Ms. Bree at Avalon has taught both my daughters since they were tiny. In their words…”She is kind and we love her choreography. She deserves 17 million stars or infinity stars!”

We’ve loved our experience at Avalon and we were thrilled when our daughter had Miss Bri again this year. Its such a supportive and positive environment and not at all pretentious. When asked, my daughter typed the following message about Miss Bri…. “I love Miss Bri because she gets me a stamp at the end of class and she is so nice and fun. We do fun stuff in ballet and tap class and she takes care of all of us in class. This is my second time having Miss Bri as a teacher and I was so happy it could be her again. I love Miss Bri💕😘🥰💗💖💞💓💝❤️” -B (age 6)

The Musical Theatre team at Avalon is amazing! My daughter has been singing Greatest Showman tunes so much that even I know most of the songs now! This summer production will be our second one learning from Ms. Joellen, who is such a blessing as well.

Daniel brings joy and professionalism to his teaching. As a senior citizen, who started studying music late in life, Daniel is very encouraging to me. I am glad that Daniel is my teacher.

Ms. Breann is amazing and so special for us. She has been one of Leia's dancing teachers since she first started. She has so much patience with the kids. Especially in the evening when the girls are very chatty. Keep doing a wonderful job !

We’ve had a great experience at Avalon. JD has been great for our very active 7yo. He offered to let us take videos each week so that we can all learn together at home. Highly recommend guitar lessons at Avalon.

Miss Jo-Ellen does such a phenomenal job encouraging and inviting even the youngest of thespians to be part of the theatre community! We have watched our daughter go from shy and timid up on the stage, to finding her confidence. She LOVES theatre with Miss Jo-Ellen and we are so grateful for all that she has done to help our daughter shine!

I am learning to play the Congas at Avalon Music Academy in Holland. My teacher Adam is incredible . Not only is he a very talented musician but he is a very talented teacher as well. At the age of 46 I am embarking on this new adventure of learning to play music . It is fun and exciting and engaging. It’s never too late to try something new ! Thank you Adam

My daughter has been dancing at this studio for five years, and it’s been such a wonderful experience. She’s grown so much in both skill and love for ballet. This year, she was lucky to have Miss Dee Dee again—we absolutely adore her! Her passion for dance and her genuine care for the girls made this year truly special (though every year has been great!). Miss Dee has a gift for making class both fun and challenging, and it shows in how much the dancers grow under her guidance.

Our daughter has been dancing at Avalon for the last 7 years… and she’s only 9! Miss Marie, Miss Gina, Miss Brianne, and Miss Jamie are absolutely wonderful. Each one has helped to instill a love of dance for our girl. She absolutely loves it and is always asking to learn more! We are so grateful for Avalon and all they offer to our community. They truly are making our world a better place!

Our family has been part of the Avalon family for 20 years. Two of my girls danced with the school since its inception. I can't say enough wonderful things about the staff, teachers and people we have met over the course of years. They have been more than a dance school, they are family. Even though my girls have graduated from high school, one still participates in the adult program. They have made life long friends. If you are looking for a dance, theater, or music school, this is the place to be.

Ms. Brianne is always smiling and is incredible at patiently and gently redirecting the energetic toddlers back to the class activity. The way she leads the ballet/acrobatic 3-4 year old class is such a fun and positive experience for the littles.

My daughter attends an acrobatic class with Miss Marie and a theater class with Miss Jo Ellen. Both of these classes have been amazing! My daughter has learned so much this year. Miss Marie works with students in a hands-on approach. She not only gives instructions and models, but then she comes beside her students to help them truly master skills. Miss Jo Ellen creates a fun atmosphere that foster imagination and allows kids to shine. She puts so much time and energy into performances and ensures every child has a part to shine.

Miss DeDe is just so wonderful with our little 2 year old in his very first experience at Avalon. She is so patient, so so fun and joyful. It’s easy for him to just engage because of how she runs her class and have a lovely time moving and learning. She is a natural teacher and has great control over her classroom. He looks forward to coming every Saturday morning and wants to dance in his classroom when he see’s it ,on drop off days for his big sissy’s dance days.

My daughter has been taking dance at Avalon for many years and loves it. Her teachers push her to grow in positive ways. She loves her amazing teachers, particularly Ms. Tori and Ms. Marie! We are so grateful for the special opportunity for her to study acrobatics at Avalon, which not every studio offers and the fantastic performance opportunities.

We also truly appreciate their music lessons! Our 9 year old son has been taking piano lessons there for two and a half years now and is growing so much. Mr. Jon’s gentle, encouraging, fun teaching style are so effective and I can’t imagine a better teacher for our son.

I highly recommend Avalon School of the Arts!

4 of my kids (both girls and boys) have taken dance & acrobatics and music classes at Avalon over the past two years. We absolutely LOVE their teacher Miss Bri! She is so patient and does great with kids who have high energy levels, quirky personalities, and sensory issues. I appreciate how the studio is focused on moving your body, personal growth & building confidence. All body types & abilities are welcome here. You won’t find young children in make up/inappropriate attire or travel competitions.

Our two daughters have been dancing at Avalon for two years now.

Our oldest has had Ms. Sophie for both years and absolutely ADORES her.

Our youngest has danced with both Ms. Bri and Ms. Gina, the classes have been amazing for her in helping her come out of her shell.

They’ve also enjoyed the end of year recitals (great organization!) and summer camps.

The office staff Ami, has excellent communication.

I can’t say enough good things about Avalon’s programming!

I dropped one of my head daughters off for her Modern Dance lesson, got gas and a car wash, stopped back to FB plus then took her home. Just to save my daughter some drive time. She did have a good use planned and I should have.
