There is truly no place like Barfield! I began my dance career there when I was nine years old. Not…read moreonly did they give me a lifelong love for dance but they encouraged me to pursue dance as a career path. The women that own, direct, and teach there work so hard to create opportunities for their dancers to learn and shine in a safe and healthy environment. Dancers there are not just another student but a member of the dance family. I formed many lasting friendships at Barfield and I truly would not be the person I am today without the guidance and support from the staff there! After teaching in FL for a few years I was ecstatic to be able to come back and rejoin them as a fellow staff member. Now my little sister dances there and I can't wait for my future kids to do so as well!

As a parent of two daughters who danced there for 16 years each, I have had a lot of experience…read morewith BSD. Both my daughters were on the competition team for many years. When they were little, BSD was a warm, welcoming, nurturing home away from home for them. They learned and grew as dancers. When my oldest joined the competition team that had just been formed, I was able to compare and contrast what they were learning with other studios. This is when I realized that the quality of instruction was just barely par. They wanted to stay because they had deep relationships with the other dancers. Fair enough. Things changed after my oldest left for college, and my youngest was one of the most senior dancers. Although my oldest had found proof that the director had flat out stolen competition choreography and presented it as her own, the other parents opted not to speak to her about it. This was the start of the owner and directors revealing themselves. We were repeatedly overcharged, and when we requested itemized invoices, they did not even add up. One of the last statements had overcharged us $1500. My youngest became critical of the director and lack of professionalism. Likewise, she found that she could not trust her because she would tell lies to make up for her shortcomings. Weekly, my daughter would come home from the studio crying because of her experience at dance. Trying to talk with them yeilded no relief. The injury that really damaged our relationship with the family and the owners / director is when they secretly inlisted the teen and junior dancers in a local competition and intentionally left out the senior dancers. When confronted with this, they lied and denied that it was a secret, although none of the other senior dancers knew about it until it was over. Worse, they attempted to put the blame on the senior dancers. All was downhill from there. Some of the best and most dedicated dancers left. But my daughter opted to stick it out because the end of the season was nearing. She danced in the recital, but only a few weeks before she was to compete in the nationals, they cut her and another dancer who they deemed were troublemakers I suppose because they complained about being mistreated over and over again. They cut her from the team by email and would not accept a phone call or a meeting. Our family had been with that school for nearly 20 years, but they never even would show us enough respect to have a conversation about it. I even designed their new studio for them and never sent them an invoice. We were dedicated parents and supporters of that school. Even though that was months ago, my daughter still cries when she looks at her old dance bag. "They loved me. Why did they treat me so badly? Why won't they even talk to me? I dont understand. They taught us to be strong, independent women, and to stand up for ourselves and each other, but when we did they kicked me off the team without even a goodbye or an explaination" is what she just said to me through tears. As a father, this breaks my heart. Not because they mistreated, misguided, misled, and treated my daughter so poorly, but because they also crushed her spirit. If you send your daughter there, dont be fooled by the chandeliers and the sweet smiles. Those women will stab you and your child in the back.

Nashville's new dance craze is Milele Academy. I had the opportunity to attend one of their many…read moreclasses on New Year's Day, the Resolution WERKout with Jay Conn and it was so much fun. Milele Academy is located in the Next Level Fitness building entrance but on the right side. This two level space offers a plethora of classes from ballet, jazz, hip hop, contemporary, and many more that is suited for every dance and fitness level. Check their websites: http://www.mileleacademy.com https://www.instagram.com/mileleacademy/?hl=en for available class times, prices, and instructional videos. I love the design of the studio! First level has a large dance floor with mirrors, disco balls, a flat screen tv that played hip hop videos, lounging areas, and stage/platform that display several trophies. The second floor has a balcony that overlooks the first floor with a comfortable seating area, ballet room, and two gender neutral restrooms. They may have more but that is all I could see without opening doors or being too nosey. Overall it is a clean and comfortable environment. Parking on Church Street can be challenging at times. Luckily their are parking options: -There are a few spots in front of the Fitness Level-Milele Academy building, -Free street meter parking after 6pm, and -Free parking in the Metro Medical parking lot. Overall I enjoyed my experience and highly recommend Milele Academy to anyone who loves to dance and/or has a desire to learn professional choreography.
