I have been attending Pierriot school of dance for 8 years and grew up with them and to me they feel like family. Claudia is and amazing teacher and doesn't go over the top with things. You or your child can dicided what level they want to be at if they want to have it as a hobby or compete. The concerts are so much fun as we all get a part and where costumes and have fun. I don't intend of ever leaving as it would be like saying good bye to your family. One great things about Claudia is she talks to the kids asks for their opinions and informs them on what is going on. But most of all it is just a really great dance school to go for ballet, tap or jazz!
