I was a student at Barriskill for over a decade, and I can sincerely say that it has been my second home. It has changed me in so many ways. In the dance world, more often than not you are met with toxic, disrespectful people, which is why I feel like I won the lottery with Barriskill. The teachers are all incredibly supportive and inclusive, and are clearly very passionate about what they are doing. Every staff member prioritizes the students mental and physical health over anything else, and I never felt like I wasn’t respected or valued by any person in that building. If you are considering signing up your little one for Barriskill classes, I cannot recommend it enough. No matter how long they are a student, they will leave with a community of friends and mentors that care about and value them. I know I did!
