As a dance major at CSU, I wanted to supplement my university dance training with a few extra classes, and I arbitrarily chose FRCBA for proximity to campus. I was not disappointed. From the second I walked in, I felt safe and welcome at all times. Ixchel works with each student based on their individual goals and needs, regardless of previous experience or ability. She is respectful, knowledgeable, and accepting. The studio really has created its own little family. Highly recommended.

I have been dancing with FRCBA for about six years now after not dancing since I was a kid. I love dancing at FRCBA! I tried several different studios and the quality of instruction with Ms. Ixchel is second to none. Not to mention that she is an incredibly sweet person! I’ve gotten stronger and my body just feels better. I was in a car accident a year or so ago and Ms. Ixchel has helped me recover from the whiplash without getting injured again. I’ve seen her coach and instruct fellow students through injuries and different abilities too and it’s amazing. The studio space is light and airy and an enjoyable place to be. Everyone there is just plain nice. Fun and supportive people to be around. We laugh and have fun even while we are working hard, and everyone gets individual coaching for our levels and specific needs. All of the instructors at FRCBA are kind, fun, and lovely people, and experts in many styles of dance! It’s a great place to be!

My daughter has been dancing with Deneice and Ixchel for over 5 years. Her love of dance and her skills have been nurtured and developed in an inclusive and close knit environment. She has performed in many wonderful ballet productions with this incredible company. I highly recommend FRCBA!

As a lifelong dancer, I’ve had many instructors...Ixchel is BY FAR the BEST! I’ve also been a dance instructor and have a Masters in Education, so my expectations for quality instruction are extremely high. Ixchel always exceeds them

The classes have a comfortable atmosphere and I always feel welcome to ask Ixchel questions. She is a great trainer and encourager, and inspires us to work harder and try new material. I'm really encouraged by the progress I have made since I began ballet. This is a wonderful place to learn to dance.
