We offer the best training and assure you that we will meet your highest expectations. All of the faculty has had a professional career and are highly qualified, certified instructors. At Academy of Arts we take your child s education serious, and even at the Preschool level your child will be taught by professionals only. Academy of Arts founder and director, Rebeca Russo-Columna, will be greatly involved in the enhancement and development of each and every dancer and will work closely with you. Our school is unique in providing your child with a complete arts education. The faculty recognizes that not all students will pursue a professional career in dance, theatre, or arts; however the discipline, understanding, and appreciation of the arts are qualities they will carry with them all through their lives. Our focus is on giving our students excellent training and not on the quantity of students enrolled at the school. We do not have a minimum ticket purchase; we have no competit ion fees, or any recital fees.
