Over the last two years we realized the values of this dance academy were harming my daughter's…read moremental health and wellness. We experienced racism and teachers who treated my child worse because she was not the typical size. At the end of last season, I watched a dance teacher give other dancers extra help, on the ground with them, but when my daughter and I asked, she simply said "she needs to practice at home on her own." After a serious injury, her teachers kept making her dance without her brace and ultimately asked her to not even come back to the team next year. There are horror stories of girls being allowed to pee in the studios because of their last name, of dancers being treated as "other" and being told they need to go on a diet. Since stopping dance I have seen my daughter happier and healthier than she has been in years!

I cannot say enough good things about Jean Taylor's Studio One. My daughter did one year of rec…read morethere when we moved from out of state and then did a year of the competition team. There aren't any crazy dance moms here. The owner and her family are down to earth along with all the parents, but still with an incredible high performance standard! Such an awesome, welcoming atmosphere with great people! We've since moved and my daughter still says how much she misses this studio. We cried when it was time to leave! Best studio in Davis County!

The kids learn songs about the continents, planets, days of the week, etc. The teachers even do parent-teacher conferences where they show you assessments with kindergarten standards just to give you and idea of what your child can do, at the same time they don't push too hard and still have fun crafts and activities perfect for little preschoolers. The teachers are really great: patient, caring, nice and fun. I am planning to have my next preschooler attend.

Everyone gets a chance to shine! And the shows are great quality! They also make sure each kid has a personalized experience that is perfect for them. When my daughter couldn't participate in the normal way for one production, they found another way for her to not only be included, but to feel valued. I love that they have an amazing homeschool program along with their after school classes. They also have private lessons and sewing classes! They make their own costumes and are great at teaching kids to sew through fun and professional projects. I'm grateful for the support they have given my daughter and am excited my second one is almost old enough to join in the fun!

They did an absolutely FANTASTIC job - performing with all their heart on a black-floored stage with the setting sun blaring at them in triple digit heat!! What a show!! They all danced and tumbled and even SANG!! They had lovely voices and performed contemporary tunes as well as some classics! I especially loved their Abba tribute! What a phenomenal show! The company also has a theater in town where they put on all sorts of plays and shows - and even major productions like Les Misérables and High School Musical! They also offer all kinds of dance lessons, singing and acting too. They even have aerial silks classes - which even my adult son has done a few times - he loves it as a good workout - he says it kicks his butt haha! Anytime I come to town to visit my son, I always try to catch anything this company is putting on - the owners are awesome people - they work hard and are so talented! Highly recommend shows or even fun classes anytime you're in the area!

I had an incredible experience at Murphy's Guitars in Bountiful and felt like I needed to share it…read more I drove over an hour from Coalville after getting some pretty discouraging news from another shop about my Gibson J-45. They told me the truss rod was maxed out and that I'd have to drop down to 11s, which honestly felt like a gut punch after everything I'd invested in that guitar. On a whim, I stopped into Murphy's since they're a Martin dealer and I wanted to try a D-28. Not only did they take the time to talk with me and let me play, but they were genuinely friendly, engaged, and clearly passionate about guitars and music. I didn't feel rushed or like a burden at all -- which is rare these days. When I mentioned my issue, they offered to take a look. The owner, Wes Dodson, personally stepped in and checked out my J-45. Within minutes, he did what the first shop didn't -- properly adjusted and freed up the truss rod, got it functioning again, and set the guitar up the way it should have been in the first place. He got my guitar playing perfectly with the 13s I wanted, with great action and feel. Total night-and-day difference. I can't say enough about the level of care, honesty, and skill I experienced here. These guys know what they're doing, and more importantly, they actually care. Murphy's Guitars has absolutely earned my business going forward. If you're anywhere in Utah and need a shop you can trust, this is the place.
