I'm so glad I stumbled across Soc Studio. I've been exploring additional activities for my kids and…read morethought we would give dancing a shot. You can enroll in free trial classes here before you commit to anything. I enrolled my son in the hip hop class and wanted to get my daughter in the hula class, but the latter is extremely popular with a couple dozen people already on the waitlist. The parking lot is shared with some other businesses so it can get pretty packed but I was luckily able to score a spot when I arrived. The studio is easy to navigate, with 3 different dance rooms holding simultaneous classes. There is a bench against the wall where parents can sit and watch if they want, although the view isn't ideal. You can also just drop your kid off at a class and come back for pickup. The studio is conveniently located a couple of blocks away from Grand so plenty of things to do in the area while you wait. The classes are a great way for kids to burn off some extra energy while also learning a new skill set. The techniques taught are age appropriate and the teachers are warm and friendly. There are two (optional) recitals held throughout the year so the students can showcase everything they learned. And the monthly price of membership is very competitive for what you're getting out of it.

I enrolled my 4 year old daughter in Shely Pack Dancers last summer when we moved to HMB. Shely &…read moreher husband, along with Miss Grace have been very helpful, patient, and kind with me and my daughter regarding any of our questions or needs. They are very flexible, which I appreciate as my daughter is signed up for Saturday morning class but sometimes that is not always manageable so she's allowed to attend the Monday class when she can't make the Saturday class. Miss Grace has been my daughter's teacher since day one- another big plus! I've seen many programs (especially children's programs) where the teachers/coaches/whoever change frequently and that can be disappointing since children are creating trust and attachment, the consistency in routine is lost and it makes management look bad. Seeing that Miss Grace has never missed teaching a Saturday (or Monday) class shows me that she loves her work, she loves the children and Shely likely is a good employer. At least, that is my assumption. MIss Grace has also been assertive in letting me know when my daughter has misbehaved, another quality I appreciate. I am not looking for someone to coddle my child- I'm looking for a professional who takes their role and their art seriously. Not because I am a Stage mom but because I want any interest my daughter takes on to be reciprocated with the same respect and dedication. Who wants a coach who lets kids run crazy? Who wants a music teacher who lets the student continue to sound awful? Who wants a dance teacher who lets children goof off and be a brat during class? I don't! I never took dance classes to know if Shely Pack Dancers is the next Twyla Tharp Ballet Company, but my gut tells me it's an excellent place for my child to learn dance.

Another great thing about it is that there are so many different types of dance, like Hip-Hop, Ballet, Acro and Tap, with many others. It is also awesome because it is by the harbor, which is amazing. We wear outstanding costumes at our shows, we get to perform at a beautiful theater. The teachers are thoughtful because they find the things you have to work on and something you're good at. So many fantastic things have happened. I absolutely love Shelly Pack Dancers. -Written by Third Grade Student

My daughter's previous dance school closed down and due to the pandemic she fell behind on her technique. I was worried it was too late for her- but WCDC helped her so much! Her skill level and technique for an 11 year old is impressive and I owe it all to Angela and her staff. Angela is great! She so calm and collective, not a ordinary dance school director.
