The operations of this place is ridiculous. For the second time they cancelled my child's spot…read more Then they have the audacity to leave my 3yr old out on the rain. I enrolled him in their website that only asks for registration. It doesn't ask for payment, you don't get an email requesting payment or nothing, just a confirmation that says your child has been enrolled. I show up to the place 30min early to pay and set up my child for class and the person who opens the door #1 doesn't let me walk in even though it was pouring raining and I'm with my 3yr old and #2 informs me that my child doesn't show up in their system and that they are overbooked that they called a prior day (even though they didn't call me) to confirm and they couldn't take him. This is the second time they do this, cancelled my reservation out of nowhere and don't even tell you how to pay. They have no sense of customer service!

I really can't say enough good things about this dance school. My daughter and son LOVE it here…read more They have both learned so much and had a lot of fun. The owner, Linda is very talented and the kids all pick up on the steps quickly. The school dancers working with the kids are all wonderful, talented and kind. I couldn't believe how beautiful everything was at their first show last June and how much fun my kids had at their shows. The studio itself is clean and beautifully set up. It's really an incredible dance school.

I would recommend anyone thinking about enrolling your child at this studio to stay far away. We…read morehad taken our girls there prior to covid and that ownership unfortunately sold to a new owner and to put it simply she is not up to task. There was specific incident that occurred in a class that was handled the wrong way. The adult instructor allowed and indicated to the only two girls "one being my daughter and the other a friend" in the class that they did not have to wear a mask which I am actually fine with considering it is only two girls and an instructor in a large studio. The issue is that the owner decided give a little talk to the children who were instructed by the dance teacher that removal of the mask is okay. So without finding out about whether or not the students decided to not wear a mask or were told not to by the adult she just assumed they took it upon themselves to remove the masks. The owner then decided to lecture me at pick up time about the mask policy. I had one simple question as to who allowed them to remove the mask and the owner only responded with "it is the studio's policy to wear masks in class," which is fine but than why are instructors telling kids to take the mask off if they want? Again, I could care less about the mask on or off. More concerned about the lack of management understanding a situation and placing blame on an 8 and 9 year old. And the icing on the cake is to than come out and lecture the parent. The other issue that day is that my daughter had come in the wrong attire "gray stretch pants instead of black and her hair was not tied up as required." My daughter takes some of the blame if not all because she should know and was told as such by me after the fact. As her dad I was not on the up and up about the strict dance gallery attire I assumed she would know and follow rules. The same day incident was handled again oddly by ownership sending a stern email to Parents in addition to a talking to after class. Quiet frankly the studio is not the same and enrollment is very weak due to obvious reasons. We had been charged 1100 dollars on Nov 22nd 2021 and this took place Nov 30th one week later. I told the owner that day my daughters are no longer coming here and I want a refund. Keep in mind the 1100 dollar charge is for December through feb 2022. So maybe this class counted towards 1100 dollar charge . If so one class used out of 1100 dollars. Dance gallery is refusing to give a refund. The owner of the studio is basically only concerned about money and I want people to be aware of that fact before you enroll your child or children like We had done. We tried to give this dance studio a chance considering the long standing relationship we had prior to the new owner but she is just not a good person and focused only on her bottom line. If I could give no stars I would. If some had paid in full for services not rendered yet and wanted a refund because they decided it was not the right fit at my business- guess what I do the right thing and refund over a thousand dollar to the client. The fact is this owner is desperate for money or just greedy.

After struggling with disappointment in two dance studios nearby, I signed my daughter up at The…read moreDance Gallery. What a huge difference!!! I could not be happier. This place is what dancing should be all about. They teach little girls from age 3 up to adults. Miss Stephanie, the studio's Director, is a professionally trained dancer with a gift for teaching and encouraging. She's simply wonderful. The studio is brand new, with real floating wood dance floors, and classes are small enough to allow for individualized mentoring. The whole staff is great, and the tuition prices are very reasonable. I love this place. Thank you Dance Gallery for rescuing my daughter from Ballet dispair!!! PS: Very well located across the Tuckahoe train station (we live in nearby Bronxville) makes for easy pick-ups and drop-offs

Arthur Murray Dance has been a life changing experience for me since moving to White Plains, NY a…read morefew months ago. Every member of the staff is charming, from Michael the owner, Moises, the "hostest with the mostest", and several fantastic dance instructors. My personal "dance team" consists of Kiki, flair personified; Sophia, the "drill instructor", and Denzel, the baddest man on two feet you'd ever meet. I dance bachata, salsa and the hustle with this crew, and am about to add the cha cha. I recently attended and danced at the big Medal Ball at the Surf Club in New Rochelle! Swank. And I couldn't have even gotten into the building without the kindness, focus and commitment of these great human beings. I am beyond grateful. Run, don't walk, and dance!

Addie and her amazing instructors, Devin, Vera, and Kevin, truly take pride in what they do. Their passion, energy, and dedication make every class a great experience. The atmosphere is always fun and welcoming, and their monthly themed socials bring together a wonderful community of dancers from all over. With live bands, amazing performances, and plenty of dancing, there's always something to look forward to! And I have to give a special shoutout to Jazmin, who makes the best drinks in the house! I highly recommend trying one of their Bootcamp classes the next time they offer one. You'll have fun, get your steps in, and meet some great people along the way! Come check out the next social on Saturday, August 15th -- Havana Night! Addie-tude is where the dance community family come together!

The quality of training is recognized and appreciated in the professional dance world. The love, the care and personal attention that all the students receive is commendable. If you are looking for a non competitive environment and friends for life for your child, note that the school has a zero tolerance on negative competition and gossips (parents and or students). The Director and faculty members are dedicated and extremely generous with their time and knowledge. The performances are a delight ! A class ACT!

AVOID THE ADULT BALLET CLASS !!!…read more I was excited to find a ballet studio that offers adult classes in my area. The teacher Dieter Riesle told me that I could come for a trial class free of charge and added that "if you have had gymnastics, other dance forms, yoga or acrobatics prior, you may be able to work yourself into this level". As a 27-year-old former professional athlete who now does yoga and barre on the regular basis, it sounded as I would be able to do it. I came at 10am as the manager Hans-Jakob told me to, but it turned out the classes started at 10:30am. No problem! I waited. At 10:30am Dieter asked me how I was going to pay: cash or check. I said that he mentioned this first class being free so I didn't bring any cash/checks. He told me: oh, then you should SIT AND WATCH TODAY because "I don't want you to hurt yourself"!!! WHAT?!! So 5 seconds ago when you thought I was paying, you were not afraid that I would hurt myself?? The class consisted of older ladies, with one of them not even being able to walk straight anymore due to her old age! I told him that I took some ballet classes in Russia and I am an athlete in general. He did not care! He kept saying I would not be able to keep up with those older women. Wow, they must be retired from Bolshoi Ballet! I left the studio shocked and disgusted.

My daughter has attended Logrea Dance Academy since was 5 years old. She is now 12 and I have…read morenothing but positive things to say about this Studio and the Logrea Family. She is taking 14 classes a week and never complains about going to the studio. This studio is like a second home for her. Mrs. Logrea is still the heart and sole of the studio and continues to set the bar high for her students. Nick Logrea is always present and always makes time to talk things out and ease any concerns I have. Mr. Logrea is still teaching ballet classes and is one of my daughter's favorite teachers (He truly cares about hos students and always has a smile on his face when he walks into the studio). All of the teachers at this studio, especially Ms. Rebecca, Ms. Natalie, Ms. Jane, Mr. Billy, Mr. David, and Mr. Josh are all amazing and have helped my daughter grow so much this year! The training at this studio is unmatched. The Spring Concert, the Gala, the Cabaret, and of course Ms. Logrea's Nutcracker are all so amazing! I have no regrets about joining this studio and Dance family:)

It makes me laugh when I read the filtered reviews for Logrea and how interesting...Everyone rated…read morefive stars...Of course that means its totally legitimate, I mean come on! NOT I watched a family member slowly lose confidence after attending this 'academy' and I could not urge more, to really pay attention to your child's behavior if they are a part of this school. The place is freezing, and on one of the worse street corners, accompanied by maybe TWO parking spots. The others are clearly and boldly marked for other businesses, or the Logreas themselves; and otherwise they will tow you. I witnessed many younger children just sitting around while some select few were given the most attention inside; the cramped inside space it was as well. If you were not 98 pounds and the lightest on your feet, forget having a chance. Logrea is queen at playing favorites. I applaud talent, but come on, recognize the other talent around you!!! Some girls were not allowed to graduate to point, one of the most rewarding and exciting times a young dancer can experience, when they are ready; unless you are of course, Too Fat. And by standards of fat, they mean an 8 yr old weighing 62 pounds and at a decent height. I know you need to have 'strong ankles' but it was often ironic that the girls that didn't graduate were the ones that weren't shelling out the $$$$ for 4-5 classes a week. To start the body consciousness, and loss of self esteem at such a young age is deplorable. I'm not saying that Logrea doesn't turn out great dancers, because they can and do; but it is rare when they teach and show all their students with respect. Maybe things have changed over the years for the better, and I truly hope so for the sake of all the dancers.
