I just moved to Georgia, we are a military family. I heard they were looking for new instructors. I will start teaching within this very difficult and challenging time of Covid-19. I have been met with nothing but positive, outgoing, and friendly people at this studio. I have taught at several different studios in five other states and they already make me feel like family here at AOD. I look forward to this year. This studio, after classes begin back in January have a missed class limit of 6 classes because of recital time. Once four classes are missed you must take a private to catch up on your recital routine and once six classes are missed you will not be able to do recital. All of the studios I've taught at usually teach through holidays and even some federal holidays. I as a teacher have had to teach on federal holidays when my husband has been off or find a sub. Just a little peek into the dance world from a teachers perspective. read more

My daughter has been a part of the Academy of Dance family for the past 8 years and my son the past 3. The staff, from the front desk to the director, are amazing! I greatly appreciate the hard work that each of the instructors put into their classes to ensure that every child has a successful dance year, and that hard work shows at the yearly recital. They have gone above and beyond whats neccessary to make the studio feel like home to the dancers. We love the Academy of Dance. There is no other place I would ever dream of taking my children to! read more

The Academy of Dance has been a positive force in my family's life over the last ten years. Five of my children (two sons and three daughters) have taken classes and I have been impressed by the quality of instruction and personal care that the teachers exhibit. There have been many opportunities for advanced study through experienced guest teachers from around the country. My children have enjoyed many opportunities of performing in a wide array of venues, which have given them a deeper love of dance and of community service. This is a great environment for children of all ages! read more

The best dance studio by far! They truly care of the children and take the time to choose appropriate costumes, music and dance moves.

We keep our son busy with lots of different activities throughout the year exposing him different interest in hopes of raising a well-rounded young man. When he finds an interest in something, we follow his lead and encourage that interest. This time it was dance classes. Academy of Dance is conveniently located to Robins AFB so this made it easier to get our son to class as my husband and I are active military members and we work on base. In addition, I understood this business was a military friendly business. In all, our experience was not as great as others. The class was a year long and the amount of funds you pay throughout the year, you'd expect to perform no matter what. We had a conflict where my son had a robotic showcase from a summer camp he was attending for a week, which happened to conflict with dress rehearsal at Academy of Dance. We asked a staff member if we could reschedule a dress rehearsal with the teacher beforehand separately. We were told in a very disrespectful way, tough cookies you miss rehearsal, you don't perform. No efforts where made to come up with a solution to remedy my son rescheduling dress rehearsal after all the classes he had attended throughout the year. Not to mention all the funds, over $600+ dollars down the drain. They didn't seem to care at all the investment we had placed and were comfortable in blowing us off. One last thing, they are not military friendly at all, we were chastise for not attending class on Memorial Day. Last I checked it was a federal holiday and a holiday we take seriously as military members. On top of that we were out of town, but we got the third degree and was told we should have read our information packet. I have been more than respectful and my son only missed very few classes throughout the year. The staff is rude and disrespectful and doesn't give a hoot about anything else but your payment and the performance. I have never been so disrespected as we were ignored the whole time. They never spoke kindly to my son or me and my husband throughout the year. When when spoken to, were asked condescending questions and making condescending underlined statements. We never felt like part of a family. There was a new teacher in the middle of the year who gave my son some relieve as he talked to him regularly with respect and made my son feel good by believing in him. This teacher was the only highlight of this experience. I would not recommend this place, if you have other commitments as they are not flexible at all to work around any conflicts you may have and no refunds. read more
