What families say

“This school is a treasure. The teachers are all so kind and make their lessons fun and interesting. My 3 kids look forward every week to coming here. I don't know if there is any other place like this in town.” — David F.

“This is our second year at CAD and my girls love Ms. Madeleine and Mr. Trevor. Not only are the classes full of instruction, but it is a true workout. The recital last year was great too!” — Amanda H.

“You can measure the quality of a dance place by the smiles on the dancer's faces and the display of talent at the end-of-year recital…that's exactly why Coronado Academy of Dance gets a 5-star.” — Janet D.
