Using age appropriate music and costumes it is a safe and welcoming environment! Yes, we compete- but don't think "Dance Moms"....competition is not the main focus here, but an added "plus". We are so happy we switched to Performing Arts!!

I was looking to take up a dance class and was recommended to try a hip hop dance class at this…read morefacility in Hamburg . I called to get more information and was told it was quite beginner friendly and offered a 4 week session for $15 a class . That was definitely affordable, so I signed up . My friend Nunki decided to join me in this adventure . It was a smaller class size, only about 7 of us , and even though no one was a hip hop expert , you could tell there was some students with dance experience there. (which is not me) The instructor was young , perky, energetic and flexible (also things I'm not , but I can fake it!) The first class was very fast paced for this beginner , but the third week I felt a bit more confident in my moves . I will say it is a great workout and fun without being overly strenuous for this plus sized gal. The instructor was very engaging and helpful , she did lose track once in awhile with her thoughts and the next moves , but with a beginner class, it was no big deal. If you are looking to challenge yourself (or get your kids interested ) in a dance program ,look into Future Dance!

It is the dedication, care, and talent that make this a "stand-out" studio!

Possibly the worst place to send your child for a dance education. I danced here for 3 and a half…read moreyears, and took every available class and I got nothing good out of it. What I did learn from the classes was: incorrect posture, wrong positions of the feet, wrong arms, the wrong way to turn and how to use the wrong muscles. For about 20-30 in the beginning of class we would all sit on the floor and gossip about other people, talk about the latest fashion trends and movies and one time while my class was sitting on the floor talking about nonsense I got up and used the barre to stretch my legs and after 5 minutes of me stretching the owner Miss Chris said "okay girls we have to stop talking now because Ashley wants to dance and she looks like she's getting mad" I was mad. I had no friends at this studio and they took my parents thousands of dollars and I got absolutely nothing put of it. This studio is over priced by the way, they want about $50 per month for a one hour class once a week and that rate DOES NOT go down for the more classes you take. They want $75 per class for a costume which at most places charge $50-$60 at most which only costs them about $40- or less. They use cheap costumes and pocket your money. The owner Miss Chris and her husband are very rude. Her husband parks his blue mustang in the front parking spot right by the door, which I think should be reserved for paying customers. Miss Chris has said very nasty things to me which stick in my head till this day. During my time at METTS we went to one competition. I asked if I could compete my ballet solo and she looked at me straight in the face and said "don't expect to win" I ended up in 3rd place for my ballet division which I was very pleased with seeing how I basically used YouTube to teach myself ballet. Another time I asked her since she doesn't really offer ballet if there were any places she recommended me to go. Her response was "you're not good enough to take ballet anywhere else, those girls have been doing ballet since they were young, you won't fit in any where else" then I wanted to start pointe work and miss Chris said to me " do you really want to ruin your feet?" I guess because there was me and two other young girls in one ballet class, the only one ballet class the whole studio offers, she and the ballet teacher Shannon are not qualified to teach. While I was in this ballet class In my last year at metts, I purposely sickled my foot and wanted to see if the teacher Shannon noticed. She didn't. All she said was "good job" like she always does to everyone even if they don't do it perfectly and they need help. Maybe because Shannon didn't care if her students do good or not or maybe she is unqualified to teach dance? Chris is unqualified too. Her choreography is repetitive and sucks, the acro teacher Kate is incredibly unqualified, she used to cheerlead In high school and is best friends with the owner so the owner Chris thinks Kate is qualified enough to teach a dance class. I can literally go on and on forever about this place. I was very displeased with my experience here, and wrote my review on Facebook, hours later the owner and teachers contacted me via email and text message THREATENING ME to take the review down. They found a way to hide the reviews all together. This place is so sickening and unprofessional, it's really a disgrace to the dance community. Bottom line, don't sign your child up here!!!!

Then we heard about ZPAC. Best parenting decision ever made to enroll her here. Stacy Zawadzki-Janusz has encouraged, challenged, and pushed justice to be her very best self and beyond. She pushes accountability and self esteem. When Justice thinks she can't do something, Stacy says yes you can. Her 2 teachers that also work there have done the same. They have been encouraging and sometimes strict when needed. They have been sounding boards when she is having a hard time. I can not thank them enough for everything they have done for my daughter. They treat us like family and that studio has become like a second home for my girl. I love them all dearly and am so proud to be part of the ZPAC-Stacy Zawadzki's Performing Arts Center family. Thank you Stacy and Marcia and Lena for all the hard work you put into shaping these young ladies into young women. I am forever grateful.
