Each class will actually reflect its level unlike studios who claim to be beginner but are way too fast paced making you leave feeling defeated. Best tap teachers in town! (Adult tap is really rare so it brings me so much joy to see they offer two levels.) They hire a lot of Rockettes so you know and feel you are getting quality training. Any sub you ever get always has incredible talents. I don't know of any other studio as peaceful and friendly. You can feel there's 100% no pressure and your training is superb. I drive 30-45 minutes to get here and it would be worth the drive for over an hour. I have mostly taken ballet with Laura (who is AMAZING) and tap with Joanna (iconic.) They both make class so fun and come up with the best choreography and music to dance to. I also took tap privates with Brittany who subs from time to time and is SO talented it amazes me. I'm going to miss this studio and my teachers so much.

So, with the membership paid, drop in classes costs an additional $2-$5 per class. No one should complain because of the cheap membership to begin with. Currently offering: Cycling Yoga Core Training Tae Kwon Do karate Artistic Motion Dance Gym with weights Beach volleyball area From the website: The 24,000-square-foot facility includes a fitness room with cardio equipment (treadmills, bikes, ellipticals), a weight room, locker room and showers, two classrooms which can be rented, concession stand and a 12,000-square-foot wood floor gymnasium that can be divided into two side-by-side high school courts. It seems that after school programs are also available. A lot of children flock here for good reason--there are a lot of youth programs here. I am thrilled to live in a place where such options exist. This really makes joining a fitness facility affordable, and for people like me, who are nomads and not around a lot, joining a facility like this really makes good sense.

    Decent gym for the money. Has a great mix of cardio machines, all brand new. The weight room I…read morewould not recommend to the more heavy lifting kinda group but is good for those doing resistance training. Don't expect trainers but there are group courses, such as Zumba, held through out the week. Finally, the basketball courts are top notch.

    Legal action is being considered against PEDC regarding the withholding of competition…read morescholarships, as well as a request for transparency into the required use of a group booking code tied to a mandatory cruise. The cruise price using the required group code was at or above the rates available to the public. This type of booking can result in "tour conductor credits." What were these credits used for? We and other parents would certainly like to know. When questioning PEDC we received no response. We did not see the studio owners much during the cruise and only saw them out of their cabin suite or at a private beach villa. Individuals seeking additional information or wishing to share relevant details may contact us via the pedclawsuit website. We felt there was toxic ownership and strongly recommend Ace Dance Project for a healthier environment for your dancer to learn and flourish. Google "red flags for dance studios" -- in our opinion, PEDC checks nearly every box. The teachers mean well, but we found ownership to be extremely difficult to work with. Scholarships earned through entries paid for by dancers were withheld. In the words of Jim Hollborn, they had to "stop the bleeding." Even that was not enough, and a significant portion of their competitive team left to find studios who appreciate and respect them.

    PEDC "MAYBE YOU SHOULD BE A MORE INVOLVED FATHER" This is…read morewhat was told to my husband when we were trying to find out information on their spring show. I'll give some background. My husband works at home, at the time I didn't. I would leave the house at 6 am and get home around 7 pm. My husband gets the kids up and ready for school, takes them to school and picks them up from school. He would also take each of the two kids back and forth to different events and practice sessions they have, often on the same night. On off days, I car pool as well. It's how our family functions, my husband does more than most people in general! Neither of us ever sit in the waiting room watching the 1980's quality TV with screens so small you can't tell which child is your own while other kids run amuck. I received a text that the cheer class didn't have class the Thursday prior to recital. I called PEDC to see if our daughters other class was cancelled as well. The person answering the phone said it's on the schedule, it should be going. I think I'm talking to the front desk. I ask her to check, at the time I'd started a new job and couldn't just leave to take my daughter if there was no class. She said she'd check. Came back, she didn't know. I called back later, thinking the front person should have a break in between classes and should have been able to find out. She still didn't know. My husband then calls. We keep getting the run around, we don't understand how the front desk has no idea. She keeps saying it's on the schedule, class is on. Finally, the owners husband returns my husbands message. He ask the question for clarification. This "person" was such a major jerk. Said he was far to busy to be answering out questions and "Maybe you should be a more involved father" and you would have known the answer. We find out at this point the person answering the phone was an answering service. Had she identified herself as such, the conversation would have been much different, not to mention a big clue, that yes, both classes were not happening since no one was at the school. The husband proceeded to barat my husband further and ended up telling him to not come to the recital. Other issues with the school. The one and only time we ever had one of the instructors talk to either of us, as we would go in to pick her up and wait the last few minutes of the class, was when Sarah came out and basically yelled at my husband that my daughter needed to be in a different outfit. No, hello are you X dad, I'm Sarah her instructor... Just full on nasty "She needs to be wearing a leotard". Our daughter was a student for over a year. We did multiple camps the first year and had her signed up for three camps just after the recital. All of which we immediately cancelled and they were refunded. The environment was unfriendly. We are not "dance mom's" nor do we want to be and unless you are and want to full on go all out to do the dance company, you are a no body and they treat you that way! The funny thing is, watching the progress of my daughter, the things that she improved upon and she improved on them by leaps and bounds where the things she was learning from YouTube that they weren't even teaching in her class. What a waste of money that place turned out to be. So if you want to spend a ton of money and be treated like crap and then told to be a more involved parent... I'd recommend this crap show of a school. If you want to be treated like the good human you are, run away! I'd give negative stars if I could. Also, I had many people, after posting my story, reach out to me and tell me they had similar experiences here. So, it wasn't just our "uninvolved" selves! Thanks for making my husband and myself so upset that he absolutely refused to go to the recital because he didn't want to see "the husband" (because I'm not calling him here what we really call him). The guy that goes all out for his kids didn't get to see his daughter perform because of some power hungry jerk that couldn't answer a question.
