Artistic Director Marla Hirokawa and instructors Brenda Neville and Allison Jay-Baber successfully completed the ABT Teacher Training Intensive for Primary to Level 3 and are officially ABT® Certified Teachers. The ABT curriculum combines high quality artistic training with the basics of dancer health and child development and it complements the goals of CBTB’s ballet programs.

"Covenant's care reaches beyond dance... They go above and beyond what would be typically expected. Words cannot express the gratitude and affection I feel for Marla and her staff.. The lessons and skills Hayley has learned will be carried with her not only through school and dance but through life."- Cara Raptis, academy parent
