I filled out the form to pre register, gave my credit card information, was charged almost $300, but I never confirmed and never took my daughter to the camp. I was not refunded, was told I could instead use the credit. I asked if I could use it in the next summer they said yes, but when the time came, they said they had no record of the conversation and I was denied. I lost that money!! Make sure you keep a record of every communication. read more

Stay away from this "academy"! It's a scam. If your kids are young, this is definitely not the place for them! We are never setting foot here again and we'll do anything in our power to warn other parents and tell our story regarding this place so they know what to expect. And don't even think about complaining to them, specially the owner. She will turn her back on you and leave you talking to yourself instead of trying to listen, make things right and improve things for the academy". I could go on an on about all the things we experienced here. Incredible read more

If you have younger girls (toddler) this is not the place for them. Their focus is solely on the older girls classes. On the recital day, the younger girls were asked to be there one hour prior to the show. No staff was ever there to supervise them. We (the moms) we're not able to drop them off as we had to stay there to make sure they were supervised by an adult. The entire show lasted 1 and a half hour. And the younger girls were on stage for 1 minute tops, 20 minutes before the show ended. We bought tickets for 6 family member at $35 each + a dress for my daughter ($70) only to see her a second We approached the owner at the end of the show to complain about what had happened because we believe this was disrespectful to all parents/families of this age group. We felt our time and money was use to fund the show for the other age group. The owner turn around and walk away and left us there like nothing read more

BEWARE! We have unfortunately had a terrible experience at the school this Thursday, 9/23/21 during the Pre-Ballet class at 5:30pm and have been forced to unenroll from this awful school. We had an incident this day where we were running late to class and when we came into the school, I sat my daughter in a chair to change her shoes and the receptionist noticed that she was wearing jazz shoes instead of ballet shoes. At this moment, the receptionist reprimanded us for it many many times in front of other mothers and students even though I clearly apologized to the receptionist the first time she mentioned it and told her I was willing to buy pink ballet shoes that she had in her hands at the moment. She refused to accept my initial apology and continued to reprimand me and my daughter for having the wrong shoes. My daughter even told her that the ballet shoes she had at home didn't fit her so these were temporary until we bought new ones. As any working mother can understand, it is not always easy to find the time to buy everything that is required. I will not allow someone to speak to me and my daughter in this way and get away with it. It is disrespectful and out of line. Unfortunately, the receptionist then proceeded to tell Sophia's pre-ballet teacher... Once ballet class ended the pre-ballet teacher sat next to me and started telling my daughter "Sophia, you know you are wearing the wrong shoes? Those are not the right ballet shoes. You need ballet shoes not jazz shoes..." I then told the ballet teacher we understood because the receptionist had already reprimanded us SEVERAL times about it. The ballet teacher then said "I am not speaking to you, I am speaking to Sophia." She then began speaking very forcefully to me about how I MUST have her wear the right shoes. Even stood up and got very close to my face with a very angry and threatening demeanor. Luckily she took a deep breath and walked away. I then went up to the receptionist and requested that Sophia be unenrolled but she told me the director of the school would handle this. I can't even begin to describe how disrespectful this is. Sophia is in many after school activities for a few years now and we have NEVER been treated so poorly by staff. I hope the director of this school corrects this situation because it is very unfortunate that I have to disrupt my child's classes due to this reprehensible behavior by LCAPA's staff. Please know there were at least three other mothers that noticed the situation and all felt terrible for how I was treated by the staff. This reaffirmed my decision to pull Sophia out of this school. As a side note, me and two other mothers had a very difficult time getting in contact with the school during the enrollment process. We had tried contacting the school several times to enroll our daughters and no one would answer even though we had signed up online and put in our credit card info. I should have known this experience was going to be terrible from the beginning. read more

DO NOT COME TO THIS STUDIO! They kicked my twins out of their FIRST class and made them cry bc I didn't have all their shoes yet. I asked them to please give me a week to get them and they refused. They said I had to buy the shoes from them because they couldn't dance in cheap shoes. Mind you we have friends and family that go here and bought all their shoes on Amazon. They obviously don't care for their customer and just want your money. Thanks for replying to my review a year later. I was not having a bad day until you made it a bad day and I did not misunderstand anything. As I said, it was our FIRST class and that is why I didn't have the shoes yet. I was asking you to give us time to order them. Anyway, save your time and money people, don't go to this studio! There are so many other studios in Miami. read more

As a student here, this is the best dance studio there is. Super friendly staff and kids. Magnificent facility with amazing floors and bars. Very dedicated teachers that are there every step of the way. Super cute and trendy uniform. Before LCA, I had no technique and barely any friends. I met ALL my best friends here! I have become so much better at ballet, hip hop, singing, acting, and basically everything! The environment is friendly and safe in the classroom and the reception area! The classes are wonderful and the price is amazing considering how amazing the teachers are, how professional the programs are, and how healthy the environment is! I have honestly seen how much I and my friends have improved. I have also participated in the "Broadway company" and the "Dance team" and probably one of my best decisions! It has taught me sportsmanship and tolerance and it is so much fun going to competition with all your friends and hanging out in between numbers and just cheering on you friend. It is so amazing knowing I have a wonderful team that had got my back! If you want your kid in the best performing arts studio in southern Florida, LCA is the place for you!!! read more

Are you looking for a studio where the director automatically casts her children in lead roles before considering other students? Perhaps you are comfortable having a private conversation on speaker phone so that everyone in the studio can hear you? What about showing up for a personal meeting, and not being escorted into private room/area, in order for  everyone to tune into your conversation? Maybe you are happy with teachers making inappropriate comments that affect students' self esteem and/or body shame them?  If money is no object, you should be content having fees automatically deducted from your account, while you wait weeks for an explanation of the charges.  Would you like your child to claim a top prize at a competition and receive no praise /congratulations for their hard work because the studio director felt that her judgement is better than those of the qualified judges?  Do you enjoy working with soneone who twists the truth to make themself have the upperhand? Well then this is the studio for you! The 20/21 season was pretty good, considering alot of hurdles that had to be jumped. Not sure what happened during the 21/22 season, but the entire culture/environment of the studio has deteriorated. I was given the option to leave, and have taken my child's talents elsewhere. Best of luck to you if you decide to send your precious ones here... read more
