My daughter has been attending Studio 3 since 2010. I've…read morehad all 3 of my children there for classes. Emma, the owner, loves these kids and goes above and beyond for them every chance she gets. I've never seen someone more committed to kids as she is. I consider myself to be a protective parent and I trust Emma and the staff with my kids wholeheartedly. Throughout 2020 they have worked tirelessly to put safe systems and procedures in place to continue providing kids with opportunities to safely rehearse and even perform on stage! Following all city / county / state guidelines and mandates. Even going beyond mandated guidelines when it made it safer for the kids, their families, and staff. Studio 3 is my daughter's "home away from home" many staff and students have become family to her.

Looking for a studio to get your child moving? Do not stop here. My child started here in 2021. Her…read morefirst year, she had a musical theatre teacher quit, a ballet teacher quit, and her Saturday class cancelled. I should have seen the red flags. But I met the dance teacher Rea who so graciously allowed my (then) 4 year old to dance up and join a class for 6+. Because of this dance teacher, my child joined the dance competition team. The team, the dance teacher, the parents have all been amazing. But the studio director Emma is the only reason why we will not be returning. Rehearsals, events, and shows never run on time and working parents are expected to get time off with short notice when Emma finally decides to send schedules out. Private lessons are constantly interrupted by volunteers that Emma has hired or even Emma herself. If you are unfortunate enough to be bumped to the back dance room, be prepared to have your child dance around props and costumes. She is also highly unprofessional, she asks her parent volunteers for far more than she should. Billing is hardly ever on time. This year she double charged my account for lessons that we were previously charged months prior. My emails and texts and stopping at the desk went unanswered. It wasn't until I told the front desk that I was not going to pay for tickets to an event, that Emma was now magically available. Instead of remaining professional and saying it was a clerical error, she chose to blame two other staff members who have nothing to do with billing accounts. And what really did it for us this year was when Emma told her older son to hide behind dance bags at a dance competition in a dressing room for girls only. Other studios complained about her son and many of us moms warned her, and she chose to try to use her daughter's bag and my child's bag for her son to hide. Since that incident she has become vindictive, even going as far as yelling at children that they will not dance at recital. Unfortunately even with a great dance teacher and great community amongst parents, we can no longer subject our child to Emma. Not when my child's is telling me she is scared of her.

Our daughter Brooklyn started at Nuevoltion when she was about 2.5, and it's honestly been the best…read moreexperience. She's tried hip hop, ballet, tap, and a couple of the summer camps and has loved every single one. Her teachers (she's had Gabby and Angie, the owner) are both amazing with the kids, and Brooklyn always looks forward to class (it's the highlight of her week). The studio has a lot of options, the prices are reasonable, and the recital at the end of the year is super organized and fun to watch. We're really happy we found such a great dance studio so close to home. If you're looking for a new studio in Queen Creek, definitely give this one a try - you won't regret it!

When an owner/instructor is hanging out at clubs, bars, going to Disneyland or trips with the same parents of dancers, and ironically those kids get all the opportunities to move up.......i call that a complete conflict of interest. There are some wholesome instructors, but no matter how good they are, if the favoritism continues it is clear the studio will not grow into what it could become. Word will travel about this behavior as the dance community is small in the area. I hope they get their stuff together because the potential is there.

A Treasure of Discipline, Grace, and True Ballet Excellence…read more My daughter Sarah Spallas had the privilege of training at the Yen Li Chen Ballet School, and to this day, we consider it the very best training she has ever received. It wasn't just about dance it was about self-respect, discipline, poise, and learning to carry herself like a young lady. The instructors teach more than steps; they instill confidence, elegance, and inner strength. We've since moved to Florida, and not a day goes by that we don't miss this school. The standard of teaching is top-notch truly professional and deeply nurturing. It's rare to find a place that teaches both the art of ballet and the art of character. I can honestly say my daughter left that school better in every way not just as a dancer, but as a person. If you're lucky enough to live nearby, give your child the gift of this training. It's more than just a ballet school. It's a foundation for life. Forever grateful, A proud and thankful mother

I feel like I'm paying over $100 a month to watch my child run around a gym when the main goal was the have her start learning gymnastics.

I'm going to have make up stacked up that we can't even use. I'm very displeased with our experience at this place and the lack of knowledge the employees have.

I was looking for a mid-morning class time and for her to learn technique. Studio R Ballet is clean, organized, and everyone has been so kind.

I do wish they would have a homeschool program (looks like they take ESA!) because afterschool class times aren't super convenient. We live farther and traffic is rough if we were to continue going here as she gets older. Overall, we absolutely recommend!

The environment is positive and feels "like a family". The teachers have been a blessing and have become great mentors for my girls. Not only have they taught them proper technical training, but also how to be great, hard-working people. We are so blessed to be a part of such a wonderful school. Special shoutout to Ms. Robbin - the owner/artistic director-- you are truly an amazing mentor to my girls and I can't thank you enough for the amazing love and support you've shown my kids. If you are looking for a state of the art classical ballet school that teaches with love, but trains them to be strong dancers, Studio R Ballet is it!

I know covid is crazy, which is why we have avoided all indoor sports since feb 2020. I have exchanged 6 emails with the studio this past week, not one email stated the mask requirement. This was our first attempt back at indoor sports. We walked in, my kids were without masks, I had mine on to be courteous of course. The studio REQUIRED masks for the little ones... to each their own, but we dont even own masks for our littles. The fact that 3 little girls sitting on the floor right in front of us were maskless, made me furious. Why make my toddlers wear a mask when 3 8yo's were literally 24" from my children???? The mandate has been lifted! I fully accept if others choose to mask up, but to require toddlers to mask before dance class, you lost our business!

The teachers are all very nice! Very sweet to my daughter and I really appreciated that. I wasn't fond of the seating options to watch her dance though. Benches are small and uncomfortable. The dance classrooms have small windows and blinds. It is hard to see in the classroom unless you're standing at the windows and a lot of other parents stand and watch too. Cost for tuition is higher than other studios I've talked to. Almost twice expensive monthly. Class times weren't ideal for us. Wish there was a mid-morning weekday class for her because our evenings are pretty busy and the location isn't super close to our home. I don't want to deal with rush hour traffic. Overall my daughter said class was fine, little boring, so we will continue the search.
