One of the best decisions we've made in 2024 is to join ZPD! My 9-year-old absolutely loves her classes and teachers here and has grown tremendously as a dancer. The teachers at ZPD are not only highly skilled but also incredibly patient, encouraging, and nurturing, creating a professional, elegant, and positive environment for young dancers to thrive. My daughter looks forward to every class and has developed confidence, discipline, and a deeper passion for dance.

I’ve also taken part in their adult program and absolutely loved it! It’s a fantastic way to stay active, refine technique, and reconnect with the joy of dance in a bright and supportive atmosphere. The instructors are just as engaging and attentive with adults as they are with the younger students.

I highly recommend ZPD to any parent looking for a professional and supportive ballet program. It’s been such a wonderful experience for our family!

I can't recommend ZPD Academy enough! The teachers are incredibly skilled and passionate about teaching ballet at all levels. My daughter has been attending for the past year, and I’ve seen remarkable progress in her technique, artistry, and confidence. The teachers take the time to understand each student's unique needs, guiding them with care and attention. This ensures that every dancer feels supported and encouraged to reach their full potential.

I feel completely confident that my child is receiving top-tier training, not just in technique, but also in the values of discipline, dedication, and a true love for the art form. We absolutely love ZPD Academy and are so grateful to be part of this amazing ballet family!

Our twin daughters have been learning ballet at ZPD, and the experience has been absolutely amazing! The school is home to many highly professional instructors who deliver top-notch training.
Mr. Zhao, a former principal dancer at Boston Ballet, is not only incredibly skilled but also patient and detail-oriented, ensuring that every student receives personalized guidance. Ms. Yan is meticulous and dedicated, focusing on both foundational skills and artistic expression. Additionally, there are several other experienced teachers who provide excellent support and instruction.
The classes are thoughtfully structured, and the learning environment is warm and welcoming. ZPD has helped our daughters improve their ballet techniques, build confidence, and develop a true passion for dance.
We highly recommend ZPD to any family looking for professional ballet training in a nurturing and inspiring setting!

ZPD is an exceptional ballet school that offers a perfect blend of technical rigor, artistic expression, and a nurturing environment. From the moment you step into their well-equipped studios, it’s evident that they are deeply committed to fostering a love for dance and helping students reach their full potential.

Having taken multiple classes with ZPD, I can confidently say the faculty is outstanding—highly skilled, patient, and genuinely invested in each student’s growth. They strike a perfect balance between challenging students to refine their technique and inspiring them to express themselves through movement. The individualized attention and encouragement they provide create a supportive atmosphere where students feel confident to push their boundaries.

If you are seeking rigorous ballet training in a nurturing and encouraging environment, ZPD is an exceptional choice. My own ballet journey began as an adult student with Junxiong and Xiaowan, and I was immediately impressed by their artistic expertise, patience, and meticulous attention to each individual student. Their ability to create a supportive atmosphere while upholding high standards inspired me to enroll my daughter in ZPD’s ballet program.

Since joining, my daughter has experienced remarkable growth—not only in mastering ballet fundamentals and techniques but also in her confidence, passion for the art, and self-motivation. The instructors at ZPD go beyond teaching dance; they instill discipline, creativity, and a genuine love for dance. Watching her flourish both on and off the stage has been a joy, and I cannot recommend ZPD highly enough for anyone seeking a holistic and enriching dance education.

PS: The brand new studio is an added bonus! Located in a super convenient area, it offers easy access to a variety of shopping and dining options, including Whole Foods, Marshalls, Starbucks, Energy Plus, Eva's Little Kitchen, Blue Fiji, and more. Whether you're grabbing a coffee or picking up essentials after class, the surrounding amenities make the experience even more enjoyable.
