Rocio Madrigal
Morgan is such an amazing teacher to Angelica. She has so much patience and shows great concern to attention and details of the dance. She manages all the children with ease and definitely shows great interest with all the children.
Nichelle Fowler
This is my daughter’s 3rd season at this studio. She just loves going to dance and the staff and classes are fantastic!
Celinda D
My daughter has been dancing here since she could walk (she’s 12 now!). We’ve enjoyed every class. We’ve taken tap, jazz, ballet, lyrical, hip hop, musical theater, and lots of technique. This academy is perfect for those looking to just have fun, and for those that want to perform and compete. My son loves the boys hip hop. The instructors are professional but laid back. The best part is the friendships that have developed over the years, this is her home away from home!
Candace DeArmond
We just moved to the area a couple months ago. My kiddos were highly involved in their studio back home and on company team. When I say the owner, company director and everyone in between made us feel welcome, it’s an understatement. We already feel at home at our new studio. Wonderful dance instruction, the kids have a blast, and they are learning a TON!!! I expect is to be a part of the DAA family for years to come!!
Nickii Rice
Mrs. Georgette is my daughter's favorite dance teacher. My daughter is in the "Darby's Dance Class" for special needs. Mrs Georgette is so patient and talented. So glad to have her as a dance teacher 💓 …
Yvette Cooley
My Grand daughter attends this academy and Mrs Hedi has done a wonderful job teaching her !!! We attended the recital and were very happy!!
Brycie Decker
We love DAA! Our daughter is 4 and takes Glitter Gems and Hippty Hop classes. Our Son is 2 and we do Zumbini class with him. Dotty and her staff are super sweet. They are prompt to answer emails which makes us feel like they really care. The tuition is reasonable and I love that the cost of costumes is included in the monthly tuition so you aren’t hit with that cost all at once. Although we will not be attending during the summer due to other activities and travel. We have already registered fall classes.
Ashley McIntosh
My toddler just turned three and had her first dance session there last week. The instructor was patient and kind! My toddler enjoyed the class and has been talking about it ever since. The front receptionist was very kind and outgoing every time I have called and has been very helpful and pleasant to speak to.
Maria Williams
We absolutely love Miss Heidi! She always has positive things to say and is supportive of both parents and kids! My daughter loves going to dance class and seeing Miss Heidi and her friends!
Celinda Pena Downey
My daughter has taken dance at Dance Arts Academy since she was 3 (9 years ago). We love the teachers and classes. She has taken tap, ballet, jazz, hip hop, lyrical, and musical theater. My son also loves the boys hip hop classes! I would recommend them to anyone!
Jessyca Holbrook
My daughter has taken dance here for two years. She’s almost 6. At first it was just a dance class, something fun for her to do... but it has become so much more to us as time has gone by. It’s a community, a family. Dotty and her staff (all of them) make a point to get to know who each dancer is... to encourage and support each student at whatever level they are at. Their communication is amazing, their love for their students is endless and the recitals are phenomenal! Truly a culmination of love and hard work, both from the dancers and the instructors. It’s a pleasure to watch them all and so wonderful to know that my daughter can learn and grow with Dance Arts Academy for many more years to come!
Kayla Lau
My daughter loves going to dance each week!
Jennifer Brown
Dotty is the best ! My little princess wanted to start ballet when she was three . I was unsure of locations to choose but I’m so happy we went with dance arts academy. Dotty has helped her blossom so much into the little dancer she is. Some other girls in the class used to cry and be so nervous and dotty has been so patient and helped them become so comfortable and confident .
Kerry Harper Hallford
Addy loves her class. Teaches so much more than just dance!
Abbie DeGregorio
We love DAA! This is my daughter's second year at DAA so she decided to branch out from ballet and take both Morgan's Hippity Hop 2 class and Becca's Jazz/Tap 1 class. Her teachers are great with their class kiddos! Both Morgan and Becca are encouraging, patient, and know how to adapt their teaching to whatever the kiddos need each class. I've definitely noticed a boost in my daughter's confidence since she started at DAA last year! Thank you to Morgan and Becca for increasing my daughter's interest in dance and to Heidi for getting it started last year with Ballet 1!
Brittany Albizo
Amazing! All the staff is great with kids of all ages and abilities.
Donna Burbank
Ms Heidi is the sweetest dance teacher. She shows compassion when the students hurt themselves while dancing. My daughter absolutely loves her and has opened up so much since being in her class this year. Thank you Ms Heidi! We appreciate everything you do!

We have had the absolute best experience with Dance Arts Academy. The darbys dancer is an amazing organization and we have been so lucky to be a part of it. Georgette is a fantastic teacher with a heart of gold and makes my daughter feel so confident and welcomed. 😀 Best dance studio in the Boise area! …
Alicia White
We have been going to Dance Arts Academy for the last 3 months. My daughter is 2 1/2 in the me & my shadow dance class. She gets so excited every Monday knowing that it is dance day! I have called around different dance places before going to Dance Arts Academy, they were either really expensive or didn't offer classes for that young of an age group. This dance studio is very clean and very reasonable priced! Not only does my daughter enjoy this class but I also look forward to be able to dance with her and spend some time out of our busy day together to enjoy dance. Dotty has so much patience and always has fun dance routines for these little girls! Thank you for offering a dance class for a younger age group!
Leia Neely
Georgette is the most amazing tap teacher! I’ve been in her adult class for 9 years from very beginner to the advanced class. My daughter spent more years with her, laughing, learning, and challenging herself along the way. Georgette is incredibly patient, creative, and fun. Her choreography and approach is the best!
