In addition to…read moreher therapy, BDA has taught her how to be self aware of her body and how she moves around others. She has learned to be apart of a team in a supportive inclusive environment. BDA has a motto of kindness first and it really shows in my childs smile and the friends she has made. The moms are really encouraging of each other and their dancers. Miss Jasmine and her team has shown nothing but kindness and compassion for the dancers and the children's dreams of creativity and expression through dance. It really feels like and extended family.

I can't say enough about their curriculum and teachers who are forming our babies into their most creative, compassionate, intelligent, confident selves! The program is so organized, well thought out and fun! I was blown away by the program when i had the opportunity to sit in on my daughter's class! All of the preschoolers are just thriving! Keep changing the lives of the children of this community BDA and KeKay! I can't wait for my baby girl to continue to learn with KeKay and one day join the dance studio too!!!!

Through my teaching I will always do my best to pass on my love of the arts to the future generations.

There is no where else she'd rather be! Excellent ballet instruction by Ms. Adelle and Ms. Heidi. She also takes tap, jazz, and contemporary. My daughter would take more classes like hip hop and lyrical if we had more time. This is the only dance studio in Williamsburg that presents a professional performance of the Nutcracker Ballet in Williamsburg. It is wonderful. The studio also has a June recital, and does many community performances both during Nutcracker season and during June recital time. This studio hasn't done competitive dancing at least since my daughter has been here - for that I am very thankful! The dancers as well as the parents are all very friendly and supportive, it's just a good group of folks to be around!

Ownership changed about a year ago, since then communication with parents from the owner has been…read morevery lacking and when she does communicate it comes off as rude. Concern from the owner does not appear to be about the customers/ kids but about money. The owner owns another studio in Richmond along with the two Power House Dance studios and she doesn't seem to be able to keep up with the necessary tasks of running a service based business. Parents consistently are given excuses as to why things are subpar while still not answering legitimate questions. Also, you will be nickle and dimed for everything they can get from you. We have been a part of other studios in the past and I can say that this one is run very poorly. Strongly recommend going elsewhere.

When we moved to the Prince George area I called around to many schools in the area. Jennifer was…read morethe first to call me back. The kids here enjoy a bully free zone. They are able to dance and never worry about being bullied. The instructors here are all great.

This place is a nightmare- their competition dancers are fine, but the rest they couldn't care less…read moreabout. Their tap classes are a joke, utilizing the same moves from Kinderdance to advanced. Their gymnastics classes don't even get to flips, just cartwheels, and their jazz is average. Ballet is good. Her business is kept afloat by a few key families which you'll notice during their end of year recital because they are in 6-8 dances a piece. There is a heavy focus on costumes, props, and wandering around the stage rather than ACTUAL dancing, and their recital gets very boring very quickly. But that's just the icing on the cake- don't plan to use your card to pay for anything besides the classes- almost everything is cash only. Their teachers play favorites, and those that didn't departed abruptly in the middle of the year surrounding a few rumors that were less than kind about the owner. Regardless as to the truth of said rumors, it is quite obvious that there is a LOT of drama going on and it is significantly, (and detrimentally), affecting her business. There are several costs at various times that crop up out of nowhere- can't be in the parade unless the OUTER layer says Dance Kraze, have to wear the right colored tights (and if your class has two outfits, it's different colors for each), super expensive & poor quality pictures, etc etc. The end of the season is BRUTAL in unexpected expenses, so just be prepared. It's also run through her friends and family, which probably has a lot to do with the expense. With perhaps one exception (Thank you Jason), her event staff is indescribably rude and disrespectful, in addition to being inconsistent. Gods forbid you say anything about it, because they will get in your face and try to power play you to get you to cower in submission and retreat. Or ignore you. Or try to walk through you. Not a place I will ever be returning to. And yet the biggest problem is the fact that the recital was held in a school with LIVE CAMERAS and there were girls CHANGING IN THE HALLWAYS WHO WERE NOT TOLD, DESPITE the fact that the dance studio was informed. Well beyond acceptable to me. We will most DEFINITELY not be returning next year.

My friend lead a class here today. She rented out the space. I had a great time! It seems like…read morethere was a divider, so the space could be much bigger if needed. We were a group of about 20 dancers, and while it was packed, we still had our own space. It got hot pretty quickly, but thankfully there were fans that cooled us down. Do you know that smells kind of linger in the small space. It seems like an older building and smells a little like one, but you get used to the smell quickly. Since it's intimate, you can smell other folks too (but that isn't the venue's fault). They have one gender, neutral bathroom. I love that they have a water fountain. They also have plenty of free parking spots outside. It's a pretty casual space. The other side of the dividers seem to have more natural lighting and more mirrors. Our side had a smaller mirror. I had a great time dancing at the studio.

Kim and her team of teachers are awesome! My daughter loves it! They even have an adult class and mother/daughter dance in the recital! I am so glad that we decided to try this new studio. The waiting area is large and has windows to see into the dance studio to watch the dancers. The studio space is big too. The class lengths are longer than what I've seen at the other studio we go to which I like because you seem to get more for your money. We look forward to many years at this dance studio to come!
