Enrolling my girls in this dance studio has been one of the best decisions we've made. From the…read morevery first day, the staff made us feel so welcome--it truly feels like a second home. Everyone is kind, patient, and genuinely excited to help kids grow, not just as dancers, but as confident little humans. The teachers are phenomenal. They're professional and incredibly skilled, but what stands out most is how gentle and encouraging they are with the kids. They know how to make class fun while still teaching solid technique, and our child looks forward to every single session. We've seen such a wonderful improvement in our kiddos coordination, confidence, and overall love of movement. The progress is real, but so is the joy--and that's what makes this studio so special. It's a place where kids are supported, challenged, and celebrated. As a parent, there's nothing better than seeing your child thrive in an environment that feels safe, fun, and full of heart. Highly recommend to any family looking for a dance studio that also provides community!

My girls have danced with LDC off and on for a couple of years. We've always had a good experience…read moreup until this year. It seemed very unorganized. My youngest daughter's teacher was not consistently there, life happens and I understand that however when the recital came, it was clear the kids didn't know the dance. I've also witnessed on several occasions the kids being spoken to in nasty, unfriendly tones by more than one instructor and or employee. At the recital multiple kids were yelled at in front of parents by Angela. This is unacceptable behavior coming from a business that is supposed to be there to support military families. This is supposed to be a fun environment for kids and it sadly missed that mark this year. I will be taking my kids to a different studio from now on. Hopefully things can get better in the future after some reflection.

But what we have discovered is that DTOJ spoiled us. I have participated in dance schools since my daughter who is 35 was 6 years old so I've been in and out of many dance studios. DTOJ and Brea Dance Studios are two of the best ever. One in California and one in North Carolina. But I can say that the one we have tried so far in Virginia have been disappointing. Part of that I believe is because DTOj treated us so well.

I…read morestarted pole dancing know I can't lift my self but with the instructors and the positive encouragement I am doing inverts now! I can find a video on Instagram or Pinterest and bring it to the staff and they will help me master it! The environment is positive and body image friendly. The owner really wanted it to be a safe space and this is what this is for me. My failures are not even addressed! Someone will come up to you and help you get into the position you were trying to do on your own so we can at least look at it and know what it feels to accomplish this move. I'm so proud of the owner and happy that she has creates this safe space in Greenville. They even offer other dance styles such as salsa, bachata, hip hop. EVERY DAY!! She has created hours that cater to those that work night shift and hours that cater to those that work early and need to be in bed by 7 like myself. I'm hooked now and try to attend as much as I physically can!

Very unprofessional business. Owner is nice until you disagree with her or decide to leave. At that…read morepoint you'll be yelled at and called every name in the book. She then goes to other parents lying about you and the reasons you left. Tells everyone she'll get her State Trooper husband to find you and take care of you... Her and her single employee will slander you every chance they get just because you simply decide to avoid the childish drama there and stop going. Stole money from us and refused to cancel costumes not delivered even though it's been over 6 weeks since we left and costumes still haven't arrived. Made us waste $300 on costumes we'll never use instead of being professional like other business owners and simply canceling the order. Take the time to drive to another studio that's more established and has real employees that care about the children and not just the money. She pays just over $700 for the recital venue and charges $50 per dancer so she collects about $4,000 profit just from one recital. Makes you sign a contract if your child is a company dancer, which is 100% fine until she changes items in the "contract" that costs all the parents even more money. When you question it you're told to "fucking leave if you don't like the changes. It's my fucking studio and I make the rules!" That's what you have to deal with. Do what's best for your child or children and drive to Studio A in Wilmington where there's a real dance studio and teacher that puts the children before herself!
