An absolutely wonderful learning experience!! My daughter started attending Music Together classes…read morewhen she was 8 months old. She is 17 months now and has shown so much growth! She can independently sing many of the words in each song and this has carried over to finishing rhymes in sentences when reading books. Her language development has taken off and she repeats many of the concepts at home that she hears in class, such as numbers, colors and patterns. She loves the teachers and interacting with other children, both older and younger than she is. As a parent and early childhood educator, I am very particular when it comes to high quality curriculum and music. Music Together delivers both, as well as caring and nurturing teachers. We look forward to attending classes for many years to come!

My daughter is now almost 2 1/2 and she can't wait to go to music class each week---and, frankly, neither can I. It is impossible not to have fun there! She knows so many of the songs and she (and my husband and I) sing them together in the car and at home. A woman I work with heard me humming one day and said "Music Together? I took my kids there and my grandchildren go now too!" People just love this program and I can see why. The teachers are wonderful. We have had a chance (with make ups and summer classes) to be in class with all three teachers at this location. Each one of them has a different style, but what is a constant is that they all clearly love being around children and they are all talented musicians. They make the songs come alive with dances and props. The children learn the songs quickly because the activities that illustrate the songs are fun and stick with them. Even the babies in the class react to the songs! It's really something to watch their little faces as their moms and dads and caregivers and their big brothers and sisters dance and sing. Last night, my daughter sang me a song we are just learning this semester called "Tomorrow's Now Today." She got 75% of the words and she was dead on with the melody. It was amazing. Give it a try. Music Together will be the best 45 minutes of your week!

I have never been a "dancer", but my girlfriend is, and I wanted to get myself up to speed so I could keep up with her. Choosing to take an advanced beginner class here was a great decision for me and I am thrilled to have found a space where I am comfortable learning the basics, but also challenged to learn more and more each week. If you're looking for a great place to pick up (or perfect) dancing I highly recommend going here! Class sizes range from just a few dancers to more than a dozen, depending on the style and level. Prices are reasonable and parking in the lot is a breeze!

It has taken me a few months to write this because I've been going back and forth on how much…read moredetail to divulge. I will start by saying that Miss Maria threatened to sue me for sharing my experiences with others. She said she was planning to sue me for liable - I can only assume she means libel. Anyway. Her threats won't stop me from sharing. After 3 years of being part of this dance school, it has become blatantly obvious to me how appalling Maria's behavior is, and what a horrible business person she truly is. While at first Maria comes across as friendly and helpful, you'll notice that if there is any conflict, for which there will be many, she will flip and she won't know how to approach the situation. The most recent exchange we had started as a fairly simple one and could have been easily diffused. Instead, she became defensive, heated, accusatory, and spewed disgusting insults at me. If she had responded like a professional, she pretty much could have guaranteed that my three children remain enrolled from age 2 until age 18. She severed that, unfortunately to her. Over the three years my children were enrolled, there were many instances in which communication was handled poorly. Of these, the most concerning was a pattern I saw in which it seemed like she completely forgot previous conversations and did something entirely different than she said she would. This happened with assigning teachers (switching last minute after I requested a certain one), changing dance class time to accommodate another class that she never added, allowing my son to join prior to turning 3 and then accusing me of lying), and then becoming defensive and flustered when confronted. There was also an instance when my daughter was enrolled in a 2/3 class where a child's nanny brought her boyfriend to class, and he would take photos and videos of children unrelated to him (including my daughter). I wrote to miss Maria expressing my concern and told her it made me feel uncomfortable. You'd think she'd show up to the next class - she didn't, and instead, I was greeted by a passive aggressive nanny who proceeded to live stream FaceTime the class to her boyfriend who was waiting in the car. I should have pulled my daughter out then, and looking back, I wish I had. Maria should have absolutely asked them to leave, but alas, she wasn't there, and the teacher of the class seemed to be oblivious. Her approach towards handling conflict makes me wonder how on earth she has a successful dance school. Based on the other reviews on this page, I can see I'm not the only one she has done this too. I am saddened that I wasted so much time, energy, and money on this school. I even continued to pay her through covid, after she quite literally begged. There are many other dance schools out there -- trust the reviews.

I'll have all of you know that 3, yes 3 different families contacted me regarding the studio owners disgusting behavior AFTER I had been gone for some time.

Birthday part review Clean spacious facility. Birthday…read moreparties are 1.5 hours which is nice for adults but felt a bit rushed. The front lobby area has a spot for coats and shoes plus a large comfy sitting area in front of a large floor to ceiling windows where you can see into the gymnastic area. Children must take off socks and then they can run and play in the left side area. The room has 3 different sections. The left side has an obstacle course, floor mat to run and play parachute, and foam ball pit! This is where we spent most of our time. The middle election has floor trampolines where they took a couple runs around and then the right side had a blow up centipede where the kids enter thru the mouth, go over a hill out the end. Then they are ushered into the party room for food, drinks, cake, etc. it was very organized but was lacking enthusiasm from the instructors. Plenty of parking and again, very clean! I wanted to comment on another review where the family was ushered out for lack of participation. Our kiddo wasn't into it either and sat off to the side with us for most of it but we had no issue with the staff asking us to leave, thankfully. So seems like they've changed their policy which is great!

In a kind and caring way they encouraged the children that were hesitant to try things and celebrated with and kept safe (in a non-punitive way) the children who ran from area to area trying everything!
