Premium Private Lessons offer personalized one-on-one training for any student seeking individualized attention. Revenue from private lessons covers studio operations and subsidizes free programming.

Meet our Founder
Founder & Main InstructorCristal Tao
Cristal founded TutuBallet Studio in 2023, motivated by a passion for making ballet accessible to everyone. Training intensively since age five and competing internationally at the highest levels, she recognized that the art form she loved was financially out of reach for many talented individuals who deserved the opportunity to dance.
She believes that access to ballet should be a right, not a privilege, and that spreading this art form requires both passion and practical business thinking.
