Hathaway Academy of Ballet

Mar 2024

I took at Hathaway for a little under 4 years. Before taking lessons here, I had no idea what I was doing. I was 12 years old at the time and was severely behind. I loved ballet, though, and I wanted to catch up to my age level desperately. All my teachers (Kurt, Linda Brown, and Micki Saba primarily) took me in and worked hard on me. By the time I left, I was in the top modern class and company, and I was barely behind in ballet. I left to pursue musical theatre, and because of their training, I was cast in top dancing roles in many productions. No one could tell I had only taken dance for 4 years prior to entering college. All that to say, at Hathaway they are honest...read full review

After reading some of the other reviews I decided to 5 star this business because low ranking a business just because they don't meet some twisted sense of justice is completely wrong. Maybe even racist, but I can't say that because I can't read hearts or minds, just actions and words.

It is a decent ballet school. Never had any problem with the administration at all. They just do not have any minority representation at the school.....at all. It is really really important for minority kids to be able to see themselves in situations like this.....meaning they need to see people that look like them, even if it’s just a couple of people. I could tell that it was starting to affect my daughter so i took her out and found a more diverse ballet school for her to attend.
