What Parents Say
“The entire experience exceeded our expectations.”
When my daughter asked to attend a summer intensive, we began researching countless options. We wanted a faith-based environment where she could grow technically and have fun building new friendships. Ballet 5:8 immediately stood out.
As a mom, I was nervous—she had never been away from home for more than a few days. But from the very beginning, Jeremy took time to personally answer all my questions and made me feel completely reassured.
Everything ran so smoothly. Communication around airport drop-off and pick-up was clear and timely. My daughter loved her dorm and roommates, and she raved about the food—especially the breakfasts and lunches! The Resident Assistants were fun, energetic, and the Chicago outings were a dream come true.
Most importantly, she felt genuinely seen and valued by the instructors. She received the corrections she needed in a warm, supportive environment. When she experienced a minor ankle sprain, staff responded immediately, contacted me right away, and had a treatment plan already in place.
She hasn’t stopped talking about returning next year—for all five weeks! Now that we’ve experienced Ballet 5:8, I have no hesitation about sending her again. I know she’ll be safe, encouraged, and growing in her God-given calling as a dancer.
