"Wayne Burritt has given our daughter, Lauren, the gift of ballet as she had never known it before. Her self-confidence continues to grow as her technique improves through nurturing instruction. Wayne challenges Lauren to be her best."

Jim and Vickie Zitney

"Wayne Burritt offers the world of professional dancers, and people taking their very first dance classes, the opportunity of a lifetime. Wayne is the epitome of a professional. His credentials stand alone. However, he brings with his many talents the direction and inspiration that enables dancers to reach their highest potential."

Donna Woods

"I looked high and low for a more professional ballet teacher, and was having trouble in Western North Carolina. Then Wayne popped onto my radar. I was impressed with Wayne's candor and relaxed way of being with the girls. They all enjoyed his teaching and always listened attentively. He was always very professional. My daughter showed improvement from the usual standard ballet teaching that is usually given in the Asheville area."

"Through his patient, gifted teaching and personal love of the dance, Wayne has shared and inspired my daughter to the wondrous possibilities of ballet. Where he sees potential, he has the experience to draw out the best! I have watched her be challenged and grow so much under Wayne’s nurturing leadership. We owe a debt of gratitude to Wayne for teaching more than just excellent ballet!"

Leslie Butters

"We have been very fortunate over the past 2 years that Wayne has traveled from Asheville to our little studio in Fountain Inn, SC to teach ballet and pointe. It was immediately apparent that Wayne is an extremely caring and conscious instructor. He has the ability to push each student beyond what she may believe her limits are, whether beginning or advanced, seeing in each individual dancer the possibilities that the dancer herself may not. We are very grateful to Wayne for the expert instruction he has given Caroline and helping her to achieve her goal of being accepted to the SC Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities residential high school. But more than that, we are thankful for the caring and involvement he has shown, even driving from Asheville to Greenville to see Caroline's Governor's School performance last summer."
