Dance Studio 111 - Phoenix, Arizona

We love Dance Studio 111! My kids just started here in Aug 2024 and have learned so much already. They have a few recreational classes that are great for getting a feel if you are interested in a style of dancing. My kids also do a beg/int ballet class with Miss Ashley and absolutely adore her. Any production at this studio is very well put together. The costumes are beautiful. My son is one of only a handful of boys here and the owner, Kimberly, is having many of the boys costumes handmade to complement the girls costumes for recital. The office staff is so friendly and kind and Ann has always promptly responded to any emails I have sent and even will follow up with me in person when she sees me. This studio is the perfect size for meeting other people and making friends easily (for both the parents and the kids).

My daughter participated in their theatre production of Matilda last summer (in the lead role of Eric) and had the time of her life. I can say her acting and stage presence improved even more in just those 2.5 weeks. The production felt very professional. I was so pleased and impressed with the whole show. Nothing Kimberly does here is halfway. She goes all out and it really shows in the final product. My kids are currently gearing up for Annie auditions this Saturday for this summer's production.

I will say, the paperwork is pretty hefty. It is a lot to read through for recital and their summer theatre productions. That said, I so appreciate how thorough it all is. And they have options to pay for things entirely up front or do installments to work with a variety of budgets. I recently saw on an invoice for our next payment an additional charge that didn't have a line item for it. I sent an email to Ann, the office manager, and she got back to me in less than 24 hours (long before I would be charged) and checked in with me in person the next day to make sure I got it. It ended up being the fee for rehearsals for the finale in dance recital. Which I remember being in the paperwork that I signed when we turned in all of the recital forms.

I highly recommend Dance Studio 111 for both dance and theatre! My kids and I have all really enjoyed our experience.

Dance Studio 111 is so much more than just an award winning dance studio. It’s a home away from home where young children grow up to be kind, hard working, passionate human beings. This is our 4th year at Dance Studio 111 competing on a company team and performing in the Arizona Nutcracker. My daughter has gained so much confidence, self discipline, and friends that feel like family in our time here. We love our studio! Highly recommend!❤️

My granddaughter has been dancing at Dance Studio 111 for 8 years since age 2. It’s been a wonderful journey watching her grow not only in dance but also personally. The confidence and life skills she is developing as a competitive dancer will last a lifetime. The instructors are top notch and their award winning choreography is amazing. The dancers love them. Ann, office staff, is so pleasant and efficient. The kids love her. Miss Kimberly works hard to create a family atmosphere in her studio with many events such as pot lucks and always makes her delicious cookies for special events. All done with love. There is always something available for dancers to participate in such as the nutcracker, the spring theater show, recital, dance camps and intensives with guest professional dancers as well as other opportunities. So many friendships are formed amongst the dancers, parents and grandparents. My granddaughter is gaining so many wonderful experiences and memories to last a lifetime with her dance family.

My daughter has been dancing at Dance Studio 111 since she was 2 years old and is a second generation dancer at this studio as I grew up dancing at this studio as well. After 8 Nutcrackers, 6 competition seasons, 8 annual productions, and 3 musicals my daughter happily chooses to be part of the Dance Studio 111 family. The teachers are phenomenal and we get all our instruction from Dance Studio 111. The growth in these dancers each season is incredible!

My two daughters grew up dancing at this studio. They had wonderful teachers, were taught great technique, and built beautiful friendships. Dance is a sport , and like any sport, you will get more out of it when you put more into it. They put many hours into the studio and both continued to dance after high school and after college. I would highly recommend Dance Studio 111 to anyone who wants to enjoy a loving environment while also receiving excellent training.

Dance Studio 111 is my daughter’s home away from home. She has been dancing here since she was four years old and absolutely loves being a part of this incredibly special dance family. Not only has she been given a strong foundation of dance, she continues to grow & thrive because of the wonderful staff, training, love, and support she is provided. The people she is surrounded by are lifelong friends, the loudest cheerleaders and the best inspiration.

From the staff to the quality of the productions, Dance Studio 111 provides a level of quality that is difficult to find anywhere else. They provide the foundational training and discipline that really sets the kids up for success in a wide variety of ways in dance and in life. They have a blast along the way! Talented and dedicated teachers. Kimberly has built something special with Studio 111
