Bri was great! She choreographed our first dance over 4 sessions and made it easy to learn. Definitely recommend!

Bri is an amazing teacher and owner. She makes going to class fun. I was very scared to join ballet as an adult and for the first time, and I am glad I chose to go here to BA. All the staff, and the fellow students are very friendly and welcoming. The workout classes too are very challenging and fulfilling. I would recommend this place in a heart beat to anyone looking for a place to workout or to dance.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE BA Studios!! This is the best studio for both kids and adults to dance ballet/jazz/hip hop/contemporary/pom and more! Many classes come with an opportunity to perform. Bri, the owner, is extremely helpful and responds to all questions about the studio. The community here is extremely non-judgemental and friendly. Also classes are very affordable! I love my classes here at BA!

Bri has been absolutely amazing while teaching my daughter the basics of ballet while also meeting her at her level. She keeps class fun and engaging but ensures the kids understand how to behave and stay in order.
Truly love the BA studio team and my daughter enjoys every class with miss Bri ♥️

This is the most amazing studio in Arizona! Bre is amazing, patient, and imaginative when it comes to teaching her students or putting together one of her amazing productions. Mandy is a wonderful teacher, who has amazing dance skills as well as being an amazing performer. All the students are wonderful and very helpful with the younger students. This is the premiere studio in Southern Arizona for all types of classes as well. Jazz, Ballet, Barre, Yoga, Hip-Hop and yes even special events for couples and holidays. I wouldnt want my child going anywhere else!

My now husband and I signed up for dance lessons before our wedding. We are both very not confident dancers, and yet the experience was fun and extremely helpful! Bri came up with beautiful choreography for us and had us completely confident in it before our big day.
My husband and I both also happen to be blind, and she was able to confidently adapt choreography for us that both looked great and was totally chill for us to pull off! Bri is an incredible dance instructor and everyone would benefit from classes with her! She is also, just a wonderful person in general! Get lessons from Bri, the value of her instruction is worth far, far more than she charges! Great value, fun experience, learn a new skill!

I can't say enough about how wonderful BA Studios has been for our daughter Kathy. She absolutely loves her ballet and hip hop classes—each session is a highlight of her week. The instructors are incredibly talented and passionate, creating an environment where kids not only learn but truly enjoy dancing.
The recitals are the icing on the cake. They are consistently top-notch, showcasing the hard work and dedication of the students with impressive choreography and flawless execution. Seeing Kathy perform on stage with such confidence and joy is always a proud moment for our family.
If you're looking for a dance studio that offers excellent instruction and memorable recitals, BA Studios is the place to be. Kathy's enthusiasm for dance has only grown since joining, and we're thrilled with the positive experience she's had.

Signing up for Adult Ballet classes has been one of the best decisions I’ve made this year! Everyone at the studio is so welcoming and kind. Bri and Mandy have great knowledge for all levels of dance and make each class very fun! The recitals are so creative and beautiful and they make every moment of the experience incredible! BA makes ballerina dreams come true <3

I felt so welcome from the very first time I attended class. Bri is a great instructor, always giving you options depending on your comfortable level. She doesn't only teach, she monitors your progress and encourages you push harder. I love coming to class, I leave feeling accomplished, stronger and ready to conquer.

I went looking for exercise and I found my soul instead. I forgot how much I loved dancing and Bri has created such a supportive, wonderful environment.
We range in experience from "this was my life" to "I'm pursuing my childhood dream to learn ballet" and it's been such a positive journey. Love the people in our classes. I look forward to seeing them every week. It's completely optional, but performing on stage was amazing too.
Plus, I'm getting the exercise I was looking for. The subtle changes after not exercising for so long have been magical. Being able to stand on tip toes to reach things without a struggle, standing up from the couch without making "hooooofff" sounds, and a thousand other things I've noticed. So grateful for BA Studios.

Our first dance was absolutely magical, and we have Bri to thank for that. She is an incredible teacher who gave us the confidence to perform with ease. As an amateur ballroom dancer, I was eager for a choreographed dance, but my husband had minimal dance experience. Bri created a stunning routine for us, complete with lifts, dips, turns, and spins. She masterfully broke down the more complex moves, making them accessible for both of us to understand and execute.
Beyond her expertise, what made the experience truly special was the quality time my husband and I spent together during our lessons. In the midst of all the wedding chaos, those hours of one-on-one time became a cherished opportunity to reconnect. We highly recommend Bri for anyone looking to make their first dance unforgettable.

Best thing I’ve ever done for my health and happiness. BA Studios has brought so much joy and amazing people into my life. The classes are great and so welcoming but the people are even better!!! Great instructors and fast friends in other students. Everyone is sooo supportive whether you’ve been dancing your whole life or never danced a day there’s a place for you here. Bri, her studio, staff and students gave me a place to love dance again and for that I am forever grateful 🩰👯♀️🩷

BA studios has released an original dance production every 6 months for the last year and a half that my child has been taking classes here. Every one has been a gem for us but the latest, after midnight, was just a cherry on top. I brought my family to cheer on my kid but they left feeling like we went to a show downtown. They all saw how much better the kids have gotten over the last six months and how fun to watch it was. I suppose Bri and the staff should have gotten this review from me a while ago just based on how much my kid likes going here but last night reminded my whole family how special this place is. If you have a child or adult even, who wants to have fun dancing while learning from the best in the west, I fully recommend BA studios.

BA Studios is amazing. I’ve been to many dance studios throughout my life and my children’s life and this one stands out the most. This is the first studio that actually teaches a true dance performing art; a story, stage sets, expression through dance. Bri (the owner and director) incorporates all of her students (including her adult ballet class) in the show allowing everyone to truly express our love of dancing. I see how the children love and adore Bri and she’s amazing with the kids. Couldn’t ask for a better teacher, owner, director and person.

Last night my daughter and I attended the premiere performance of The Nutcracker Returns, produced by BA Studios. A friend of hers was in the performance, and asked if she would attend. The tickets were $25 each, which I initially thought was a bit much for a kid's performance- but in the end, was money well spent. It was held at Flowing Wells High School, which has a wonderful theater set up. And though the parking situation was a touch confusing, we easily found the theater. There was a long concession table, with water & cookies, nutcrackers, and flowers for sale. Finding a seat was simple and the show started with a lovely introduction to the production company, the reasons behind the reimagining of the performance - as well as an explanation that 80% of the dancers had never been in a production before. It was a 2 hour show with a 15 minute intermission. The costumes were very well done, as was the choreography. The smallest in the bunch were of course, adorable - and the older students presented as well rehearsed and serious about their parts. All in all it was an enjoyable evening, and the kids all did a wonderful job. Hopefully we will see more performances from BA Studios in the future!

My daughters and my son just started taking dance lessons with Bri. They all LOVE it! I am pleased and impressed with the instruction they are getting. As a dancer myself and having tried almost every dance studio in town looking for the right one, I will tell you, this is it! The perfect balance of quality instruction, fun, and instilling healthy habits and mind sets in my kids. Bri is clearly gifted with children; they can't help but have a good time with her while also learning the fundamentals of dance.
