Valene H.

Yelp says 5 stars is "great" but my opinion of BDA is more like expectational! My daughter has been dancing there for the past five years and has made great bonds with the girls on her team and with the owner herself. The studio has become a second home to us. The staff, dancers and all the parents feel like family. Jessica (the owner) sets such a positive vibe with everyone. My daughter loves the studio so much. It is such a joy to see how much fun she and the other dancers are having and how much they all have grown. I can't recommend this studio enough!

The bestest of friends are made at BDA! These kids rocked the Summer 2018 recital!

Both girls have grown in maturity and grace under the direction of Ms. Sandra and Ms. Ariel, co-owners. Focus is placed on development of the whole person at PAE. Each one is treated with dignity and value not just in what the studio can gain from the dancer enrolled, but also in what the individual student can gain for his or herself. Dance technique is a major focus but so is working towards being a better person in lots of ways (ie. commitment, work ethic, and kindness). My girls are genuinely loved and this has benefited not only them, but our whole family. Many kinds of dance is offered here (call for specifics) from basic/beginner instruction to advanced. A recital is given in June to show off to family and friends each dancers hard work. They offer a Troupe that performs for community and charity events as well as a competition Company (by audition) for the more serious dancer. Emphasis is given to each Company member supporting and encouraging their fellow dancers while working towards and exhibiting each one's personal best. If you are looking for a family-friendly studio that has high standards, is modest as well as contemporary, Performing Arts Empire is worth investigating. We have been very blessed and it was a wonderful experience for our family.

I really miss Kips Gymnastics. My 4-year-old daughter has been to a total of 3 gyms, and I think…read moreshe grew the MOST at Kips. I started her there right around the time she turned 3. The class was honestly kind of hard/advanced for her because she was still so little. I think that class had kids from 3-5yo. We only had a couple lessons before the gym shut down because of covid. They reopened August 2020 (I think?), and I took my daughter back and she stayed there until the end of 2020. She made tremendous progress during those 4 months at Kips. I think the class she was in (led by Coach Candace) was really good for her. Candace was great with young kids and knew how to support them well. The obstacle courses were also a good challenge; they had beams, bars, and lots of tumbling activities. I also liked that it was an hour long. I didn't give 5 stars though because they changed coaches often. My daughter had 3 coaches during the time she was there. There was one coach before covid whom we didn't see again when we returned post-covid shutdown. When we returned, we had Coach Whitney. Whitney, I think, had a hard time with the littler ones. Preschoolers need visual and hands-on learning. She relied too much on verbal multi-step directions, which are really hard for young kids to follow. She also didn't physically demonstrate a majority of the things the kids were asked to do in the obstacle courses. Older kids would be fine with verbal instructions only, but the young ones need visual cues and they need to see things shown to them. Then Coach Candace replaced Whitney. Candace had a lot of energy and SHOWED the kids what to do rather than just telling them what to do. She was a better fit for the 3-5yo class. We moved after 2020 and have been to 2 other gyms. Neither of them provides the same kind of rigor that Kips has. I would definitely return to Kips if we lived closer. I'm thankful for the time we spent there.

Our first time joining gymnastics and Barbara at Kips was amazing! She went through all the details…read moreand answered all our questions. Thank you so much!

I wasn't sure what to expect and actually thought the venue would be smaller. The theater is located in the Corona civic center close to the police station and city hall. There are plenty of parking in on the streets and also int he civic center. You can park there on weekends which is a plus. The cast is so talented and range from ages 8 to 18 all from local schools in the area. The set design was amazing and transported you to the slums of NY in 1899. Costumes and makeup were a hit, too. I thought that adults were also in the play but it was just make-up. The transformations of these kids was pretty cool to see. The singing and dancing was perfection too. You can tell these kids worked hard to put on a production like that. BRAVO! Inside the theater, they sell merchandise for each play and also snacks to enjoy during intermission. You can also buy grams to send to your favorite star in the show which I thought was pretty cool. Everyone working the concessions and doors were great. everyone was so friendly and welcoming to their space. They are having another show in July, Moana Jr. which I really want to go see. it will be my personal birthday gift for myself. Till next time CAT! NOTE: Make sure to bring a sweater even on a hot day. The theater gets really cold inside especially in the back corners.

Wonderful productions put on by kids of all ages. Tons of rehearsals and dedication go into these…read moreproductions
