Why families stay

Kids are the mission

Nineteen seasons in Savannah

Families have been growing up in this studio since 2007. Many of our teachers have been here for years.

Everything in one place

Dance, acro, cheer, theatre, piano, art and after school care. One studio, one schedule.

Room for every child

Recreational or competitive, first class or tenth season, each child moves at their own pace.

Family first

We treat every family like our own. Better is always possible, and we're here for the whole journey, not just the recital.

What our families say

In their own words

My child has been attending Inspirations Academy for 10 years. Three years with the competition team and this was her first year in the theatre program. The teachers are so patient and knowledgeable. We love Inspirations.
Tracie C.Dance and theatre parent
When looking for a dance class for my two year old, I found Inspirations Academy offered a TuTwo Twirl class, where most do not offer classes until 3 or 4 years old. Mrs. Nicole also has patience for the sometimes tired or scared 2 and 3 year olds. We could not be happier.
Rachel S.Toddler class parent
We have loved our experience at Inspirations. Shout outs to Miss Bee for her super fun art class and to Miss Paige and Miss Rebecca for making ballet class extra special for our girl.
Laura H.Ballet and art parent
Inspirations teachers are the best. We are grateful for each one and their expertise. They give their very best every week and it shows up in the skills and attitude of their students.
