    Amazing dance studio! The dance director, Cruz Conde is an amazing instructor. Not only on dancing,…read morebut on overall growth for the dancers. He really pours out his heart for his students and it shows. My daughter started here a year ago. She is super shy, but enrolling her in this class (first k-pop, then Hip Hop), and with Mr Condes exceptional encouragement and support, it really helped my daughter go outside her comfort zone and start to really believe in herself and others. I highly recommend TVDC!

    I'm writing this review because I wish someone had warned me before we invested two years,…read morethousands of dollars, and so much emotional trust into an environment that ultimately felt controlling, reactive, and unforgiving. The performances may look polished on stage, but behind the scenes our experience ended in a way that broke my daughter's heart. Our family had been part of this dance studio for two years. My daughter loved dancing there, enjoyed the performances, and genuinely cared about the friendships she made. Unfortunately, our overall experience became increasingly stressful and ultimately traumatized two innocent kids. Communication at this studio was overwhelming and often unprofessional. The owner relied heavily on the BAND app and posted extremely long messages almost daily. Important information became buried under endless posts, making it difficult for busy working parents to keep up. If a parent asked a simple question, instead of giving a direct answer, screenshots of old posts would be sent back with red circles highlighting information. If responses were not immediate (even during work hours or overnight) follow-up messages would quickly appear asking why nobody had replied yet. There was also constant pressure to spend additional money beyond tuition. Between bonding events, merchandise, photos, private lessons for missed classes, food sales, hundred dollar bags, accessories, and other add-ons, it often felt like upselling never stopped. Despite working full time and later caring for sick grandparents, we always made sure our daughter attended class, practiced at home, participated in performances, paid tuition, supported fundraisers, and additional bonding events. Other dance parents helped us with carpooling during difficult family circumstances. Over time, small misunderstandings seemed to become personal issues with the owner. One example involved dance photos. I chose not to purchase a very expensive photo package sight unseen, but later viewed another parent's purchased photos to see the quality for future years. This resulted in angry phone calls accusing us of trying to "steal" photos, even though we were simply viewing a package that had already been purchased by another family. The situation became much worse after another family (close friends of ours) had a disagreement with the owner. Their son was suddenly removed from the studio. His mother later emailed asking if he could attend one final class simply to say goodbye to his friends and teachers. Because the kids normally carpooled together, he arrived at class with my daughter. Instead of handling the situation privately or compassionately, the child was turned away at the door and left waiting outside alone for a ride home. While this was happening, messages from the owner began appearing on my iPad questioning why he had been brought there. The child saw those messages himself while riding home. Before I even had the opportunity to respond after getting off work, the owner removed my daughter from the studio as well. Hours earlier, she had danced with everyone like normal. She was blindsided and devastated, crying for hours and not understanding how adults she trusted could suddenly cut her off without warning. No child should be placed in the middle of adult conflicts this way. Regardless of disagreements between parents and studio management, the children deserved kindness, professionalism, and compassion. Hours earlier she had been dancing, laughing, and participating like everything was normal. Then suddenly she was discarded. My daughter cried for hours. She could not understand how adults she trusted could smile at her one minute and remove her from everything the next. No conversation. No compassion. No chance to say goodbye to her teammates. Just gone. No child deserves to be put in the middle of adult conflict this way. I understand businesses have rules and boundaries, but there is a humane way to handle situations involving children. What happened to these kids was emotionally damaging and completely unnecessary. Parents considering this studio should understand that communication style, expectations, and conflict handling before committing financially and emotionally to an owner that does not ultimately have your child's best interest in mind.

    I highly recommend Black Diamond Kids Center Gymnastics! What I love most about this place is that…read moreit's a real gymnastics environment for kids. They have a closed room designed especially for little ones where parents can go in with them, which makes it very comfortable for young children who are just starting out. There's also a viewing room upstairs and another viewing area downstairs, so parents can easily watch their kids during practice. One wonderful thing about this center is that the little ones get to explore the big gymnastics area with real equipment and see real gymnasts practicing. They can touch, feel, play some of the equipments (with their parents ofcourse) It's so inspiring for them! The younger kids, together with their parents, can observe and learn from the older kids. One moment that really amazed me was when I was downstairs watching my kids and saw little girls doing kettlebell exercises. I was like, "Is this for real? Wow!" They're not just playing -- they are actually working out and building physical strength from a young age. I also love how they rotate leadership among the kids during group activities. You can see the little girls taking turns leading their group, which helps build confidence and teamwork. Using a real gymnastics facility with real equipment, and allowing younger kids to see older kids train, is incredibly motivating. It creates such a positive and inspiring environment. My children absolutely love going to this center. It feels like both a workout space for children and a place where they learn discipline and confidence at the same time.

    My daughter loooooves it here!! She was at another dance school in Brentwood that was very nice…read more But this one is really the fit for her! So glad we found them!

    My daughter started Fall of 2016 she was 3 years. She was practically dancing the day she was born…read more K.I.T.A was the first place we tried out, because the other reviews and times for classes didn't work for me. She loved it and she's been dancing here ever since. She took the creative movement class, then went into the ballet/tap class, then tried the hip hop class and back to ballet/tap. I love Ms.Katie, she really takes the time to show and teach the kids the positions and choreography. When she took the hip hop class she didn't enjoy as much as she did with ballet/tap, and I think it was because of the teacher. The teacher was young and didn't seem to know how to actually teach, she may be be a great dancer but teaching the young kids takes patience and knowledge. The kids seemed to be just playing freeze dance a lot during the last 15minutes than actually learning morning. When Ms. Chelsea went into the class and helped this other student teacher out, the kids seemed like they were actually learning and having fun. I was kind of annoyed for a while about that teacher to be honest, but wanted to give her the benefit of a doubt that she can actually teach. But Ms. Katie and Ms. Chelsea stepped in and helped the students understand the movements and choreography they needed to learn. The only reason I gave them 4stars was because of the hip hop class, but overall, my daughter loves K.I.T.A. My younger daughter wants to join hip hop and ballet/tap too. I just wish they had more classes for the younger ones after work hours so I can actually bring them, but I also understand, you can't please everyone. I would definitely recommend this place to others, my girls love them!
