I signed my 2 daughters up for swim lessons here. I took my 8 & 10 year old to their first lesson…read moreand very quickly realized these lessons were for beginners/younger kids. I called the next morning to see if they'd be willing to work with me on a refund, or even use the money I paid ($162) towards my nieces gymnastics account. Linda was beyond rude, talked to me like I was stupid, and when I said my daughters knew swimming beyond what they were teaching them, she replied "if your daughters know how to swim, why did you sign them up for swim lessons?" She was not willing to work with me AT ALL so I'm out the $162 completely. I will never recommend this place to anyone, ever again. Amy (Altis) Schmitt

I organized having my daycare kids and son up together in the same class At the same time, bc…read morethey're close Enough in age and swim levels. However, we Missed the first few days due to a holiday and construction/getting lost. That was our fault. But, When when we arrived for lessons, they placed one of the kids in a different swim group with younger kids After they were in the water for no more than 2 minutes. When I questioned if he Could move with the other boys as we had scheduled, or if any accommodation could be made, the director told me that my son was placed with the other group bc he was determined the "weakest swimmer" among 5 other kids in group with his friends he was in. I knew that was a lie. They told me based their program off how many kids and Divvy it up between the 3 instructors. But that is not what I saw to be true of skill level or ability among the kids. She said they teach the same things and all kids learn the same in each group. she's done this 45 years. And the full "this is how we do it" speech. But when you pull a kid from the rest of the group within a minute of them being in the water, and you tell the Mom/caregiver at the end of lessons that the child was "weakest of the kids, and he needed work and was not listening" (which was not true) without highlighting any of his positive growth, you need to work on your skills with customers a And customer service is in definite growth opportunity. I also felt like the instructors could have used better discipline and communication techniques with the kids. They were often rigid and pushy. They do not talk with the parent/caregiver after lessons or give any type of update on the students' progress or areas to work on. Overall, their target market is daycare kids that they carpool from daycare center(s). If you need group swim lessons for your kid or your small group of daycare kids, I don't personally recommend this group for swim lessons.

I love this place. I don't write a lot of reviews, but I felt compelled to write this one…read more If you're looking to enroll your toddler in any sort of dance class; you should enroll here. I'm not a mom who is looking to get her kid into hard-core, serious, competitive dance (although they have the trophies to back that up, if that is what you're looking for). I'm just a mom who wanted a social environment for her toddler who loves music, and loves dancing around the house. We did the little 6-week summer classes, and we loved it. We do not have a lot of disposable income. At all. So anything I sign my kid up for, I have to really consider. There's a lot of things we can't afford, but re-enrolling for fall classes wasn't even a question. It may sound silly to say after just 6 classes, but this place already feels like home. Warm and inviting doesn't even begin to cover it. My daughter loves it. I love it. I had no idea I'd have such strong feelings about a dance company after 6 weeks, but here we are.

When a person chooses to run a facility like this, they are making a moral agreement to the…read morechildren that attend to have their best physical and mental interests at heart. Shelby Swartz, the owner of The Cheer Pitt did not get that memo. She will undoubtedly reply to this review by stating "I'm sorry we don't see that you have ever had an account with us", as she has done the other negative reviews. This reaction only shows her lack of professionalism and willingness to take accountability for the negative events that take place in the environment that she fosters. At her business, when committing to a team you have to sign a legally binding contract. However, I assure you, this contract is one sided and only adheres the guardian to the financial obligation, and not the owner to have an obligation to your child's best interest. During our time there we have witnessed parents making fun of parents, parents making fun of the owner, bullying, kids making fun of kids, parents making fun of kids, at least one coach high on cocaine while coaching (my daughter sprained her elbow during a class with him where he removed her spot without warning her), athletes getting hurt, the owner making fun of parents, the owner making fun of athletes, the owner speaking poorly of other gyms, binge drinking in front of athletes during "team bonding events", parents yelling at parents of other gyms, and name calling. Of all the practices I watched, there wasn't one that ended without a girl crying on my daughter's team. The owner places profit and her ego above the well being of the athletes and if anyone has the willingness to speak on the blatant ill behaviors witnessed, their athlete will be kicked out. Shelby constantly threatens parents and athletes to keep them quiet. She praises herself as being a leader and a mentor, yet has little to no concern for lower level athletes, or providing an accessible path for them to advance. She only focuses on how everyone can serve her and not how she can serve the athletes. The Cheer Pitt operates closer to a cult than a facility that fosters character in children. I recommend saving your money, or better yet choosing another of the 3 cheer gyms very close by that have a greater and more successful selection of teams and classes. I applaud the other people that were brave enough to come forward and speak on their negative experiences. I know from our experience at The Cheer Pitt that anyone with a true backbone and concern for the well being of the children, and not just the "leader", will be ridiculed and ostracized.

Johnson County Dance Center is truly a gem in the Kansas City area. From the moment you walk…read morethrough the doors, you can feel the energy, professionalism, and genuine care that goes into everything they do. The owner and teachers here are not only incredibly talented dancers, but also amazing teachers who know how to bring the best out of every student. Whether it's a little one in their very first dance class or a teen perfecting their competition routine, every dancer gets the right balance of encouragement, discipline, and fun. One of the things we love most about JCDC is the sense of community. It's not just about dance--it's about teamwork, confidence, and building lifelong friendships. You can tell the dancers here are proud to be part of this studio, and that says a lot. If you're looking for a studio where your child will be challenged, supported, and inspired all at once, Johnson County Dance Center is the place. They don't just teach dance, they build strong, confident kids who love what they're doing.

My daughter is in her 5th season with Johnson County Dance Center and it has become her home away…read morefrom home! I love that rehearsal and classes are during the week, which leaves the weekends for more family time...no 8 hour Saturday practice to work around. I did not grow up dancing so I went in blind, but the other parents and the teachers helped me to understand what is expected and how to navigate the competitive dance world. The teachers really focus on technique and not just trick after trick. I know my daughter is in good hands and I trust their judgement and guidance. If anyone is looking for a personal dance studio where you're more than just another face in the crowd I'd highly recommend JCDC!

No one mentioned this to us at all. We won't be coming back, and I don't recommend. JOCO parks has better classes, and they are more professional and affordable.
