My daughter had been on the dance team for the past 2 years in middle school and plans to pursue dance in High School as well. I was pleased to see that MUV offers flexible summer classes with the option to take various classes on a drop in basis. They offer high school prep classes, ballet, jazz, hip hop, technique classes and more. I have been so pleased with the classes and my daughter loves them. They have many highly trained instructors. They have multiple studios so they can run several classes at the same time. It is clean and well organized. I did have the pleasure of seeing their regular dance teams compete last year at a local competition and this studio does a great job!

This doesn't mean much to most people, but I think it is what made the school so welcoming and family-like in the past. In recent years, I have heard nothing but bad things, with parents and students alike feeling that the school has become more about the "business", more elitist, and more snobbish. I haven't been back since 2014 so I cannot comment on the accuracy of these statements, but something to keep in mind. This is a review for the adult classes only. I've danced for most of my life, but have not focused on any particular style. I tried out both Adult Jazz and Adult Ballet. Jazz was great - there was a thorough warmup, some across-the-floor combinations, and then an actual piece of choreography that we were going to learn and perform at the school recital! The instructor was awesome and friendly, accommodating the wide range of skills in the classroom. I didn't like ballet as much, but that's probably because I'm more used to the standardized class formats that are used at company feeder schools like Boston Ballet and Ballet Austin. There was less structure in the ballet class and - even though there were only 3 students that day - I felt like corrections were too generalized, unhelpful, and not given enough. Overall, a great place for recreational-level adult dance, but if you want to really work on and perfect your technique, I suggest you go elsewhere. The adult classes are really geared towards beginner-level individuals. Not a bad thing, just not what I needed at the time.

I was very nervous about social dancing. Dominic is a patient, clear teacher, incredibly clever at seeing and helping us correct our difficulties as we learn a dance. All the teachers are friendly and cheerful. Dancing has been great gentle exercise, and we always have fun. Recently, we rented the studio venue for an anniversary party for about 60 people. The space was more than adequate for that crowd, plus we had plenty of room for dancing, the buffet line, and the large photo booth. Dominic is great to work with and knows events. Cost was quite reasonable. He was on hand to help us with details. The studio provided set-up tables, chairs and linens. There is also a kitchen with a pass-through window and we put our beverages in their refrigerator. There is a big TV in the larger dancing room, and we ran a slide show there, which guests enjoyed. In addition, we created our own music playlist and the studio ran that through their sound system.

Tony can teach any dance such Salsa , Bachata, Two Step, Swing, and Argentine Tango etc. so it was nice that we had a choice when picking which style we wanted to dance to. My fiancé and I had no previous experience with Salsa dancing, but Tony made it so easy for us to learn! He taught us the basic connection principles and before we knew it we were doing many different types of and dips and tricks at an advance level. You will leave Tony's dance lesson not only feeling more in-tune with your partner physically, but emotionally as well. He has taught us many valuable dance lessons and life lessons in the process. Our time with him was always enjoyable! I would also like to add that we did this during the COVID pandemic and Tony's space was always sparkling clean, hand sanitizer available at all times, and he always wore a mask. Made us very comfortable. I am so excited to show off our new moves during our wedding dance. I HIGHLY recommend Tony for anyone interested in dance lessons! You will not be disappointed!

I can't believe I forgot to write a review of this guy's class. Guess I was trying to forget the…read moreawful treatment and lack of professionalism I received from the instructor. Tony was incredibly rude toward me when I attended my first dance session with him. The other students were more helpful and polite than the instructor himself. I'm not the most coordinated person. I'll admit that and appreciate any person's patience when teaching me a sport or activity that requires a decent amount of coordination. I believe I was learning Polka or foxtrot at his class, but I was struggling with getting the coordination down since I was a first-timer. Tony was going about making sure that the students were on the right track. He looked frustrated that I wasn't getting it, and finally started to berate me. He asked me: "Why don't you understand how to do it correctly? Can you not understand English?" I was stunned and furious to say the least. He wrote me off as a foreigner unable to understand English based on looks instead of being patient like a teacher should be. I'm a native English speaker and was born in the US, unlike him, but saying something hurtful so casually like that wouldn't be acceptable even if the person wasn't a native English speaker. I've heard that South America had horrendous racial tensions, so I could see that Tony brought its racism with him when he came to the United States. If you're not an Anglo or Hispanic person, and don't have any experience with dancing, then expect Tony to say something rude when you don't understand his dance lessons on your first try. I excused myself and went to cry in the bathroom for a few minutes for the poor treatment. Then discreetly left the building. Lo and behold, the man had the gall to follow me to my car! He even positioned himself so that I couldn't slam my door without hitting him. He started advertising his other classes, and gave half-hearted encouragement since I was a beginner. As far as I'm concerned, the "encouragement" was too little to late when he burned a bridge by criticizing my English listening skills. I won't try learning how to dance again thanks to this man even if it's for my own wedding.

When we first registered on the site, I put in my daughter's birthday and the only classes the website offered to me were classes for the wrong age group. I emailed and I was told they would register me for the correct class themselves. Around a month later when my daughter and I showed up for class, the studio was locked up and the lights were off. The only phone number we had just rang and went to voicemail. We hung around for a few minutes, then finally left. I emailed the studio and didn't receive a response for 3 days. The email I eventually received said that the class teacher was sick and had emailed the class in advance. I didn't get the email, though, because apparently I wasn't actually added to the class. I still had received billing statements prior to this, so I assumed they had actually done what they said they would do. Communication surrounding the recital was also mixed. I was told details about the recital in February, but then a few months later at the end of a class, our dance teacher said the class would not actually be in the recital, which was news to me and the other parents. I had already told our extended family the recital date. Better communication would help a lot. My daughter enjoyed the class and learned new things, but I think we'll look elsewhere for the fall.

Although the dance instructor was above average, there were a couple of things that made us feel so unwelcome, that we decided to pull our daughter out of the school after two classes. My wife has to entertain our 2-yr old son while the girl takes class. During the last five minutes of class, she would go to the school with the boy, to be there when the girl came out. In order to entertain our son, she pulled out some table games. The staff made it really hard for her. They told her that they were disturbing or in the way of other people. They even went as far as to say that they had just changed the "rules" such that she couldn't play with the boy in certain locations. This, while other kids were jumping and eating on furniture in the back and being louder than my son playing with a puzzle. For a minute there I thought this was a special rule for me as a non-member of the tight-knit friendship circle that the owner obviously has with the other regular moms. It is too bad that we have to take our daughter out as she seemed to enjoy the class, but as a business it's not just about the kids. The parents have to also feel welcome and this is certainly one aspect they seem to have neglected.
