    Manager caused us to have a horrible experience. Decided not to go with this facility - will definitely look elsewhere.

    Instructors are good, however the owner treated me disrespectfully. Will definitely not return to this studio.

    I, along with Michele, am a licensed ZUMBA® instructor and avid fitness lover. I have been with…read moreEmm at Studio M and even before she opened up her own studio for 3.5 years. Emm is a truly passionate, dedicated person and cares about each and every person that walks into her studio. I can say this from personal experience as I have watched her over the past 3 years guide so many people to a healthier, happier life. Not only that, she constantly hosts charity events, special runs, and works with the Norwalk Hospital Foundation and Cancer Society, etc. to help raise money and awareness. I highly disagree with her moves being hard to follow, and in any case, she ALWAYS offers for people to stay after class to be helped as well as slowing down DURING class and counting out steps and INSTRUCTING the new choreography before even starting the new songs. That being said, everyone has their own style, you may not fit well with a certain person's zumba style, and may totally groove with another person. Everyone has a right to their opinions, BUT remember, your workout is what YOU make of it. Even in some fitness classes that I personally did not love myself, you can always get a good sweat in if you push yourself. You don't have to love every class you take, and thats ok! I'm just happy to be part of such a caring and genuine community of people at Studio M, at the end of the day that's what matters most. Thank you Emm for showing us that! Zumba has become such a phenomenon and has shown us all how a little bit of dancing can help the world become a happier place. Let's all stop being so negative and seeing the good that truly lies within us. **Zumba Love** :)

    The other reviews are funny! Perhaps they are Emm's personal friends. She caters to a small…read moregroup of women who are in her 'clique', and then ignores the rest of the crowd. She is NOT encouraging, but instead makes you feel like you're an idiot if you can't follow her crazy moves. She's not flexible nor does she offer deals to the most loyal of customers. Now, there are other instructors there who are absolutely wonderful...Naomi, Jimmy, Stephanie to name a few. They rock. Totally rock. But stay away from Emm's classes if you go. There are other Zumba fitness studios in town, and well worth visiting before heading to Studio M.

    CT Theater Dance is a special, family-oriented studio with an exceptional ballet training program…read moreas well as amazing dance instruction in other genres including jazz, lyrical, contemporary, tap, hip hop and musical theater. We have 3 daughters (ages 12, 10 & 5) and this is our 8th year dancing at CTD. Over the years, we have seen significant improvements in their technique, stage presence, performance abilities, and self-confidence. In addition to their regular ballet training, they are also on a Competition Team performing various genres in front of a panel of judges. Being part of the team has been an educational, rewarding and a fun experience. The owner and founder, Michelle Sperry, has created a loving, positive, and nurturing environment for all dancers to learn and grow in the performing arts through focus and discipline. Under Michelle's vision and direction, CTD offers dancers many opportunities to perform in front of audiences at fun community events including Slice of Saugatuck in Westport, Halloween Flash Mob in Norwalk/Westport and Stew Leonard's Holiday Tree Lighting. Dancers also perform in CTD's annual holiday show The Nutcracker and the newest original spring ballet Bella & The Magic Tea Pot. With CTD's staff of professional teachers, dancers of all levels continue to thrive and enhance their performing and technical abilities through excellent choreography and direction. If you're looking for a supportive, diverse, and challenging environment for your dancer, then this studio is for you!

My daughter who is 7 has been dancing since we she was 3, and has come very far thanks to owner Michelle Sperry and her team. This year Michelle has introduced Connecticut theater Ballet for those interested in developing their skill for performing arts which is very exciting! The children not only perform in annual shows but also invited to perform at other local events like West Rocks middle Schools epic Elf play and political gatherings to name a couple. Each student plays a part in the annual Nutcracker to get us all into the holiday spirit. This studio specializes in ballet, an art of precision and exactness per the American Academy Ballet, Michelle invests many hours to ensure the curriculum supports just that. Being a ballerina in the Boston Ballet previously affords the exposure to a network of elite dancers and teachers to enhance the talent of each and every ballerina. So if you are looking for a high quality, dedicated and family oriented dance experience for your child of any age it's worth the look, you will not be disappointed. Michelle is a wonderful person and friend and is great role model for girls growing up in a world filled with adversity and complexity, she focuses on the basics as a foundation and stays grounded in her principles always!!!

    The worst decision I've made so far in the past 3 years of my daughter's life was switching her…read morefrom her previous ballet class to her current ballet class at flashpointe dance (because of online reviews). I was just told that she is not welcome to join in the dance recital after investing in the class for 8 months, paying for the recital costume/recital photos and her time! Flashpointe dance fed into every reason why my family encouraged me not to put my daughter in ballet. They expect perfect 3 year olds. My 3 year old ran in class and was recently kicked out of class twice. Then i received an email that she was a danger to other kids and to herself for running so she was asked not to participate in the final recital. No offers to give private lessons, no flexibility and no compassion. My 3 year old is really upset and they have crushed her spirit and mine. To make things worse, grandparents bought plane tickets to come and see this recital. She could not make the rehearsal due to a vacation we planned 6 months ago. They just told us about the rehearsal just a few weeks ago!!! This place is incredibly disorganized, unprofessional and their expectations for 3 year olds is frankly ridiculous. Flashpointe dance- you may brag to everyone that you have a dancer on a major television show but you could care less about my 3 year old or any other imperfect 3 year old who loves to dance. Despite the way you treated my daughter, she still loves to dance and we will find a friendlier, less intense environment.

    Great teachers and staff. My daughter has been on the competition team for 4 years now. She…read moreconsiders this school her second family and couldn't love it anymore.
