One of my daughters is in Mrs. Karleen's class, and the change in her confidence has been incredible. She was a bit nervous at first, but now she walks in excited and ready to dance. Mrs. Karleen is full of energy, and you can tell she has a real passion for both dancing and teaching. My other daughter is with Mrs. Meghan, who is just as fantastic--so patient, kind, and dedicated to the kids. The entire staff is friendly, approachable, and always willing to answer any questions. We're so happy to be part of this dance community!

I am grateful for Jolynda taking in my son and having him join the cherubs this year. The family can't stop talking about his little performance at the recital although he didn't really do a lot of things. I love the Christian aspect of this dance studio. Every time I put on his dance shoes, he knows he is going to his little dance class. It's amazing how much he has opened up from being a shy boy to an outgoing prince! Thank you to all the teachers and of course Jolynda.

We tried out Sondance last spring for my 6 year old daughter. Everything seemed fine at first, but…read moreI started seeing red flags as soon as I started filling out the paper work. On multiple pages, they kept saying things like, "if you are offended, take it to God in prayer first before coming to management." Okaaaaay... Clearly they've had issues with parents in the past. My daughter's teacher was really sweet, and she enjoyed going to practice each week. About 8 weeks before the recital, I realized that we were going to be out of town for the dress rehearsal for the recital (which are mandatory), but we would be back for the recital itself. It was definitely a mistake on my part, but I thought we had enough advanced notice to inform them, and I knew that my daughter we be able to attend all other rehearsals. I had already purchased a $50 costume, and we had been present and on time to all previous practices, so I took my concerns to the staff. The secretary empathized with me and felt like the issue could be resolved, and suggested I talk to the owner, Jolynda. Once I explained the situation to her, she coldly dismissed me and bluntly said that my 6 year old could not participate in the recital (because she would miss ONE dress rehearsal). Not only was she curt in her response, she then proceeded to express her dissatisfaction in my mistake, and how it was going to mess up the whole dance, now that my daughter wouldn't be performing. "You really should've told us sooner" (at this point, we were 6 weeks away from the recital....). For claiming to be a "christian" dance company, they certainly don't show it. My 6 year old couldn't be in the recital from one missed rehearsal? Unreasonable, but fine. I get it. Rules are rules. Her delivery was just plain awful though. The most un-Christlike I have been treated in a long time. Oh, and the cherry on top? She has a "We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone" posted on her door.... Sounds Christlike, doesn't it? I should've trusted my instincts from the get-go when filling out the paper work that was PLASTERED in policies about praying before being offended.

My 5 year old daughter is very fond of painting & crafting so I decided to explore this place as…read morethey are new to see what all the offered. I had both of my toddlers with me and as soon as I walked in, instead of putting down the little dog in a cage as the lady was going to for some reason she thought to let him loose. This dog ran across the store after my kids and cornered my screaming, crying, horrified 3 year old in the corner. That was the first and last time I'll be returning back to this place not only for my daughter's love for art but also for any future girls paint night plans I had. This is not how you run a business by keeping your pets inside- specially if they are not behaved. The woman herself couldn't even catch up to the dog because of her own health, so there's no way she was going to stop this crazy dog. The least she could have done was apologize but that never came either. I picked up both my kids and immediately left. Either run a business properly and keep your crazy animals home or give the space to another business - because that's what manteca needs! *Personally I expected a cat given the business name, which I am also allergic too- so I wouldn't come back if that was the case either. *

Our initial intention was to teach our children perseverance and not easily giving up in the process of learning ballet. We wanted them to stand tall and not hunch when they're on their feet.

They can confidently perform the learned dance steps in the recital which held every six months. As parents, this makes us incredibly proud.

We have been going here consistantly a couple of times a week for about a year and a half. The amount of confidence built into my children by studying music at this location and participating in the shows they put together is amazing. I could not be happier with Gordon Kennedy(Owner), and the amount of growth in music he has provided for my children. They regularly have venues where your kids can participate whether it be playing an instrument or singing in front of a crowd. They have many different rooms for different voice lessons, piano, guitar, or any instrument you can think of. They even have a band room set up so that the bands can practice. When my fifth child is old enough, he will definitely be joining his four siblings studying music at this location. Every teacher is highly skilled, patient, very polite, and makes you feel like part of a family, as do the other students. Gordon Kennedy does voice lessons for three of my kids, and guitar for two of them. Needless to say, he's an expert at everything he does. I am amazed at how many instruments I have seen this man for you, and he can sing too! Lisa Rowe does voice lessons for my oldest daughter, and she is amazing. She teaches incredible technique and shares secrets from her own book that she has written. You can't go wrong with GK Music, whether you are a child, an adult, or at any skill level in your musical field of choice. All of the other teachers at this location who also been happy to jump in and help by giving pointers or praise to boost the children's confidence. Dreama has also come in to help during vocal lessons a few times, and has always been very friendly to my children. It's always a pleasure to hear her sing, she has an amazing voice, and the best personality you can hope for of someone helping your kids learn and grow. Thanks Gordon and GK folks for letting us be part of your musical family and everything you do for my kids.
