We have made an entire dance family and couldn't be more thrilled. Highly recommend this dance studio 100 percent !

I asked one of my Reformer Pilates instructors about a place I could get hip hop or k pop dance lessons and he mentioned this place to me. Fast forward a few more weeks, I found a South African ampiano style groove class happening here and signed up for the class! This dance class isn't always offered so when I saw it happening here, I immediately jumped for it. The studio itself is tucked into a row of office like suites and there was a few more dance rooms here. Easy parking here. Our room got the job done as there were mirrors and cool art painted on one wall. I guess my only gripe is that the room was kind of small for the amount of people signed up for the class and I didn't love the overhead fluorescent style light. The room was pretty hot but granted we were all moving quite a bit. And there was a huge fan in the room, which was really nice. I'd definitely come back to take another class here and there are some serious dancers that come thru here, I enjoyed my experience here!

Dancers used the dining room as their dressing area, with no privacy afforded to them (BTW is it sanitary to have dancers' personal items all over commercial eating areas?). Dads were allowed in the changing areas, too. The dancers were required to haul their rented costumes on foot to and from the studio, next to the busy McKellips road with no supervision from the studio. There was nowhere to park, and we still had to pay our recital fees and admission fees to sit out in the elements. My kid was freezing cold. I paid for a professional recital. I had reasonable expectations that were not met. Where did my money go if we didn't have to pay for an auditorium? The studio is not being maintained. It's falling apart and it is filthy. The only good thing there is Beverly. I wish she'd open her own studio.

Emma, the owner, loves these kids and goes above and beyond for them every chance she gets. I've never seen someone more committed to kids as she is. I consider myself to be a protective parent and I trust Emma and the staff with my kids wholeheartedly. Throughout 2020 they have worked tirelessly to put safe systems and procedures in place to continue providing kids with opportunities to safely rehearse and even perform on stage! Following all city / county / state guidelines and mandates. Even going beyond mandated guidelines when it made it safer for the kids, their families, and staff. Studio 3 is my daughter's "home away from home" many staff and students have become family to her.

In response to Sandra's review, I was at the understudy show as a parent and have a completely…read moredifferent take. The kids loved that the director came in and the actor whose line they took was completely aware because the director came in at the time the usual actor does. The actor then came in from a completely different spot. I would imagine the rest of the cast was not uneasy but instead trying hard not to laugh. These kids had begged the director to do the whole part and he said no. This quick change was done in response to their begging. The second scene was also a quick dance in a circle with other cast members and was not dangerous. It was just enough for the audience to realize it was a joke and then they left. My daughter loved these two parts that were done for the understudy show and the kids realize anything can happen. The kids don't necessarily get a full run through but that happens at most places with understudies. Sometimes you get to have a run through but not always. The lifts were actually done by a lot of the same cast. One actor actually came in just for the lift because he did it when he was his main role. The track was definitely legally purchased when they bought the rights. The play stops and gos with music because that is what it does. There was nothing wrong with this performance and my daughter and I loved it

They will also refuse to make their own mistakes right. My son was berated and teased by the teachers kid and I find it hard to believe no one noticed. Your child will not go far or make true friendships here unless they are Morman. It's run as a "not for profit business" by and for the LDS church and every person working there is an unpaid volunteer from the church. I strongly advise taking your kid anywhere else.

They also receive performing arts grants, and all of their office staff are volunteers. When they moved their studio, they asked parents to do that for them (rather than paying a moving company like you and I do), and they posted a wish list of pricey items they wanted parents to buy and donate to them for their fancy new location. So no taxes, free grants, free labor, crap tons of tuition dollars, enrollment fees, ticket sales, costume mark-ups, and stage parent donations etc... Someone said to me, "the studio is a non-profit, so we really ask the parents to step up and volunteer." The studio doesn't pay taxes, enjoys free grants from those who do pay taxes, doesn't pay half of their workforce, and is therefore in need of more free labor? What a genius business model. Sign me up!

The entire dance studio is run down and has a lot of cosmetic and functional problems. Floors are peeling up, transitions in doorways are missing or sticking up, and paint is chipped everywhere. There is even a spot in the floor in one of the dance rooms that looks like it is sinking and moldy. The windows to see in the dance rooms are high and standing at them is difficult because the hallways are very small. The owner also teaches classes and taught my daughters class. She ALWAYS started late and ended early. I actually started keeping track because I felt like we were being jipped in time. The class was supposed to be an hour long and every single time it was only about 30 minutes which is frustrating because I am paying for an hour. Every class was the exact same routine and if that meant it ended early because there were not a lot of kids, then that is what happened. My daughter was by herself once and there was no 1 on 1 teaching, it was the same routine of play this song and do this song. The teacher also liked to do a choreographed dance and read her notes in her book and dance to the song, but not actually teach it to the kids. So she watched herself in the mirror and did the dance while these poor little kids tried to follow along. My daughter loves dancing and wanted to do gymnastics too so we found this dance studio that did tumbling as part of the class. She loved that part of the class so we decided to leave and pursue gymnastics. It was a good out to leave and I didn't care that we had some makeup classes still. I do know they have a groupon and that's how a lot of people found out about this place. I was not aware of the groupon which would have saved me $30 a month.
