You can find information online…read moreabout how they structure their programs and you are going to form your own opinion on whether or not you think its a good value. Having been going to FADS Katy for 4 months, and having gone to as many group classes as I can attend, my perspective has changed as I have learned more about ballroom dancing. When it comes to things we are not familiar with, beginners often over estimate their knowledge and skill level, and this is the problem with Yelp in general (crowd sourcing reviews and ratings to people who are generally not knowledgeable, or experts, about what they are talking about). At first I questioned the push for learning dances I had no initial interest in. But as I have gotten better at dancing in general, without knowing it, learning other dances besides the ones that I wanted to focus on has given me better control of my body, and understanding of the movements required to move across the dance floor. So while you may not be practicing the dance you want to specifically get better at, you become a better dancer, which makes it easier to learn, retain, and master any dance you focus on. The instructors and staff at FADS Katy are skilled at what they do, and if you put in the effort to learn and remember what they teach you, they will respond in kind, pushing you to become better at what you want to learn, reaching whatever goals you have. Their goals may or may not always align with yours, its a business. It is up to you to know what is your long term goal. But know that the path you think you want/need to take may not be the best way to get there. Luckily, its really only the introductory program where they show you the basics of the main dances. Once you complete that course, you get to choose what it is you want to focus on. For country dancing I recommending learning Two Step, Polka, and the Country Waltz. For latin dancing I recommend learning Salsa, Merengue, Rumba, and possibly Bachata. This is Texas after all. Every other Friday is a dance party with free food and booze for students and their guests. Get your party on.

It's not a very big space, but good enough for the students and waiting parents.

Mrs. Hitt has been my daughter's teacher since she first started and my daughter admires Mrs. Hitt very much. She refuses to go to any other dance school or teacher because she has so much love and respect for her ABS teacher. Recitals are well organized and very memorable. There are fees that come with it such as the costume fee, recital fee, and separate tickets fee. I don't find it a problem and they handle the entire recital ordeal very well.

Ugh AB required us to buy a specific costume when the dance moves they taught my kids were so FUFU & frilly! We quit before the recital and they didnt let us cancel the costume even at 5 month till!! Jerks! Then they send us an email (junk mail) a week to pick it up or it will be donated? WTF! Jerks again! My kids could never remember what they learned. All they could remember was to prance around, like skipping and wave their hands like a bird. Sorry but their type of dance is so FUFU-FIFI THAT I COULDNT STOP LAUGHING! No real talent needed lol!

Not to start off a review by venting, but a little personal touch on why I'm so upset right now…read moremight go a long way in understanding why this is a one star review. I have personally been going through quite a bit lately that has led me to purposefully drag myself out of my apartment and channel my life frustrations into healthy activities and ventures. Between travel, trying to find a cat to adopt, and other every day oddities, I decided that I wanted to get back into an old hobby of mine: dancing. What could go wrong, right? I took ballet at a young age and was encouraged to stop, as I looked like a "flat piece of cardboard flapping in the breeze." When I got older, I dabbled in dance in high school, and went on to become a professional mascot for some years. Dancing isn't something that I find hard, and many routines, I am able to easily memorize, and have a lot of fun with. But, you know, I haven't learned an actual serious routine in human-form in nearly 7 years. Relevant. Today, I ventured to SoReal after being advised by Yelp that this would be a great place for "beginners" to come and "learn how to dance." Let me advise you: there was no learning HOW to dance, rather... after 10 minutes of the class, at least 10 eight-counts were shoved down my throat and I realized, I am being taught A dance. One must learn to dance before being taught an actual dance. So, you know, I took my cardboard-flapping body and left the studio mid-class. This wouldn't have happened if SoReal did a few items off the basic customer service checklist. First of all, when I arrived at 4:30 pm for a 5:00 pm class (early to ask questions, get info, etc.) the door was locked and a very bland young man answered the door. He let me in, and was not welcoming or cheerful or anything at all. I was obviously uneasy and frankly, a little shy, to be out doing something so bold after having spent the last few months hiding under a Calvin Klein comforter, downing margarita wine, while binge watching Grey's Anatomy. Despite my personal issues, kindness is a universal language that this man was obviously not fluent in. He did nothing to sell the studio or class to me, not phased whether I stayed or went. He did assure me that anyone attending this class would likely be their first class, and that you don't need any prior knowledge of dancing to attend. So, I went with it. There were about 10 people in my class, none of whom were very friendly. They stayed mostly to themselves during the warm up and stretching, which was fine by me. But the instructor was a very heavy-set young lady who seemed to be gasping for air after the set of stretches. Then, she played us a clip of the song we'd be learning the choreography to, and within seconds, she was shouting, "And then you do this! This! And this!" First of all, have you ever heard of an 8-count? Do you know how to break it down for us "beginners?" And when you picked on the little Asian guy in the class for adding his own style to a move, did you mean to insult him? I had all these questions streaming through my head as the instructor sped up the pace on a choreography that was FAR from beginner. We didn't practice with music through any of this. I finally gave up about 20 minutes in the class. I wasn't enjoying myself. It wasn't a beginner choreography (or even a good choreography at that). No one was at the front desk when I left, so I was unable to get a refund on my lousy $12. Basically, I left here feeling like I paid $12 to feel even more badly about myself. Thanks SoReal for keepin' it real.

I am mixed chinese(mother) /polynesian (father) and take HEAVILY after my dad so regardless of me being able to understand the instructor and other students around me during Jazz Fusion , I was given the cold shoulder and given so many side eyes. Was not acknowledged until very end of class and was humiliating as is. Environment was not welcoming at all so unless you're Asian presenting I recommend every other class other than jazz fusion! Currently scared to try ballroom with this studio for this very reason, so for now I will be staying with ONLY kpop classes!

Our teacher was Sevtlana, We decided to try something new…read moreand this was a choice, we had four lessons Our teacher was amazing, sweet and very knowlagable, encouraging and gave us a lot of tips. No complaints out of her My biggest problem is, that this is one single dance room, one single spot. Size of a small hall. So you are constantly moving avoiding hitting someone. Which is fine and all. Except no one is learning with you, everyone doing something different. Even though your lesson is private, it is only due to the fact that the teacher is teaching you. People sit and watch, or dance around you. Great challenge except if your a nervous bug like me. Also, since it is one room, there is one radio. People are constantly fighting over it and it fustruating. It is my largest complaint. The radio, the one room. Look I want to learn how to dance to this, we got the steps now lets dance to it You get maybe 10seconds in before someone comes and jumps on the radio and changes it to what ever they please. I really wish, this place was at least split into two. Something different. I would really like to continue but the price is a bit steep, 120 a lesson for two that is 40minutes. I loved my teacher, she was great, hated the setup, hated that its one room for everyone to see and move dance around you trying not to bump. Loath that it was one room with a horrible game of "that's mine!!" Song on, let it finish don't immediately come running to change it. Is fun, refreshing. I got my certificate from groupon, just be prepared Oh! Yes if you have a large living room, and you rather learn your basics off youtube. You can. But! Its going out, having an instructor tell you how to improve, specifically point out the flaws and correct them. To make you that much more comfortable with dancing. It's having someone answer your questions.
