The recital for rhythm and rhyme was small enough to not intimidate but had all the bells and whistles of a big show. My 3 year old was in heaven! The teachers here are great and helped her overcome her initial shyness. They use music that really appealed to the kids and had props that any little girl would adore. I'm so happy we found this dance studio!

I rarely leave reviews, but this situation warrants serious attention…read more On a Friday, that too on Good Friday, at approximately 2 PM--during normal business hours--vehicles parked for no more than 30 minutes in spots facing Spring Creek and Independence were aggressively towed. This occurred despite the fact that the studio itself appeared inactive at the time, with no visible customer activity and ample parking available directly in front of its entrance. From a reasonable and community-oriented perspective, this enforcement appears excessive and disproportionate. Parking policies are understandable when they serve a legitimate business need--such as ensuring access for paying customers. However, enforcing towing under these circumstances, where there was no apparent demand or obstruction, raises concerns about fairness, proportionality, and good faith. Businesses operate within communities, and with that comes a level of responsibility to act reasonably--not punitively--especially when no harm or inconvenience is being caused. Towing a vehicle within such a short window, absent clear necessity, creates the impression of predatory enforcement rather than responsible property management. If this is indeed standard practice, it would be advisable for the studio to: * Ensure clear, prominent, and unambiguous signage * Allow a reasonable grace period * Exercise discretion based on actual parking demand Actions like these don't just inconvenience individuals--they erode trust within the broader community. I strongly urge management to reconsider how these policies are implemented. A business thrives not just on rules, but on fairness, judgment, and respect for the community it serves.

My daughter has been attending Studio 3 for over a year now and she loves it....we love it!! After…read morea year in another studio in Plano she told me she no longer wanted to dance. Truth be told my heart was broken! She constantly danced around the house but she was bored at the other studio! I am so glad she decided to give Studio 3 a chance because she has been so much happier there! In fact so much happier that she is going from one class a week to four this next year and here's why: Studio 3 breaks up their classes into shorter classes so you can build your own perfect class schedule! Instead of only having the choice to start out with a typical hour class of ballet and tap you can build the perfect schedule for your child. In addition the cost is considerably lower than a lot of studios so my daughter doesn't have to pick just one class due to cost!!! For us it has been the perfect balance! My daughter can experience a variety of classes at an affordable cost!! They also offer a performance team for those who are just a bit too young for company! When she danced in Arlington years ago they did a lot of community performances which we loved! After calling around in Plano, many studios reserve all community performances for their company! I love that at Studio 3 there is a choice for those who want to do more performances than one recital per year! Studio 3 has been a gem for us! My daughter is happy and comfortable there! The teachers are wonderful and the owner has a heart of gold! If you are looking for a studio I highly encourage you to sign your children up for the free trial classes! You won't go anywhere else once you do!

Everything is perfect. We love the classes. We love the instructors. Our babies feel happyread more

If I could give this studio more stars I would! We were at the studio for a year and it was the…read morebest year of my kids lives! My son has ADHD and they not only embraced him, but develped his technique and he thrived! My daughter is very young and only did the recreation program, but all of the teachers (especially Tammy and cooper) were absolutely amazing! Because of DI both of my kids are way above their age level in all genres from just one year of dancing there. The staff is extremely professional, and the owner is just so on top of everything at the studio. The best part of the studio is that none of the teachers or staff (Including the owner) get involved with ANY of the drama at the studio. They place the kids where they will do the best in technique and maturity wise. The only reason why we left is because we moved out of state, however we are going back every year for some of the conventions they participate in so we have the chance to dance with them. They care about molding your dancer into a professional dancer, not just a competitive dancer who stops dancing at 18 when they age out of competitions. They work with the seniors in getting them into the right collages and help them earn scholarships to pay for tuition. The owner and staff are well connected as well to get your foot in the door if you want to go more towards the entertainment industry. The ballet program is top notch with dancers that get into the most prestigious dance schools. (They have placed at least 3 dancers at Juilliard last year). They also have great adult ballet, tap, and hop hop classes that are so much fun! If you have the opportunity to go to DI do it! It was the best decision for our whole family made in dance we have ever made.

Although she was a high school junior she was warmly welcomed into her new family of tiny dancers with stars in their eyes, bun-heads with amazing technique and well-rounded dancers trained in a wide variety of dance styles.

So much so she auditioned for DIPAC's pre-pro, The Thriving Artist Project, and has been growing exponentially with training from some of the best faculty and guest artists in the industry.

So many dance schools have very competitive environments, but Gotta Dance is a community of students, teachers, and parents that truly love dance and the joy it brings!

Today, two siblings were coughing, sneezing, and had runny noses throughout the class and staff allowed them to remain inside with everyone else. I asked the mother if her children are sick and she said "YES." Had any of the staff cared enough for the well-being of the children in class, they would have also asked the mother this question and told her to take her children home. If there are no makeups, then the studio should be proactive about protecting the health of the other children and enforcing clear policies on illness. My child's well-being comes first, and I can't continue attending a place that doesn't take that seriously.

But I feel it would be irresponsible to stay silent about the studio owner's unacceptable conduct. He's fun and charming with parents, seriously he is incredible at building rapport, but that facade shifts behind closed doors. I only ever met him in person once, and it was when he barged into a teacher's class to humiliate a student who was no older than 10. I don't recall what it was about, but he interrupted the entire class to shame her and it was uncomfortable to say the least. She just about cried, and because he was the studio owner, no one stood up for her. If that wasn't bad enough, he found my Instagram and was being pushy and trying to negotiate my boundaries with me. The dance world is small and word gets around quick. I was submissive toward him and feared being blacklisted or insulted if I spoke up. but now that I have a kid I feel angered knowing kids were alone with this man. I would never, and I mean NEVER bring my child here. To advertise qualities like character on your studio signage only to switch up like this the moment he gets students alone like this repeatedly...it's a major conflict of interest.

I knew of Fenton…read moreseveral years back when I was out of High School but just never attended any classes at his studio. Fast forward to early Spring 2023 when I decided to bring my daughter here to take classes. The "vibe" grew with her immediately and she was asked about performing in their upcoming recital. She then decided to audition for FTROOP that Summer and made their Teens team. So many amazing Hip Hop instructors here! Getting to know everyone each time we walk through the doors has been such a blessing and one big dance family. I have had a blast taking Adult classes with Fenton and other instructors as well. My daughter loved being on FTroop Teens so much, she auditioned again for 2024 & is currently on Seniors team. This studio offers rentals if you need a room for lessons or to practice. Call to inquire and speak with Kristin. Summer camps and intensives are offered and just added, was the Winter camp.
