

Rebecca H.

 My daughter had about 2 years of ballet experience before Ballet Kukan. Since being enrolled this March, her skill level has dramatically improved. My daughter's poise, confidence are noticeable and she is understanding the importance of stage entrance and music cues. She's been in two seperate recitals, but was never taught this. Ms. Noriko is an excellent instructor. She is dedicated, passionate, and loves teaching ballet. She is committed to her students. At Ballet Kukan, there is discipline coupled with fun exercises. My daughter LOVES her ballet school and so do I. Highly recommend this school to anyone who is serious about ballet.

Diana C.

Wonderful ballet studio. Strong foundational skills. Excellent attention to technique and girls also have fun. Annual recital ensures all girls get to perform on stage regardless of level. Also offers jazz and hip hop. Free parking in lot with supermarket and restaurants so you can do other things while girls practice.

Denise A.

Fantastic Ballet Studio. My daughter has been going here for 4 years and just loves it! Teachers have instilled Discipline, focus, dedication and confidence! Over the past 4 years her skills have sharpened, dances gracefully, and her body has been transforming into a prima ballerina. She can't wait to start pointe!
