I like that the front desk staff communicate well with the parents, and I like that the school is very careful about how the dancers behave in the common area. This is beside the fact that my daughter loves being taught by the instructors that she has! She never complains about going to practice and she enjoys everything that she is learning. This is not the case with every other dance studio she's been to. This Academy has reasonable costs and I am very excited to see the first recital.

Dance FX San Marcos & Vista…read more Our family has had a positive experience taking classes and participating on the competition team at Dance FX. Our children have been dancing for about 8 years and have taken classes from many local North County dance studios. We travel out of our way for the quality technique instruction from their staff. The studios are clean and maintained. They have viewing windows into the studios and live video feeds on the lobby tvs to watch the classes. The office manager, Ms Olivia, is welcoming and answers questions promptly. Ms Brenda and Mr Anthony run the competition team there. Their communication and scheduling is clear and that is important to parents when planning competitions, travel and family schedules. Their dancers advance and join High School Dance Teams at San Marcos, Mission Vista, Vista, Rancho Buena Vista, Mission Hills, El Camino, Carlsbad, San Pasqual and Classical Academy High School to name a few. We are grateful to Mr Anthony for his dedication to the children and their dance education. He has worked with local families who were abandoned by another local studio to help them re-register for competitions, offer his studio for rehearsals, and provide support to parents who need guidance in the dance competition world. We can't say enough good things about him!!

The faculty that has been assembled here are all highly sought after. Many of them are asked to teach seminars across the country and even overseas. They offer a variety of dance disciplines including classical ballet, hip hop, jazz, tap and contemporary. Every winter, the studio presents one of the finest "Nutcracker" ballet's performed by students. The time and energy that the staff and owners put into this performance is astounding. It allows the students to experience the big stage with all the lights and effects that are mostly reserved for professional artists. Finally, you know your child will be getting a strong performing arts experience here when they audition for national summer intensive programs such as the American Ballet Theatre, Joffrey and the School of American Ballet, to name just a few, and are accepted time and time again. My daughter auditioned for the first time last year. We didn't expect anything going into this process being our first try. However, the acceptances came rolling in one after the other. The process continues this year with similar results. I couldn't be happier to have chosen this studio for my daughter. She has gained physical strength, agility and grace through the various classes she has taken. More importantly It has increased her self esteem and confidence to a whole new level. My daughter has found a passion for dance that she will carry forever. I have since enrolled my younger daughter and son for classes. They too have gained much since enrolling. If any of the previous posts have turned you off to this studio, I suggest you take a personal look for yourself. You'll be glad you did.

EDC is a great environment for those who are passionate about dance at any age! Its not about being the most technical, having the perfect look, or the most money - it IS about love of dance, being able to take instruction, show respect, and want to work and grow! EDC has found such a great mix of being a warm/welcoming studio for all levels AND providing top notch instruction and opportunities for the most ambitious/experienced ones! We have been with 4 total studios in North County and all have been wonderful (except for one - which I will not name, but we stayed less than 1 year, as we did not feel welcomed at all - after almost a full year of attending classes every week twice a week, the same check in lady had no clue who my daughter was). If I could give myself advice when starting this dance journey...find and stick with the studio that supports the vision/future you and your dancer are working towards...my daughter and I are pretty grounded when it comes to our expectations from all of this, but everyone is in it for different reasons and because of that one of the challenges as a parent is managing feelings of inequality/jealousy, or being left out/left behind - its helped me grow as a mom! It starts at home - work can be done on teaching your child to be an attentive student, set attainable goals, but dream big, and to compare themselves not to one another but to their last performance. Lastly, the EDC staff is involved in the industry professionally and is well connected for unique opportunities! They are bringing in top notch master instructors and choreographers, they attend a great mix of competitions and conventions - building confidence while keeping them humble!
