During the Xmas 2021 they stop practice for whole month and no makeup classes but all the families should paid that month and even not half payment. We should paid in full without service otherwise your daughter will be out and not counting till the show!! CS is rude and no information they have, just the manger and can’t catch her all the time! I believe if you care about your academy should train the whole staff and any payment should have a service, we’re not a bank provide money, we’re a family want to our kids the best.

A fantastic studio for all levels and ages! We have been with CVDA for over a decade and absolutely love this studio. The teachers are knowledgeable and educate and equip dancers with the fundamentals of dance. The price point is very reasonable compared to other studios in the area. When we started, my young performers loved knowing they were performing on the same stage as the Richmond Ballet, a priceless experience. The office team will work with you as best they can to help any situation. The dancers live the values and form a supportive family. I am excited to see in their new location all of the new adult offerings from adult modern to barre, plus all of the new space!

My daughter have been dancing at CVDA for over 9 years. We chose this studio based on the quality of the instructors and the range of classes they offer. We consider the teachers, the staff, the students and the parents, all family and couldn't be happier with the experience that we have had. The experiences my daughter has been able to have and the growth I've seen since she started could not have been possible without the phenomenal teachers.

My daughter has been dancing at CVDA for over 9 years and has grown in confidence and dance knowledge. The instructors are top notch, and the dance center feels like family. I highly recommend for anyone interested in dance- ballet, jazz, tap, pointe, hip hop- you name it!

We moved to the area 7 years ago and after interviewing at several studios we found out home at CVDA. Anne the studio owner is great to work with- she is kind, she cares for the students and has created a great program. The teaching staff is great- they meet students where they are and encourage growth. The prices for classes and costumes are lower than other studios in the area (we checked). You have the choice of standard dance classes, company and competition. My 15 year old daughter does all three and loves it. I also love the parents at the studio- they are supportive to each other and always willing to jump in and help. I can honestly say that we have been very happy at CVDA and would recommend it to anyone.
