I was very young and naive when we joined the studio and was there 6 years from 2016 when they opened until 2021 when we left. We outgrew the studio politics but another side note is we appreciate the experience ad we did learn a lot of what not to do as well as what we did like going forward for what's best for our children. Which we realize does not fit every families list of priorities. Like I said do your research and find what's best for YOUR FAMILY. In a nutshell I do recommend the business but not long term most likely short term. 2.5 stars

I want to highlight my recent negative experiences with USA Dance Company, which operates at 1530 S…read moreGilbert Road in Gilbert, Arizona. I had been associated with the dance company for two years, and before now had long suffered a lack of transparency in billing, a bothersome demonstrated lack of organization concerning the scheduling of events and practices, and inconsistency in instruction due to several instructor resignations during my daughter's two year enrollment at USA. Things began to look up this August when a new, highly motivated instructor/assistant director came on board; the parents and students immediately felt her positive impact on instruction with hopes for organization to the chaos. Our children were learning new things and looked forward to each practice. This all changed at the end of August when this same instructor quit suddenly. Our experience with her has brought into focus our dissatisfaction with USA Dance Company. A group of us decided to explore other dance companies in the area. At each one (six in total), I saw greater transparency with billing and costs for supplies in 20 minutes than I ever saw at USA Dance Company. At USA Dance Company, I paid for a uniform in August ($350), I paid monthly tuition of $210, I paid a $300 team fee in June, I paid $420 in "fees" in September for future competitions, costumes and choreography, and I paid a special fee of $140 for trio choreography. A few of examples of a lack of transparency include the discrepancy between the Internet-listed team fee of $250 and the actual $300 team fee that we paid, this $300 'team fee' was unexplained (the other dance companies we toured either had a minimal fee or a larger fee which was later applied to competitions), parents paying different fees for the same dance hours (I paid $210, but there others paying $140 for the same instruction), as well as getting charged for a backpack that was supposedly optional (and we opted out). Since the aforementioned instructor quit, trio choreography practices were cancelled for September 9-14. General classes were cancelled or rearranged due to not enough instructors being available, never mind the fact that many of us had already arranged our lives and work schedules to meet the previously published class schedules. This pushed me, and others, over the edge and we severed our relationship with USA Dance Company. They have a "no refund" policy, so no matter that instruction was not available as originally arranged, no matter that the choreography we had contracted for was no longer available from the instructor we had been so impressed with, and no matter that the year's upcoming competitions and recitals have not been held; our money is in the possession of USA Dance Company and will not be refunded. I, along with others, did seek compensation for the uniform that we purchased. We reasonably wanted either a full refund of the uniform fee or the physical uniform that we had paid for. We have been given no indication that we will receive either. One parent was allegedly told by Tina Taylor-Schmidt, Director of Dance, that USA Dance Company would not be issuing a refund or items for the uniform fee nor for the costumes. I tried to verify with Marchel, billing administrator, via email on September 29 and again on October 3, but I have received no response. This stonewalling is not only annoying and unprofessional; it seems illegal. We paid for a physical product, the dance company received/will receive the physical product, and that physical product should, at the very least, be provided to those of us who paid for it. I will continue to pursue this matter, but in the meantime I felt it my duty to warn others of this business's shady operating practices. Once we made our intentions known (to seek out membership with a new dance company), the relationship with USA Dance Company turned sour. This is not the professional demeanor one should expect from a legitimate business venture.

Looking for a studio to get your child moving? Do not stop here. My child started here in 2021. Her…read morefirst year, she had a musical theatre teacher quit, a ballet teacher quit, and her Saturday class cancelled. I should have seen the red flags. But I met the dance teacher Rea who so graciously allowed my (then) 4 year old to dance up and join a class for 6+. Because of this dance teacher, my child joined the dance competition team. The team, the dance teacher, the parents have all been amazing. But the studio director Emma is the only reason why we will not be returning. Rehearsals, events, and shows never run on time and working parents are expected to get time off with short notice when Emma finally decides to send schedules out. Private lessons are constantly interrupted by volunteers that Emma has hired or even Emma herself. If you are unfortunate enough to be bumped to the back dance room, be prepared to have your child dance around props and costumes. She is also highly unprofessional, she asks her parent volunteers for far more than she should. Billing is hardly ever on time. This year she double charged my account for lessons that we were previously charged months prior. My emails and texts and stopping at the desk went unanswered. It wasn't until I told the front desk that I was not going to pay for tickets to an event, that Emma was now magically available. Instead of remaining professional and saying it was a clerical error, she chose to blame two other staff members who have nothing to do with billing accounts. And what really did it for us this year was when Emma told her older son to hide behind dance bags at a dance competition in a dressing room for girls only. Other studios complained about her son and many of us moms warned her, and she chose to try to use her daughter's bag and my child's bag for her son to hide. Since that incident she has become vindictive, even going as far as yelling at children that they will not dance at recital. Unfortunately even with a great dance teacher and great community amongst parents, we can no longer subject our child to Emma. Not when my child's is telling me she is scared of her.
