The…read moreowner and EVERY single teacher has their own kids dancing and absolutely everything revolves around their squad. It's shocking how they don't even try to act impartial, they run the studio as the studio stars, everything is about them. I wish I could review other aspects but the nepotism is so unfair it ruined everything. As paying customers you are basically paying to finance THEIR dance, since they don't pay for anything. This special squad is put on only the best teams even when they're years younger. They get the best dances, the best spots (ALWAYS front and center w/ a special solo just for them in every dance). Your kid is their backup dancer. Even if you don't go there you know who they are by watching their dances, even my family commented. This studio doesn't care about anyone else. They also get "special" choreographers that no one else is offered, & go to special dance events no else is invited to. They hang out with the competition judges and choreographers with their Moms after classes (no one else is invited) so they are well known at every competition by the same judges, so of course they get 1st place in everything, and all the studio awards. The paying students get the crumbs, even if your kid is good, you're ignored totally. They don't have to pay for any classes so they get access to every specialty class, no matter the level, even if they are 5 years younger than the rest of the dancers. I understand favoritism, but it's so toxic how this place literally revolves around their own kids in every aspect. Steer clear for the sake of your child. So happy we switched studios, my daughter loves dance again.

The prices for their classes are extremely reasonable and for the quality of service that is provided, it is money well spent. The instructors are all knowledgeable, passionate about dance, and so great with the kids. As someone who has a dance background, I really appreciate the focus on teaching the skills, proper technique and building a good foundation all while keeping it fun and encouraging creativity. They really have everything from the administrative side of things to the instruction figured out. You can definitely tell that they have 20 years of experience and based on what I have seen, they have built a strong program of beautiful movers, provide a great variety of classes and opportunities to perform, and most importantly foster an uplifting and positive culture which can be hard to find in the dance world. Everything from registering for classes until the curtain closed at their recital was easy- I honestly have no negative feedback. My daughter grew so much this year, and I am looking forward to continuing her dance education with ADP.

I'm so thankful to have found this place. Dance has been a dream of mine since I was a girl. (My…read moreeyes would tear up watching any live dance performance. But I didn't have the opportunity to pursue that dream.) As an adult, most options were barred by my work schedule, the price-tag, or prerequisite experience. There were a few exceptions--times when I've slipped into ballet shoes and into an adult dance class. But, despite my desire to learn, I'd fall behind, feeling like an outsider in a club for the more experienced. Thankfully, since moving to Loveland last year, I noticed SlapStep Studio online. The location (near King Soopers on E 29th St), and the price-tag ($25 two week trial), made it convenient to try. I jumped into 4 classes the first week, and returned to two classes the second week. I found all the instructors to be helpful and insightful, reminding me of some of my favorite yoga instructors, as they highlight muscles used for each move. Bonnie's Lyrical dance on Thursdays is emotive, and unites the entire body for poetic, fluid motions. In Vixen or other classes, Marlene's dance expertise and care is evident in her smile and elegant display of each glide and gesture. You don't need to have prior experience to join beginner classes, and instructors and fellow students are encouraging and positive. Marlene's classes especially draw dancers from a span of ages--from twenty-something to retired. In every class, including Flora's Pound Fit on Friday, there were ecstatic moments where all levels and ages danced together harmoniously. Thanks for making dance classes for grown ups of all levels, and for the introductory offer of $25 for two weeks. (Also, I should be able to afford the $55 for 4 classes a month, but I'm searching for a job right now.) Hope this studio and its students are around for a long time!

I am so impressed by how welcoming and comfortable SlapStep Studios is!…read moreJackie, the owner, is so friendly and made me feel like I definitely made the right choice going to SlapStep Studios! The classes that I tried with their 2-week unlimited class deal were fun, very well taught, and in a clean, bright, spacious studio with a beautiful sprung wood dance floor. Everything was very professional, yet personalized, so that I have been really excited to go back and try more classes! Marlene's Vixen class really got my heart pumping, yet was slow enough for me to learn the dance steps, easily, and it was jazzy! Flora's PoundFit class with the drum sticks is unique, and a great workout, followed by revitalizing relaxation techniques! I am so happy to find this wonderful, new dance studio! It's a great way to have fun while getting fit! There is plenty of parking in the Orchard Shopping Center, too!

Maya is such a fantastic teacher! A few years ago when my boyfriend (now husband) and I started…read moredating, we took up salsa and bachata lessons with Maya's group classes. Neither of us had ever done any latin dancing, but we had a blast and spent the summer going to latin dancing social gathering and events, it was so much fun! Fast forward a few years to when we were planning a wedding. We wanted to reminisce with Maya learn some steps for our first dance. She was amazing and took the time out of her busy schedule to meet with us and help us choreograph a beautiful first dance to Dancing with a Smile by Bruno Mars & Lady Gaga. Not salsa or bachata in the slightest, but that's just a testament to how great of a teacher Maya is. Highly recommend and would love to go back again and again!

What a strange experience as a non-Christian... I found this studio on Groupon and didn't do full…read moreresearch on it beforehand so that part is on me, but starting a class with a prayer and ending with gospel music stretching was.... quite an experience as a non-religious person with a Jewish upbringing! What a time. I did see after the fact that their website mentions this practice, but it doesn't exactly make it welcoming to non-religious customers. The adult tap class I tried was challenging in new ways and definitely more focused on classical tap with a hint of Irish dancing, which isn't my favorite but I know that is studio dependent. The teacher was knowledgeable but didn't really explain steps fully to the whole class, and the woman next to me was asking me questions throughout about how to break down a movement when the teacher herself kept messing it up, even though I was brand new. They have tape on the floor to mark distance but the teacher stated she didn't know how to maintain distance yet during class and many of the students were right next to one another. Only I and one other student wore a mask in a class of 8-10 people. My biggest disappointment was the lack of acknowledgement and following of the mask mandate. Aside from a couple of people I saw inside and plexiglass at the front desk, it was like entering a pre-COVID world. Staff and customers alike did not wear masks, and yet there were crowds of kids moving about the studio and adults all very close to one another, maskless and without distancing. They had only 1 sign on the front door asking people to distance. Religion will not protect you from a pandemic or a state mandate.

Wow! I'm so thankful for Lighthouse Dance! What an incredible place for my children (and hopefully…read moremyself one of these days) to learn the art of dance at. The staff is very welcoming and professional, and the facility is clean and beautiful. They even have special air filtration systems in place for the safety of their students! They go above any beyond with even having someone man the door so that we don't have to open or close it while coming in and leaving! (At least on the day we are there they do.) The foyer is never packed because they clearly communicate with their families as to how to drop off and pick up their kiddos. I am so thankful my children can have some normality during what's been a mentally challenging time. Not only children, but parents too, need to have outlets of community and lighthouse is a safe place for it. My children get excited for dance days, and I do too. Thank you Lighthouse Dance for offering a safe, professional, and encouraging place in Loveland.
