Our
Philosophy
Centers on instilling not only technical skill but also the joy and discipline of dance, creating a lasting impact that stays in a child’s heart forever. Our mission is to make a positive difference in the life of every child that walks through our door, if they dance once a week or six days a week.
As the only studio in San Diego offering the prestigious Royal Academy of Dance program, we provide unparalleled training in a warm, nurturing, and safe environment where every child feels valued.
With experienced teachers who are passionate about both teaching and motivating, we cultivate a sense of belonging, empowering each student to grow with confidence and reach their fullest potential. At TDA, we are more than just a dance studio—we are a home away from home, where families and dancers thrive together.
Opportunities
Throughout the year, The Dance Academy Del Mar offers an array of exceptional opportunities for our dancers to shine on stage.
From our elegant Spring Ballet performance to the vibrant Summer Recital, students have the chance to showcase their talent on stage at a professional theater.
We also provide a distinguished platform through the timeless Nutcracker production, where our dancers experience the magic of this holiday classic.
In addition, students can elevate their skills with
RAD exams, furthering their technical development, and those who aspire for excellence can participate in
elite ballet competitions, testing their abilities on a prestigious level.
These experiences are designed to inspire, challenge, and celebrate the growth of every dancer.

"The studio is immaculate. We have visited other dance studios in our area that are not as welcoming and left us feeling like just another number. However, when we visited TDA, we automatically felt at home and Ms. Francine made my girls feel so welcome."
