My daughter absolutely LOVES her Ballet Lubbock Family! The staff is very professional and patient with the students; their organization and cleanliness is astounding! I have seen my daughter grow incredibly since she started attending Ballet Lubbock! If your child is interested in ballet I highly recommend this school, they go above and beyond for their students and family.

We love the community feeling and the support provided not just by the staff but by the parents. Our favorite time is performing in the Nutcracker and watching the friendships built outside out the normal everyday classroom. We love Ballet Lubbock because they genuinely stand by their dancers and.

Bought ticket to stream Nutcracker. No link, directions, or anyone to contact given. Tried to join a FB watch party...wanted my credit card again and another "donation". Won't waste time or money on this organization again.
