Cindy's is the BEST dance studio in Seminole County! Our granddaughters have been there for a few years and the atmosphere is wonderful. Both our granddaughters love their teachers, and we love the fact that respect and kindness are expected! Great environment for kids! We more than recommend! read more

Absolutely love this studio! Miss Cindy & her dance teachers are absolutely amazing. My daughter loves dancing at miss Cindy's and the studio is gorgeous. As a parent wanting to watch their child dance the open view is such a treat, and the recitals are also spectacular. Highly recommend this studio. read more

I am not a student, nor a performer at Cindy's Dance Studio. My family used to the facility for my cousin's high school graduation party. It is a gorgeous studio. It has been refurbished in such a glamorous way. It is very spacious. We used the 2nd floor facilities, which has a kitchen, a set of bathroom, a sitting area with plenty of comfortable furniture, a changing room & a dance floor. AMAZING! Cindy is such a kind woman. She walked us around the facility & answered all of our questions. She even gave us great advice. I got to meet her dog, which I thought was a statue-so cute & a sweetheart. I even got to watch some of her students rehearse for an upcoming show. They were perfect. read more

I am reviewing this dance studio after my family and I had a very bad experience. My daughters were attending for their first year at this place and they started out excited. But after a few classes things quickly turned. The owner got rude with my eldest daughter for wanting to come to me to get a bandaid for a cut that was bleeding. Even though I was standing right outside the room and the teacher and owner clearly saw me jester to my own daughter to come to me, the owner and teacher rudely told my daughter that she was not allowed to come to me. That was red flag number 1! Then we returned for class the following week and my youngest daughter came out of class crying, the owner and teacher screamed at her and then when I confronted them on the issue they said my daughter was rude. First of all if you have any issues with a 7 year old that issue should be spoken about to the parent not screaming at a child. Needless to say we never returned and I will never recommend this place to anyone for anything! The rudeness comes from the owner down to the teachers and at first you don't see it till you are actually there a few times. I also witnessed mistreatments of other people and their children. It might be a pretty building, but it houses a monster who takes things out on the kids. Be careful! read more

The owner of the studio is very rude!! My husband always takes my daughter to class and always complains about, how the owner and dance teacher talk to him!! They are always really rude!! I took my daughter for her ballet pictures and experienced the same rudeness from the owner myself!! My daughters recital was coming up, the mandatory practice was on a Thursday at 8 am!! Regular people have to work!! I called the owner to explain and received nothing but slick comments as we had to miss practice because my husband had to work last minute!! At this point my husband did not even want to bother explaining this to the owner and wanted to pull our daughter way before the recital, I did not listen (because I had not experienced the rudeness yet) I want nothing to do with this unprofessional dance stuido!! I will drive a few extra miles and pay $20 more for a better experience!! read more

Fantastic dance studio. As a lifelong dance student and now a mother of a young dancer I come from a place of knowledge on this topic. Between my daughter and I we have seen and attended multiple studios. Cindy's is wonderful. The studio is gorgeous, the instructors are talented and the atmosphere is like a huge family. So happy to have found it. I would not have my daughter go anywhere else. The recital was full of amazing routines with a great mix of current and traditional songs. Cindy, the owner, is adorable and truly respects the dancers and is given respect in turn. She is also an extremely gifted dancer. Send your young dancers here. You will not be disappointed. read more

The cast was really good and I had a great time. I look forward to attending another event there maybe a comedy night next time. If you have you do kids or teenagers I'd highly recommend taking them to see this Musical.

Alive after five…read more On the second Tuesday of every month the town of Sanford holds a block party in the center of town. They vary in size and theme but one of the very best is something called Party Gras. Of course it's an obvious copy of the original Marti Gras down in New Orleans and even though it is much smaller in size and debauchery it still is fun and entertaining. They block off the street and musicians, artists and food vendors fill the area. You pay seven bucks for a wrist band and that entitles you to all the free samples of food and drink that you want. A cool idea because it allows you to try all kinds of different things, some of it you might not have bothered with if you had to buy a whole meal. You can go back as many times as you want as long as you are willing to stand in a small line again. The event also had three bands playing, mercifully separated by enough distance so they didn't interfere with each other. Some cool music and talented musicians. They also had a nice old car display, some creative art, and random trombone, trumpet and strangely dressed folks milling around. Of course a nice assortment of friendly and stinky dogs added to the ambiance. Certainly nothing like the original Mardi gras but then that is probably a good thing for Sanford. This is a cool event that allows people to have fun, hear music, see interesting people and eat lots of food without ending up in jail.

I'll mention that service is not as attentive as you would expect at a typical restaurant, as you are also watching a movie, so I'm sure it is to keep interruptions minimized. Today, I had a vegetarian wrap with French fries (and of course tasty popcorn!); all were very good. I especially like the fries they serve here, with a battered style coating that keeps the outside crispy, but with a soft interior. The one thing I've noticed is that some of the seats are getting a little worn.

We are always greeted warmly, parked strategically, and had the details explained to us upon arrival. Because our motorhome is 40' we have to park sideways so cannot see the movies out of the windshield as you would in a car, but we put out our lawn chairs and raised dog bed outside the rig and listen on our FM radio. We do tie the pups off to a post in front of us because others with dogs often park or walk nearby and ours are a bit too friendly. When the ticket booth opens, we pay for our tickets and concession voucher. The muffulettas and popcorn are both excellent! We were told we could run our generator before/after the movies but not during...worked out perfectly for us! Although our rig is self contained and didn't use them, bathrooms were nearby and open through the night. The even projected a free Valentines message between films as long as it was received a few days prior. Note: if you don't plan to listen from your car, you do need an FM radio...I don't think they have any of the old-fashioned window hanging speakers.

We accidentally lined up incorrectly and got a whole lecture how to read the signs. After paying $6 each and being charged an automatic $10 food voucher, we parked. The ladies working the concession stand are so rude. There's a sign that basically says "don't line up if you don't know what you want." The popcorn had been popped earlier so it wasn't warm and way too salty. The soda was flat, and the mozzarella sticks were again, salty. Apple Pay doesn't work! Movie started at 8pm and it was still daylight outside. The screen was still dark that no one could actually see the movie until an hour later. The instructions were to turn off the lights and engine, but the people around us had their engines on so the exhaust kept flowing through the lot. I wish there was an attendant that enforced the rules. Overall, it's an experience but they need to do better. I guess this is what $22 gets us.

You can arrive a half hour before the show starts to pay and get your spot to watch the movie. Tonight we watch Shang Chi and the Ten Rings and our experience specific to tonight... Not the best. In the beginning of the movie there are subtitles which you can't read because on this screen only the top line ever showed. So as long as there's only one line sentences you're good! In addition there aren't any loud speakers or speakers to place on your vehicle like many other drive ins have, so we had a really hard time hearing. I don't know if this movie was shot in dark lighting or if they needed to adjust lighting on the screen, but there seemed to be a glare or it was often hard to see some scenes. There was an idiot with his car lights on which may have posed a problem as well but no one said anything to them. No one walked around to check for things like that like many other theaters do as well. The website indicates if you have difficulty getting your lights to turn off they have covers for your car to use to dim your lights. There's no info about additional speakers though it does say if you have issues you can let them know. Also kind of bummed with the choice of preshow music. We really enjoy attending the theaters that okay the old fashioned tunes and ads! You only get half an hour before hand anyway which also could be extended some. Show up as early as you can within that time frame to get the best pick of parking spots. Also bring big spray or citronella candle or something. Bugs galore! We may try this theater again in the future but will need to probably bring a radio to provide additional speakers.
