Tickets are available to the last two shows this weekend (25-26Jul)- go purchase asap! ​My daughter loves the movie, so I've seen it well over 100 times--plus the Broadway production! Since we love musical performances, we knew the moment we ran into YAT at the YMCA health fair that we were definitely going to attend. ​The kids did such a wonderful job! The singing, dancing, and acting were incredible...I was honestly amazed at the sheer amount of talent on stage. During a few songs, I actually shed tears of pure happiness. It was also so cool that they did a meet/greet afterwards. My daughter ran right up to young Anna and hugged her. A huge thank you to the actress for showing my daughter so much love and taking a picture with her--she was so happy! ​The venue had a decent sized foyer that comfortably accommodated concessions, raffle display tables, and a crowd of roughly 100 people (maybe more). I loved seeing all the themed snacks, stickers, gift baskets, and souvenirs. Prices to support the theater were very reasonable, and using Venmo for payment was super easy. ​I 100% recommend following YAT for upcoming show dates! It is the perfect way to support the local community and enjoy a fun family night out:)

My 9 year-old son attended the Holiday Camp during winter break and absolutely loved it. He has…read morealways shown a passion for singing so I was looking for an organization that might give him some practice and experience in this area. I walked past this store front in Grossmont Center and immediately registered him as soon as I got home. The price for the four-day camp is very reasonable, considering the cost of regular childcare and that the kids are there from 9AM-4PM. My son always ended the day enthusiastic about what he had learned, and excited to come back the next day. The showcase they put on at the end of the week for family and friends is impressive, especially since they only have a short period of time to teach both songs and choreography. My son's solo brought proud tears to my eyes! He said he can't wait to come back for the next one in the spring.

My ONLY two minor complaints is that the wardrobe was too "new" looking. I mean, the show takes place at a farm with everyone working in the barley fields and sometimes sleeping outside in the dirt. But the clothes look like they just bought them at Target and put them on. The second thing is that we were in row 6, but the stage is real low, so all the scenes depicting people sleeping outside or laying on the stage we were unable to actually see. But please go and see this fantastic well executed story. You will NOT regret it. Thank you again for a wonderful evening.

One of the best dance studios in the San Diego area…read more I appreciate their family-oriented vibe. It was the only studio that allowed me to take a class with my kids, which most others don't offer. They truly prioritize families, and their annual Christmas celebrations are amazing. Rare to find. I loved all five of my instructors. They balance professionalism, discipline, and an easygoing energy that makes you want to keep coming back. I also made a handful of friends there, which doesn't happen often. My classes in La Mesa were the perfect size, around 5-6 people, so there was plenty of attention and a personalized feel. Would highly recommend

Thanks to the dedicated director/choreographers who push him to be his best. He also was given an opportunity to perform at NBA stages with an aspiring artist. The environment is warm, inviting, energetic, and inspiring, with an atmosphere that encourages both discipline and creativity. My son even gets to be a junior choreographer. They highlight all their dancers and not just keep a spotlight on one. The owners are also very involved and want the best for their dancers, not only performance wise, but also in school and psychosocially. The high-quality training makes this studio a standout for anyone looking to excel in dance while also feeling at home and most importantly, be themselves. Very family oriented and highly recommended!

We were warmly greeted at the door, bought two small glasses of wine for a donation and mingled in the foyer with Zaquia, who also doubles as a yoga teacher at Sculpt Fusion Yoga where I teach. We chatted up some new friends and met some friendly Visionary staff. The performance space is intimate - with chairs set out no larger than six across and only a few rows deep, with the back rows on risers. Performers entered through a curtain at the rear and well-timed lighting in a variety of colors illuminated the performance. The show itself was a modern dance exploration of identity, relationships, connections and misconnections with music that echoed a past Americana that perhaps only existed in our imaginations. I found it visceral, poignant and heartfelt. Chun P. is not really the modern dance type - but he enjoyed it and we're both planning on coming back to Visionary for another show!

It's an hour long class of ballet and tap taught by Miss Bunny. Miss Bunny herself is very good and patient with the girls and really gets them involved in dance by doing age-appropriate activities. We pay $45 for four weeks of lessons which is pretty reasonable. She also doesn't have a requirement as far as what the dancers have to wear so they can be as creative as they want, even wearing Disney princess dresses! The only reason I gave four stars is because the studio is small and can use some updating but it doesn't get in the way of the dancing and fun. :-)
