Miss Theresa is an absolute troll witch.

I reiterated to her that I was in the right place and we were looking forward to this class. She continued being abrasive and giving zero guidance about how to "sign up" in the future if necessary. It was clear she just didn't want us there. After gathering my things and picking up my sobbing daughter she made a comment about me having an attitude and I told her to f*ck off. Wish I could give her zero stars. I have no idea why anyone would subject their child to this place.

If you want your daughter to be the best and most confident dancer she can be, DO.NOT.COME.HERE…read more From my experience, my daughter shows she doesn't want to dance anymore because of this awful place. First off, the owner/teacher of this place is so discouraging. She always finds ways to hurt the dancers whether it is their fault or not. She always makes harsh comments and she says they are "corrections" when they are just words that discourage dancers. Next, the place is awful. It is so tight in there and the bathroom is DISGUSTING. She has time to hurt her dancers but not to clean the place. She also shows favoritism towards other people as well. It is obvious. There is no explanation needed. She is VERY UNORGANIZED AND SLOPPY. If you want your daughter to dance and have technique, don't even come here. She makes her dances slutty and disgusting as well as inappropriate. May I add on during the pandemic, my daughter was in the non-competitive team and Miss Theresa didn't wear a mask. She only wore one when somebody came and knocked on the door. THIS PLACE NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY!!

The great reputation they have is well deserved and they really do care about each and every student they have. They alway have a smile on their faces and know everyone's name from the students to the parents. The recital is done so professional every single year and is held at the historic St George theatre. Which is by the way is also run by the same family. It has been been restored wonderfully and is a treasure of Staten Island. Pay them a visit ! The dancers have performed in Disney on Main Street. They have a summer camp as well. The prices are reasonable and might even be cheaper than some other studios.

Betting that a whole yoga center can not embark on the art of duplication, I will simply resign myself to attending Shakti classes whenever I am in NYC. Shakti is the place where I was first exposed to Yoga, and have therefore been spoiled. The teachers are clear and structure classes very well. The thing I love most of all are the small tips throughout the class that really help me in my poses and make my entire practice stronger. The space is large, and although the room can be quite full sometimes, I never feel as though the space or crowd limits my practice. The energy of Shakti is very peaceful and I typically leave feeling as though I have accomplished something, whether it be physical or mental. I know people who live in Manhattan and travel to Shakti for classes. Even if I am in NY just for the weekend, I make a point to take a class there. I really believe this studio teaches yoga the way it ought to be taught.
