Cornerstone Ballet - Simpsonville, South Carolina

Anna Roberts

Our family is so pleased with Cornerstone Ballet. The director, Amy, is organized, poised, and professional. The staff is qualified and encouraging. I love the classical, technical instruction that helps children grow in their skills in a fun and nurturing environment. The families here seem to share similar values.

Well done, Amy and team! I’m so impressed and thankful for the work you do! ?

We love Cornerstone Ballet. Amy Deshong has taught and mentored my girls for 12 years and they love her. All the teachers are wonderful and truly care for the girls. At Cornerstone your dancer will learn great ballet technique while being emotionally uplifted. It’s truly a blessing to have this studio in the upstate.

I’ve had the pleasure of teaching with Amy. From a teacher’s perspective, this is the most well-run dance studio I’ve ever been a part of. Amy DeShong has created an environment that is positive, celebrates successes, pushes the students, and provides the highest level of classical ballet training in the area. I remember walking in the first day for my trial class and being amazed at the professionalism that the students had – respectful, applied corrections immediately, hard-working, and dedicated to their training – all part of the culture created at Cornerstone.

Your dancer will be in class with great quality girls and boys and will learn far more than ballet…they will learn how to be kind, compassionate, hard-working, believe in themselves, and create goals! They will be a part of a program that truly fosters the development of self-esteem, responsibility, and love for dance! If you are looking for phenomenal training and a studio that will welcome you like family, then Cornerstone is the place for you. Cannot recommend enough!

For years i have had nothing but great experiences with this studio. Each teacher/employee is very nice, helpful, and want the best for each student and their family. Specifically, Brantley has been very supportive with each student and each time i am in the studio, students cannot wait to enter her classroom. If you are looking for a studio to start your little one or continue your child’s ballet experience, definitely worth checking this studio out!

I am so thankful for this loving environment for my child to learn ballet. Amy DeShong and her team of teachers foster a positive and nurturing environment where the older dancers encourage the younger dancers and everyone supports each other. I've helped backstage and seen the level of professionalism, organization, as well as encouragement and support. The dancers are excited to learn and grow in this art form. Don't be surprised if your child grows in confidence and maturity as well as new ballet positions 🙂

For the years we have been under the tutelage of Mrs Amy and her amazing teachers I have watched my daughter blossom not only in her dancing but also in her self confidence. I would highly recommend Cornerstone Ballet for a warm and caring environment for girls and boys to stretch their dancing wings.

Excellent technical ballet instruction combined with an uplifting and encouraging atmosphere! That is a challenging combination to find, but Cornerstone Ballet does it seamlessly. My daughter looks forward to every class and has grown so much here! Very professional and a safe/ healthy place for young minds and bodies.
