Well. Ive been there many times for different services. I've gotten my hair cut, highlighted, a…read morefacial, nails and a special scalp conditioning. Now, I have to say we go there knowing these are students who are still learning. That's why it's cheap. I've had a couple good experiences but, mostly not up to par. Oh, I forgot I also had my makeup done for my daughter's wedding. That was a disaster! The girl made me look like a drag queen and it took her forever to do! When I got in the car I wiped as much as I could off and fixed it the best I could. My eyebrows were SO thick! The eye liner very bold and heavy. Another one of the girls cut my hair and styled it. She did a fantastic job. When I had my nails done, right when I got home I noticed the polish was pealing off on the nail. I just picked it all off. The facial, not great. I'm not real picky about color, so when they do my highlights I just except it isn't going to be like going to a high scale salon. The last hair cut I had there was horrible! After showing the girl some examples of the cut I wanted she seemed very nervous. Basically I just wanted the bottom trimmed and my head layered. She cut straight across at the bottom of my hair about 2 inches up from the ends not blending it. Then she was done. I started to say no I wanted it layered all over but she seemed so frazzled that I decided I didn't want her touching the rest of my hair. When you do go there, plan on being there for hours! It takes them super long as opposed to going to a salon. Everytime I've been there for a hair service the teacher has to come check the cut or color when it's finished. However, that last hair cut I got the girl just took the smock off and said I could pay. I don't think she wanted the teacher to see the end product. And I had a black outfit on and there was SO much hair all over it. She didn't even apologize. One more thing I've noticed is that when you go to a salon the hairdresser will make small conversation or ask you questions about your hair. How you like it styled and so fourth. If you want them to talk to you, don't expect that to happen. They don't talk very much. So, the hospitality should be taught as something you should try to do. I always give tips no matter the service. After all as I said before, these are students trying to learn. But if you don't want to be practiced on maybe just pay extra and go to a professional.

We were learning about Japanese steakhouse cooking and local Waygu beef, who knew we had local Waygu cattle in Central PA? Anyway, we do and it was delicious! The recipes were presented clearly and were easy to follow, we didn't get the email with the information as expected, but we did go home with printed packets with each recipe included. Much of the prep work was done ahead of the class, making it easy to follow along and enjoy the time spent. Everything was delicious and we were quite full by the end of the evening. It is BYOB, and many of us thought ahead to bring a bottle of wine to enjoy throughout the experience. We will be back to try another event, but from our experience, you have to be quick if you want to get the chance, the classes sell out quickly.

I am still a beginner and I have found that many ballet schools do not take adult ballet very seriously, but Miss Nadine does. Combinations are designed to develop and solidify good technique. Her corrections were frequent, helpful, and relevant to each dancer's level. The studio was bright and airy, the music was beautiful, and I'm certain there were more than a few current or former pros in the class. My classmates were welcoming and by far the friendliest I've experienced while traveling. What a wonderful experience -- I'm only sorry that I didn't find this studio sooner for my biannual visits to Lancaster.

If I could give this sham of a dance academy zero stars I would. I enrolled my 2-year-old daughter…read morein their Pre-K Dance class for 2 and 3 year olds. It was advertised as exploring creative movement. We get there and the older teacher was just immediately frustrated that the TODDLERS weren't listening. The class today was the last straw. My 2 year old was doing fine but when it came to mat time, she didn't like her legs being stretched to touch her head so she walked away from the mat with another child and sat on the wall. The teacher told her that she would need to leave if she didn't listen so my child stood up and walked towards me at the window that I was directly behind. The old teacher went up to her and the other little girl and in front of a room full of classmates, parents, and other children told the 2 babies that they were "done" and kicked them out of class. I called after and the old teacher said this was a structured class where they are teaching the girls dance. She said she was "removing the distraction." Meanwhile 3 other little girls were just laying on the mat not doing what they were supposed to do. A structured class for 2 year old toddlers, whatever that possibly means. She embarrassed those children who just didn't feel comfortable getting stretched out by strangers. They are also refusing to refund me the money for the remaining classes that of course my daughter will not be attending. What a joke of an establishment.
