I have been at this place for 8 whole years of my life and not once have they treated me or anyone else I know badly. The teaching is immaculate, though some teachers may be more strict than others. They're all really cool though, you'll likely attach yourself to one or more of them. They all have a unique way of teaching, and GAD even has a boutique in which you can buy leotards, tights, and any shoes you need. You can also choose which classes to choose from: hiphop, pointe, contemporary, ballet, jazz, modern, tap, etc. Can't forget how they also teach some musical instruments, too! I love this place, I don't think I'm ever leaving it.

Moving into the metro-Atlanta area, we wanted to find the right place for our daughter to continue dancing and further develop those skills. From experience, we knew a few things that we wanted and didn’t want: we wanted professional instructors and not just nice teachers with degrees. We also wanted quality programs instead of the “everyone is a star” kinds of stuff. Truthfully, we wanted our daughter to be pushed and to strive for success (even while experiencing occasional defeat) rather than to be rewarded unrealistically; this better prepares her for the real world. Of course when she was little, we wanted her to have fun and be happy. As she’s gotten older we believe that if it’s worth doing - it’s worth her best efforts. For us, Georgia Academy of Dance (GAD) was the perfect blend of professionalism and youth instruction. We are so happy that we found them - they bring out the best in our daughter. When we looked online at the biography of the director and teachers we knew that this academy was the real thing, but we have since discovered the wonderful GAD community and its leadership which is both kindhearted and approachable. At every age, every level, kids are affirmed and challenged. Our high school daughter is growing and developing beautifully - GAD has been instrumental in her success. GAD will bring out the best in your child in more ways than just excellent dancing.

I have been going here since I was three and it has been the best experience of my life. They improve your technique and help you to become a better dancer.

I am so blessed and grateful to work for a company whose mission and vision of inspiring students in the arts has been accomplished every year for the past 28 years!! My entire life, career, and the woman I am today is a direct result of the passionate, inspiring, and exceptional quality dance education that I received at GAD & the Performing Arts, under the direction of Mrs. Sherri Davis. My journey started as a student of GAD & the Performing Arts - At age 9, I became a scholarship student with Georgia Dance Theatre and was a company member for 9 consecutive seasons. After graduating high school, I furthered my career in the arts by becoming a GAD Educator and Professional Company Member of Georgia Dance Theatre, while attending Emory University in Atlanta, GA. While in college, I danced professionally, taught all genres of dance at GAD, and graduated with honors and a double major. After a rewarding 10-year career as a professional dancer, I chose to keep my career at GAD & the Performing Arts as a GAD Educator and was offered the opportunity to be the Marketing Representative for GAD & the Performing Arts. In addition to the many years of performing arts and dance education, GAD has taught me SO many life lessons and skills that have shaped me into the woman I am today - Perseverance, Determination, Discipline, Integrity, and Courage, to name a few! I am so grateful for GAD, Director - Sherri Davis, and the many educators who inspired me to pursue a career in the arts! It is because of their mentor ship and guidance that I have been able to accomplish such incredible dreams at a young age and continue to pass on the love for the arts as a teacher and mentor myself!
