"It’s such a dream come true to be part of Mr. Chen’s class. Taking classes from a principal dancer from ABC and talking to him face to face was such a privilege. His class was very practical yet easy to understand. He understands our struggles and shared his experience with us. I can completely feel the passion he has towards ballet and his desire to pass on all his knowledge and experience to the young dancers. The classes are highly valued, and I believe everyone will leave with some improvement from them."

“The thing I love the most about Chengwu Guo Ballet is how much everyone loves ballet. The atmosphere is positive and encouraging, and I immediately feel at ease and ready for class.
All the students in the class are treated equally, regardless of their level. It is such a positive space to learn ballet. I love that Mr. Chen is a teacher who can demonstrate everything he is asking of his students. I really enjoy the way Mr. Chen explains the physics of the movement. He takes the time to explain and demonstrate in a way I can comprehend.
I am so fortunate to be receiving private coaching from Ms. Ako. The lessons are personalized to me specifically. Ms. Ako dissects each of the movements and takes time with me to place everything in the correct position. I really, really love this process.
I am thoroughly enjoying Mr. Chen’s Masterclasses and coaching sessions with Ms. Ako. I always leave the class feeling on top of the world and excited about the improvements I am making.
I feel so privileged and happy to be receiving expert tuition from Mr. Chen & Ms. Ako, and I would like to thank them both so much for accepting me into their very first masterclass program.”

“Chengwu Guo Ballet and Mr. Chen have been a fantastic re-introduction back into ballet for me. I had taken a long break since dancing when I was young and wanted to restart ballet as an adult. Mr. Chen helped me regain my strength and provided some great tips to further improve my dancing. Chengwu Guo Ballet's environment is inclusive, positive, and incredibly supportive. Under Mr. Chen's tutelage, my self-confidence has been boosted tremendously, and he has even supported me in learning skills I did not think I could achieve. From perfecting pirouettes to advancing my allegro, Mr. Chen gives practical tips that can be utilized in real-time to feel an immediate improvement in class. He also provided some excellent take-home exercises to help with conditioning between classes.
Whether it is learning the basics, honing existing techniques, or extending current skills, Mr. Chen's tailored feedback and advice have been amazing in helping me dance like I've never before. I look forward to continuing my dance journey and growing as a dancer under Mr. Chen's guidance. Thank you, Mr. Chen!”

"Absolutely loved the open adult classes provided by Mr. Chen. They are well-structured exercises that are easy to follow and support everyone in the class, ranging from beginners to intermediate/advanced dancers. I've learned a lot and can't wait for more seasons to come! :D"
