They teach in an engaging manner that is very respectful and considerate to the budding ballerina. The atmosphere at the studio is welcoming and the students are very friendly. My daughter really feels at home here. These things are more important to her than the quality of ballet training that she is receiving, which is top notch. She doesn't have plans for a professional dance career but I like knowing that Heartland Conservatory of Dance would set her on that path if she chose to. Meanwhile she is learning to be the best dancer she can be in an environment that is challenging as well as encouraging!

From the get go Christy wasn't friendly which we over looked but today but the icing on the cake..

Not giving five stars because I absolutely hate going…read more The lobby is always a mess, the older girls just throw their stuff around, including food, so seating is always a pain. You also can't really view the dancing at all. They have a small tv with all the sessions going, but, it's too small to really see and the viewing windows are constantly blocked by the same people. It really would be nice if they encouraged the girls not to make a huge mess of the place. Would probably give 5 stars if they did.

My girls have been dancing here for over 11 years now. Mary Lorraine has a wonderful program,…read morethat has taught my girls the art of dance over several different genres. The studio has trained and experienced instructors and their love for dance shows in their instruction. My girls are not just a number here, they are a part of a dance family. Mary Lorraine truly values that family environment in her studio. If you are looking for a studio that pays attention to detail and focuses on teaching proper movement, then you will LOVE this studio. Another great thing about this studio is they are selective with the types costumes chosen for recitals or competitions. My girls have never had a costume that I've felt was inappropriate for their age.

Our experience with TDC has not been a positive one…read more There are a few GREAT teachers here, but others are not very good. After 7 years of sending my three daughters to dance here, we've noticed that the instruction of TDC has gone down dramatically. * Teachers rarely start class on time, and therefore rarely end on time as well. This is difficult when you have a 35-minute drive back home... after a 9:30 pm class... and your kids need to go to school in the morning... * From January to May, all the time in classes with a recital dance is spent on recital. As a former dancer myself, I realized that there needed to be more time spent on technique training. * Class sizes are too large! 35-40 girls in a class under one teacher is unacceptable. Period. The facilities were also lacking. The studios are extremely cramped (and they are not willing to renovate). The studios are either WAY TOO HOT or freezing cold. These are among many problems. -------- We pulled our kids out of TDC two years ago. It was hard to do so with all the friends they'd made, team bonds, and contracts. It was even more difficult write this review for a business we used to love. My (now teenage) daughters now dance at another studio and could not be happier!! :) ----- Disclaimer: this review is neither endorsed, nor sponsored by TDC or other dance studios. the opinions in this review are solely mine, and are, in no way, shape, or form, influenced by others.

After 3 years of loyal service, we are completely pulling out of True Dance Co…read more My daughter started on one of the competition teams for the 2018-19 season. After 8 months of intense training and hard work (and THOUSANDS of dollars into their pockets for mandatory extra choreography classes and mandatory recreational gear) they cut my 5 year old daughter off of the team, for "bad behavior". There were no incident reports, I never had a teacher approach me after class, and I was absolutely stunned when I was informed. They pulled her in January, a week before what would have been her very first competition. This was one of my daughter's first learning experiences when it comes to peers. For a school dedicated to "teaching children", I think they failed miserably. 10/10 would not recommend.
