Donita Ballet School

My daughter and I have taken classes with Donita for two years. Donita is totally committed to Ballet. Students receive the individual attention they need to develop a strong technical foundation. Donita is passionate about the beauty and joy of performance, and stages a lovely theatre performance at the end of each dance year. As with any quality ballet school and teacher, Donita does not hesitate to be straight forward with her students in areas that need improvement, and expects the commitment to excellence from her students that she brings to the school.

I have danced with Donita for over 13 years and it has only given me a positive experience.
Donita Ballet School has taught from a young age to be a disciplined, dedicated and hard working person. Donita has not only taught me ballet and great posture, but life lessons that I have used and will use for the rest of my life. Thank you Donita

There is no other teacher like Donita. She is the most devoted and talented teachers I have ever had. She is relentless when it comes to perfecting technique and strives for excellence. Even though she is strict, which is what we need to succeed, she is so kind and loving. If you want to learn ballet the proper way, she is the best!!! I also recommend her for young kids who are starting. She knows how to connect with each and every one of them. All her students look up to her and love her!

I attended Donita Ballet School starting from age 2 and into my 30s.

Donita is a warm and devoted teacher who provides personal attention and one on one corrections like no other teacher I've met. She runs a wonderful school with talented and welcoming students who range in all abilities from recreational dancers to aspiring professionals. I’ve taken ballet classes across the city and Donita's are by far the most fun, challenging and satisfying . Go see her annual shows to see what I’m talking about! From her young dancers, adult dancers, and advanced-level dancers, you can see the high quality of technique and choreography that Donita prides herself on.

Don’t believe any of the negative reviews written about Donita or her school! It’s heartbreaking to see anyone talk badly about this woman who loves her school, her students and ballet more than anything!

I have been a student at Donita Ballet School for almost 14 years and it has been nothing but a positive experience. The class environment is very welcoming and Donita is hands down one of the most passionate and dedicated teachers I have ever had. Her personal experience and ballet skill make her critique constructive and she consistently sacrifices time and energy for the success of her students. I consider it a privilege to be able to call myself her student as she has not only taught me dance skills but has also fostered the importance of hard work and consistent dedication, which is applicable to academic and professional life as well. If you are looking for a place to learn to truly enjoy and appreciate the art of ballet, her school is the place to be!
