The Austin Conservatory of the Arts has an outstanding ballet program designed for both fun and professional interests. The curriculum is based on the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) which gives the children an annual defined goal of being "graded" by a RAD examiner. The children love the idea of a professional dancer from another country watching and evaluating what they've learned over the past year. Even though the program sounds strict, the instructors make learning fun and exciting. My children always look forward to their classes and visiting with their instructors. The non-profit groups operating under the ACA umbrella welcomes all dance skill levels and has provided a natural extension for children to use their talents and provide delightful performances to Central Texas residents.

Pros: professional atmosphere

Cons: limited parking

The Austin Conservatory of the Arts is more than a studio that offers excellent instruction in ballet, jazz, tap, hip hop, musical theatre and modern dance. The ACA staff not only offers children of all ages an education in dance but the life-long skill of working together collaboratively in a creative setting. The students of ACA are exposed to the challenges and joys of performing on a live stage in front of a theatre audience. It is a well-planned performance that teaches the students the importance of being a member of an organization working toward a common goal. The students devote many hours to rehearsals and it is evidant by their expressions how much they enjoy dance. No matter what age or skill level a dancer is, they will find a dedicated staff member at ACA, friendly and dedicated to providing quality dance instruction.

Austin Conservatory of the Arts has a primary focus on ballet, but also offers very good jazz, tap, musical theater, and hip-hop classes. Our kids started there several years ago after having had several years at a ballet only studio out of state. Austin Conservatory of the Arts offer, through the Austin City Ballet that rehearses at the studio, the chance to be part of excellent productions of classical and fun works like the Austin Children's Nutcracker, La Bayadere, and Peter Pan. They also offer opportunities to be part of classical performance through the studio classes. People know each other at the studio and become friends. It's a great place for kids and adults who love dance.
