This is my daughter's 7th season with Golden State Ballet and we have loved all of our time at Golden State! Raul and Cindy are wonderful and their doors are always open for any questions or concerns a parent may have. They have a dedicated staff and team for the students. We love the performances and seeing all that our daughter is learning. They truly care about each and every student and if they have concerns they are quick to address them with the parents. My daughter spends over 13 hours a week at the studio and I know she is in great hands while she is there. We love being a part of the Golden State family!

My daughter has been attending Golden State Ballet Academy for almost a year. The group lessons are high-quality, and all teachers are very professional and encouraging. My daughter feels seen and supported at each class. She especially likes Mr. Raul’s teaching style and his lessons on various ballet turns. She enjoyed dancing on stage with her peers during her first Nutcracker season. She also cherished the time spent learning from the company's professional dancers, as she danced with them on stage. Thanks to Golden State for providing such fantastic opportunities to its students!

We’ve had such a great experience with Golden State Ballet Academy over the past nearly four years. My daughter is almost 8, and it’s been amazing to see how much she’s grown as a dancer and in her confidence. Performing in The Nutcracker—a truly professional production—at the San Diego Civic Theatre has been such a special moment for her each time she’s participated. The teachers, owners and staff are incredibly hardworking and hands-on, and it really shows in the experience they create for the dancers.
