DO NOT enroll your kids here, during this pandemic for obvious reasons we didn't have a class…read moreduring March (tuition had already been paid at the beginning of the month), which I completely understand, so I waited for them to communicate with us to see what was going to happen, after all having to close it's not their fault, it was something no one expected, first they send an email saying that they weren't going to charge for April (payments are set up for automatic draft) because obviously they need it to stay closed, but then they send another email saying that they were going to do virtual clases with a 20%off, I thought that was a little overpriced for a virtual class (mind you the class is $70 per month, other studios have been doing virtual classes for $10 per month, I could have considered taking the class just to support their business after all we have to help each other during this time of crisis but the way they handled this situation was not very good in my opinion. We were given only two options take the class with a 20%off discount or drop the class, but if were to choose the second option our kids would not be able to participate on the recital that had already been fully paid for and also there was no mention at all of what's going to happen to March's tuition which was Already paid for as well, we are talking about $180 that had already been paid and that we would basically loose unless we choose to keep paying for the virtual class. I send an email asking about refund for the money for the recital since my kid is not able to participate and also a refund for March, but they said they are not doing refunds, didn't have any other option to at least give me credit or anything like that, I send another mail but they just didn't bother to answer me back. I understand business are having a hard time right now, but I feel like they forcing us to do the virtual class, even though is overpriced on my opinión $56 vs $10 other places are doing is a big difference, and they are doing this by holding hostage the money we have already paid for a recital we don't even know if it's going to happened plus March tuition. We are all in the same boat, their business is not the only one that's suffering due to this pandemic and for them to not give us any other options I think is wrong, today another mom that takes her kid there told me she is also dropping the class (she choose to do do the virtual class) because she also feels like they are not being conscientious of other people's situation, and TIL this day they haven't said anything about giving credit for March's tuition to her either, yet they already charged them for April. If they wanted to do the right thing they should have started April by not charging for that month or at least giving them extra clases.

While the technical training is acceptable, the teacher regularly accuses parents of making up excuses when a student must miss. Life happens. Instead of showing understanding, this instructor shames parents and questions our honesty even to the our own child. A positive recreational activity should not feel like an interrogation. We will be taking our business to a studio that respects families and models basic empathy. This issue was brought to Lindsay DiGiuseppe's attention, who decided to ignore what this teacher did.

Because the charges kept appearing, we eventually went back in person to cancel again. On top of that, the instructor who was supposedly teaching the lesson we were billed for wasn't even present.
