This is a wonderful, family run dance studio. Our young daughter had a great experience and the performance element was wonderful!

I have three daughters and a son that take ballet, tap and jazz here. Your kids will learn…read morediscipline, and structure, and classical ballet. Don't lose heart, parents, this journey requires you to let go and let the teachers do their job. The dynamic of the class varies, but the teachers are consistent. Observe the more advanced classes, the dancers probably grew up and looked just as confused as your 3yo does. But they will get it, and they will be better for having been a cookie joe dancer.

Initially, I really liked the school. I took my daughter who is three years old and we endured…read morealmost an entire year. My initial impression was good because they have a lot of good morals and they are actually teaching the little girls good technique. However, after a few months, I started to notice that there was a lot of distraction happening, especially in the little girls class. The instructors focus was to try and convince even younger little girls maybe two years old and younger to try and come in to take the class. The instructors attention to the girls sitting on the floor with their parents Was more than 50% of the class this really distracted my child. I had my in-laws and my husband also take my daughter when I could not and they did not have any nice things to say about the class. They mentioned that expectation was way too strict for little girls And my husband did not like the atmosphere that was set by the owners-- he said that they were not friendly toward him at all as a first time parent parent taking his child. As a dancer, myself with a degree, I also understand that temperature is important in the studio, but in the summer months it was way too hot almost 80°. I don't think this is an appropriate temperature. I don't think they carry themselves in a nurturing and comforting way. We have found the climate to be very militant as opposed to relational. They are diplomatic and do nice things for the community, but not enough to keep us here. We will not return to take class.

I studied Spanish, French, Italian and Arabic in college so I am pretty familiar with language…read moremethods and classes. I must say that I LOVE Alliance Francaise. My teacher, Cecilia, is fantastic! She is very knowledgeable and understands the difficulties English speakers have. Also she knows where each student is at and asks questions designed to allow us to practice what we know and learn some new vocabulary. She is very good at understanding what we want to say and helping us say it in French. I have heard from other students that the other teachers are the same. The immersion method used is a little tough at first, but you get used to it and it is really effective. Also the other students in my class are great. We always have fun in class and the time flies. The class prices are reasonable, actually a good deal for such small groups. After having taken classes here, I don't think I will ever go back to a college or university for lessons. If you want to learn French, I definitely recommend the Alliance Francaise!

The Alliance is a non-profit organization that promotes French language and culture in over 138…read morecountries! The one in Houston is located in a cute historical mansion in the Montrose area and offers French classes, and various cultural events such as art exhibits, wine tastings, film showings, lectures (my favorite is the "Présentation d'actualité française" series which is when they invite a French journalist to discuss French current events en française, of course!) and other fun social events. I recently went to the 85th anniversary of the Alliance with my friend from Belgium and we had a great time! They served great food made by a local French chef and the wine was flowing in the large room, which also serves as an art gallery. There is a small library where you can rent books and movies. I took French lessons when I first moved to Houston 10 years ago and I remember the teachers being fun and all fresh off the boat from France! Great place to meet fellow ex pats, francophiles and people interested in learning the language. This is the go to place for all things French in Houston! Check out their website for upcoming events!
