For at least the last five years, Dancers Edge competition team has produced national champions - at least I know my cousin has had routines win national competitions for that long. This studio is known for technique and extensions. Search "Dancers Edge" on YouTube and you will find a plethora of phenomenally choreographed routines which highlight the dancers' talents. NOTE: Dancers Edge is no longer located on Main St. They have a new studio on Pershing. http://www.dedance.com/

I'm so bummed I didn't start her sooner! She LOVES the class! Now, let me explain my little one. She is really active, loves all sports, hates all dresses. I don't think "girly" has ever been a word to describe my 9 year old daughter. Feisty? Yeah, that one I've heard a few times to describe her... ;) So, when she joined the hip hop class, on the first day I was a bit intimidated by the bling, mini shorts, and hot pink shirts the other girls were wearing, but the instructors do an amazing job of making the girls feel comfortable and have fun. The facility is organized, clean, and inexpensive! ($50 a month for one class) However, I understand dance 'can' get pretty expensive (just like any extracurricular activity), so, I can't speak in terms of the prices for the competition dance classes or costumes.

There was zero instruction of leading and following. Followers were made to memorize and execute the pattern, which was just as well because leaders were not taught how to lead it.

With that said, everyone was friendly and supportive, and the class is reasonably affordable at $10 per person.
