Upon entering, they will check your temperature and guide you to which room/suite your class will be. The staff were amazing and friendly. I had a beginner hip-hop with Chris Wu and it's amazing! Every one was so nice and just going with their own pace. I'm not a good dancer and it's nice that he is so patient with us. It was a fun class and I'm excited to try out more of it. If you're looking for any dance classes for adults, this is the place to go. Every one are wearing masks and there are social distance floor markings in the dance rooms as well.

We just changed studios and I really like this one. My daughter came from a dance studio nearby…read morethat she had been going to since she was a toddler. However, we never got a tour, we never got introduced to anyone, or by anyone. And that always stood out to me. We moved and I, therefore, moved my daughter to a studio near our new house, but she wanted nothing to do with it. As I knew I couldn't go back to her old studio, I found this one. It's clean, it's good parking, it appears to be in a safe location. There is always someone at the front. The owners literally introduce themselves and shake your hand!!!!! The teachers also introduce themselves and give you feedback after a trial class. I think my daughter has found her new studio. I'm willing to make the drive for her to be happy. The reason why we "can't" go back to her old studio is that we went from competitive to recreational and her original studio kind of treats rec as an after thought. Once recitals kick in, it's like 20+ students. Don't get me wrong, by daughter loved the studio. I, personally, wasn't really about it. When we moved to the 2nd studio, the one near our new house, my daughter wanted nothing to do with it. With 20+ kids in a class, it was a no for me as well. And rec kids are also seen as an after thought because there aren't that many options for them with certain teachers, days, or times. Anyway, finding this studio has been great. I hope my daughter really comes to like it.

This place is absolutely unbelievable. The ownership alone makes this place the best dance studio…read moreI've ever been to for my girls, and that's including the dance-mom elitist culture that seems to be so common at other studios in this area. The Good Stuff: 1) The entrance to this place is magnificent. It's welcoming. Formal. Not "obnoxious trophy" layered, but feels like a professional studio. 2) The staff, and especially the ownership, is WOW! My daughter had some post-COVID anxiety about being away from us for so long, but the owner of the studio spent so much time with her, trying to warm her, welcome her, invite her, make her feel safe. These employees care about the kids and care about dancing, and that's what makes this place so much better than the other studios we've been to. 3) The "levels" of teams are easy to follow and give kids so many opportunities to be as involved or "recreational" as they want. 4) We haven't been here long, so I haven't met a ton of parents, but the culture of these parents is so much less nasty and cutthroat than the other places we've been. 5) Their finance team worked with us when my daughter wanted to make some changes mid-month. No problems at all. Stellar customer service. Go here. It's amazing. As long as my kids continue to express interest in dancing, they'll stay at this studio.

Adelin was my girlfriends grand daughter when she hears music, she starts practicing her routine, she builds up confidence, she was awesome.

I won't give this place one star because they have some stellar talent, they're very competitive,…read moreand they have a few teachers that are great. To save time, I'll bullet point the pros/cons: Pros-- -Great facility with lots of classrooms and robust schedule. -Some strong teachers who focus on skill-based teaching as opposed to just recreation based "recital prep" classes. -Very reasonable pricing, especially as you increase the amount of classes and/or sibling participation. -The tumbling and jazz classes are great for improving flexibility, gymnastic skills and the kids love them. Cons-- -The "win at all costs" mentality has cultivated a parental culture like you see on those TLC shows with little kids. It's pretty demoralizing for some of these kids and certainly doesn't breed any sense of inclusivity. -Rec classes are literally an afterthought. The studio only really focuses on the teams. Some kids just want to have fun... And the parents here definitely look down on those who don't care about competitive dance. -Front office voicemailbox is always full, and they often don't answer. That's a big sign to me of unprofessionalism. -I don't think these folks once thought about COVID. They posted signs, and every parent disregarded them from day 1, and there wasn't any enforcement. The owner never wore her mask above her chin once. I just don't think my children should feel like they're less important because their parents aren't "friends with the owner" and they don't want to be the best dancers on the stage. They just like dancing for fun. We moved to another studio in our area and are incredibly happy with it, so there are positive options out there!

Yelp says 5 stars is "great" but my opinion of DSAPA is more like wonderful! My daughter has been…read moredancing there for the past year and has made great bonds with girls on her team, with her different dance teachers, and with the owner herself. Even though the studio is large in numbers, it feels like a big family because Sarah (the owner) sets such a positive tone with everyone. My daughter is thriving and it's such a joy to see how much fun she's having and how much she has grown in her dance skills this past year. I can't recommend this studio enough!

As parents of young daughters our top priority was finding a studio that prioritized age appropriateness in their music and costumes as much as we do and DSAPA exceeded our expectations.

He broke down the choreo into small chunks that made it easier to work on and he reminded us the transition moves in between each set of moves. We got a lot of reps in before moving on to each new section of the choreo. There were also short breaks in between to practice on our own, but I couldn't remember all the choreo lol. Class wasn't too crowded and check in was easy. I arrived a bit late because of unforeseen traffic but I was still able to catch on really quickly.

Our daughter had been coming to this studio for a couple years now and it has been a really…read morepositive experience overall. She joined the competition team and has grown in not only her technical skills and stage presence, but also in the relationships she's made with her teammates. Dance studios all have their own cultures, but this studio cultivates one where girls encourage, support, and cheer for each other. The girls are really nice to each other, and one of my daughter's favorite part of coming to the studio aside from dancing, is seeing her friends and teammates. The coaches know their dancers and have their best interests in mind. My daughter's coaches have encouraged, pushed, and taught her to elevate her skills and grow each year. They learn the strengths of all the girls and use it to create some really amazing dance choreography. The coaches are creative and talented, and it's very fun to see the dances that they come up with each year. Over the years, studio has grown a lot. It's a testament of the experiences of the families here. The studio has taken its growth and has done a really nice job creating classes for every skill level and age. There's a wide spread of classes that accommodates beginners and children all the way through teens and elite dancers. Because of its size and how girls are grouped, girls bond and make friends pretty quickly. The nice thing about the studio is that you can watch every class as a parent. Our girls are still young and it's fun to be able to see what they're learning and how their skills are growing. We've watched a lot of classes over the years, and we've loved watching our daughter grow. We've also gotten to know her teammates, coaches, and the moms. Because of this, DSAPA has turned into more of a community than a studio. The director, assistant director, coaches, and staff are friendly, kind, and talented, and we always feel welcome here. What's most important to us is that our daughter has fun... and that's a given. Along the way, she has also learned the importance of team work, time management, the rewards of hard work, and has made some great friendships along the way at the studio. I would recommend this studio to our friends and family. It's been a great place for our daughter and we are always amazed at how much she grows each season.

We love, love, love Stagelight for so many different reasons. My daughter started Musical Theater…read moreSinging and Dance about 1.5 years ago when she was 4.5 and has really stuck with it; and this studio is magnificent. 1. Ms. Lindsey is THE best. She teaches the dance portion and has so much energy, enthusiasm, silliness - she makes dancing technique so accessible to this age, which quite honestly is a bit more harder to captivate since their attention is all over the place. 2. The price/schedules is so amazing. It fits what we need and there are so many class options - including acting, dancing, singing. There's just a lot more than a dance studio..so if my daughter were interested in improv/acting later, then she can easily switch to that or use a makeup token to check it out. 3. The productions and how they showcase their students on stage is genuinely such a huge effort and I'm amazed at how they can do this for hundreds of students across 3 shows - we love it and my daughter has a blast on the big stage, with the stage makeup and showing off their skills. And we also love how the costumes are stage/age appropriate - which honestly is something I've noticed in other dance companies I don't love. Cannot say enough great things about Stagelight. We love it and you will, too!

This arrangement may work for older kids who are able to listen and pay attention but definitely not good for the 4-6yo groups.

I don't recommend for very young children.

In addition, the Rapunzel tower mural and the cloud paintings give the room a great fairy tale vibe for the little ballerinas. Another reason why this studio is unique is bc they provide a tumbling component at the end of ballet and tap. My daughter looks forward to the trampoline and learning tumbling tricks every time. I can't give 5 stars bc of an instructor. I agree w the parents- she tends to use a screaming voice and belittles the girls. She always starts late and rushes at the end to finish in time for the next class. What I find bothersome is her son interrupts her in the middle of class and they tend to argue about whatever. I wonder if she even enjoys teaching the little ones... what made it all better is going to a makeup on Thursday and seeing how incredible the instructors is, therefore we immediately switched. Also, a suggestion- replace the flooring so the kids' tap shoes actually tap.
