This place is closed on Mothers Day, and open on Fathers Day. Apparently time with dads means ZERO to Debbie's. Lets be honest, half the kids out there are part of a divorced family, and maybe just maybe the time with the dad has been stripped down to crumbs via a not equal court system. So lets treat both days and parents the same way.

Kinetic is a great local dance studio with both adult and kid classes. The adult classes were…read moreactually adults and not just me and a bunch of teens which was great. I've been a ballroom dancer for years and have done zumba and pole before. The classes here were a real workout and did teach me a lot of technique. Unfortunately my schedule is such that I just couldn't commit to the way they do their program. After trying three classes for $30, I was then shown the package/price options and honestly? Really reasonably priced for what you get and I would have paid in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, they just don't have enough later classes. They also force you to do either ballet or jazz. I wasn't feeling either of those but really liked their hip hop class and LOVED their contemporary class. Their program is structured around two classes a week with a set schedule(one elective and one standard) by season where as my ballroom schedule changes monthly so I couldn't block off two nights on the days my work schedule allows me to do something after work (and a lot of their options start at 4 and I work til 4:30). It's a total bummer but if you don't have any other conflicting commitments, this really is a fabulous studio. Would totally enroll a kid here as well. I was treated kindly and the teachers were great. If I'm able to go back in the future, I'd definitely consider it.

Great atmosphere, everyone is very encouraging and accommodating to any personal need !…read more The variety of styles and not having an age limit on classes are an absolute positive, since most studios do not offer adult classes for certain styles, and I believe dance should be enjoyable for everyone. They will treat you like family and that's how it feels like, definite 5 Star for me !

I find the studio to always be body positive which is important to us.

One of our daughter's classmates this year is in her 70's and the kindness and encouragement she has shown our daughter has been such a gift in her life.

Experienced and knowledgeable staff offer a wide variety of dance classes for all ages and levels. As a mature (and I mean mature) adult with two left feet and zero prior dance experience, I moved out of my comfort zone and purchased pair of ballet shoes.

Thorough without being annoying. A+ on info and reaching out to answer your questions and encourage you to "try on" a class before you commit. I was new to the area and thought it might be a fun way to establish a routine. As an adult with grown children I wouldn't have thought the dance studio that was a family kind of thing would have been a place for me to thrive as an adult. I'm not competitive and wanted a reason to exercise. I've found a family type of environment, a fun way to exercise with out the pressure to be more than you are (or want to be)... the folks that work here are professionals that welcome any level, positive and encouraging. At 55 I'm having the best time! Thank you SSD!

Once I finally figured out how to get to the front, I still wasn't positive I was in the right place until I saw the sign saying "Self Defense." Bingo. I was invited to take part in a self defense class. It was a private party for the 7 of us that showed up and was a 3 hour class. The first hour was a getting to know us hour. Why we were there, what we were looking for out of the class, ect. The last 2 hours were learning and practicing some of the self defense techniques that were taught. I learned things I wish I would have learned years ago. Things I'm almost embarrassed to have not know. Things that every woman should learn in order to protect herself from any number of situations. Our instructor was wonderful. Fun and knowledgeable. She was also very respectful of us while we practiced. We only physically practiced the tricks if we were comfortable doing so. It was a very safe environment. The building offers numerous other classes. Ballet and belly dancing, yoga, tai chi and Zumba. There's also a weekly self defense class on Mondays that I'll be doing my best to drop in when I'm able. Seriously ladies. It was beyond worth giving up 3 hours of my Sunday to learn this stuff.
