Tutu School Berkeley — Attraction in Berkeley

Our daughter loves Tutu School! She started in the toddler class at 2 years old, and we have been amazed to see her progression through various class levels over the last three years. The class structure is the perfect mix of fun and age-appropriate instruction in a low stress environment. The teachers all do a great job engaging each child and making them feel special. Our daughter especially adores Miss Cora for her enthusiasm and technical teaching skill.

In addition to the weekly classes, we have also participated in the semiannual Bravo Bash recitals, which brought our daughter's ballet enthusiasm to the next level. At first, we were nervous our daughter would find the recital to be overwhelming, intimidating, or scary, but we were surprised what a positive, joyous, low stress experience it was. The teachers do a great job preparing the dancers and emphasize that everyone should just do their best and have fun. Our daughter has loved all the Bravo Bash themes we've had so far (unicorn, Frozen-esque, and mermaid). The beautiful costumes really make our daughter feel like she's part of a fancy ballet!

The bi-annual recitals are the best - they are very organized and make it a fun experience for the kids and families. She stayed from 3.5 - 5.5 years old and we are so glad she had this experience. Now she's moving on to a more advanced ballet school and was able to build the technique and...

My daughter has been attending Tutu School for over a year now, and it has been such a joyful experience for our family. She’s 2 and a half, and every class has been a wonderful combination of creativity, movement, and fun.

The teachers are kind, patient, and truly make the kids feel special—encouraging them to express themselves in their own little ways. Watching my daughter’s confidence grow, especially during her first “Bravo Bash” performance, was such a proud moment for us.

Beyond the dance moves and the adorable tutus, Tutu School has created memories we’ll always cherish. It’s more than just an activity; it’s a magical space for kids to explore, learn, and thrive....
