    Family run and family oriented!…read more My daughter has been part of this dance studio since Mommy and Me classes and transitioned onto the competition team at 5 years of age. She is now 10 and has experienced such growth since her first few years at this studio. All the teachers bring such passion to the art of dance. The school is an inclusive atmosphere that caters and nutures all levels. If you are looking for a dance school that will push your dancer to be a better dancer, this studio will meet the mark.

    Me daughter who just turned 4 a few weeks ago was taking ballet lessons here. The class is 90…read moreminutes long, so it's difficult for her to focus the entire time. Yesterday when I picked her up, she was waiting patiently in line for a sticker after class when the instructor told her she didn't behave well enough for a sticker, maybe next time, as she handed every other child a sticker. Then, the instructor proceeded to hand out munchkins to all the kids in her class, even some younger siblings, and only excluded my daughter. I called and spoke with the woman at the front desk, who just defended the instructor. When I asked why no one spoke with me if my daughters behavior was a problem, she said they usually speak with a parent after multiple incidents, and this was just the first time. Apparently, this punishment was because my daughter was moving in the opposite direction she was directed to, which shows how developmentally inappropriate a 90 minute class is for a 4 year old, and the lack of training the instructor must have had. I would call this bullying, and will not be sending my daughter back. I am appalled she was treated this way and I will be more careful about whose care I leave her in when selecting another dance studio to try.

    This was a spur-of-the-moment activity, but a friend of mine wanted to try a ballet class to see if…read moreshe might get back into dance as a hobby. Another friend had taken classes at this academy before and highly recommended it, so the three of us booked an Introduction to Ballet class on Sunday at 12:00. Check-in was quick and easy. The class was $25 for an hour and a half, which I think is very reasonable considering it's from an actual ballet school. There's no strict dress code, which worked out well since none of us owned ballet attire -- we just wore regular workout clothes and socks, and it was perfectly fine. The instructor was wonderful. She started by asking who had never taken ballet before, then positioned the newer students between people with experience so it would be easier to follow along. I really appreciated that, as I have no dance background and definitely found myself lost more than once. Having people around me to follow made it much less intimidating. The class itself was energetic and fun. The instructor was patient, encouraging, and made sure to keep things approachable for beginners. I'm sure my form was atrocious and I messed up plenty of times, but nobody cared -- the atmosphere was supportive and welcoming, and everyone was just there to enjoy themselves and keep trying. The class had people of all different skill levels and abilities, and it felt very inclusive. Overall, this was a great introduction class, especially for someone nervous about trying something new. I never once felt self-conscious, and I genuinely had fun. I'd highly recommend this academy to anyone looking to take dance classes, whether you have experience or not. If I were interested in pursuing ballet, I would definitely come back.

    The two stars are for the few good teachers in the adult division. I wouldn't recommend the school…read moreat all. The instruction tends to be very very bad. You'd be better off trying another school altogether.
