Best aspect

  • Extremely high quality instruction in a small-school environment
  • Small classes, focus on technique

Least liked about program

  • My dancer loved all of it!
  • Short half days; dancers grouped by age instead of ability

Suggested changes to program

  • Longer program days in July session

Culture of program

  • Warm and supportive
  • Very supportive and encouraging culture

Other comments

  • The instructors are top-notch teachers who were principal dancers at Atlanta Ballet for many years before founding TMBT. They give detailed feedback and corrections in a supportive, small environment. Great place for dancers to get individualized attention and work on technique details.
