I don't understand the low reviews, as my daughters attended Dance Gallery for 5 years. Never was a…read moreclass late or cancelled. It was very well organized. My daughters loved attending and made lots of friends. There IS a lot of emphasis on the annual show, but that's what the majority of parents wanted. Moms camped out (including me) to get the best seats as soon as tickets went on sale. The complainers have no idea what it takes, or the costs to put on a huge production. The shows were very professional, though long due to the number of participants. I did think the costumes were pricey BUT you have to realize they needed to find the costume companies with a big size selection as you would see they needed 20 or sometimes more of the same costumes to fit kids of all (and I mean ALL) sizes. Ms Rose also put a lot of thought into finding costumes that fit each group and embarrassed none of the dancers. And with so many kids participating, no one really wants to see your kids for more than 3 minutes or the show would go on forever. If disappointed by your kid's short performance, you could just sign them up for 2 classes next time or buy the video and watch them perform over and over. The instructors are great and I was always amazed at how professional the choreography looked. My only complaint was in the last year I had to pull my daughters out after their dance act to catch a flight. Ms. Rose runs a very tight ship and originally said no, until I showed her our plane tickets. Then of course she was reasonable. The wait backstage for the kids on performance day was long, but they got treats and were well supervised and were with their friends, and a wait backstage is truly just part of a dancer's life. It taught discipline and was only once a year. My kids were lucky to have such an experience and have even seen some of their teachers on So You Think You Can Dance. And if your kids stick with it for 5 years, they get a very nice trophy.

I attended a class with a bachelorette party so obviously there was a big group of us. After said class, i purchased a "Drippin' in Finesse" hat that they were selling. I let one of the girls in our party try it on and she inadvertently left it behind instead of handing it to me. When i realized i was missing the hat, we were no longer in the area, and with no means to go back and retrieve it. Distraught, I called Vixen in hopes that they could do anything for me. I was at least hoping to get my money back, as opposed to being out $28 and no hat. By the time i heard from them, we had left Miami all together, so i thought all was lost But on the contrary, they were sorry that i had left the hat and that they could possibly mail it to me if i would be ok with paying for the packaging fee! They could've easily said no to my request, but instead they went to great lengths to send me my beloved hat. Thanks so much vixen! I wish i lived in the area just cuz i feel like i would be treated like part of the family there. You girls are beyond great. Thanks so much for going above and beyond for me! I really appreciated it!!!

This academy has exceptional, experienced teachers who love to teach and foster the talent of their students. The owner Debora, who is truly one of the most passionate and dedicated women I ever met, is the heart of this academy: light-hearted, funny, energetic, always in a good mood and striving for perfection. She gives so much LOVE and you feel being part of the family. She is also my piano teacher - I am 39 and started to play piano around 4,5 yrs ago! :) They have several recitals and concerts per year in big locations here in Miami and everything is very professional and well organized. The new location in South Miami is spacious and modern, lots of rooms w pianos (even a grand piano) and other instruments, two ballet halls with special ballet floor and of course a band room. The academy covers literally EVERYTHING in arts, from learning instruments like piano, guitar, violin, drums, singing classes or musical production, sound recording, band etc to ballet, flamenco, cuban dance and more as well as visual arts painting, drawing, mummy and me courses and much much more.... Parking is right in front or behind of the building (always available). They also have a well equipped waiting room for parents w a TV and toys and homework desks for siblings. I highly recommend this place!

This complaint is regarding a dance studio where my daughter was enrolled as a dancer for nearly…read morethree years. Throughout that time, she was not consistently happy, and on multiple occasions we attempted to withdraw her from the program. Each time, the studio insisted that she remain, stating that she was needed and offering to keep her enrolled at no charge due to her talent. All payments were required exclusively through Zelle; no other payment methods were accepted. Competition costumes were priced at what appeared to be double their reasonable value, and we were also charged for competition classes that frequently lacked instruction because teachers repeatedly left the studio. This instability significantly affected my daughter's experience and contributed to her dissatisfaction. Eventually, we notified the studio that we would no longer continue. In response, the owner sent a letter threatening legal action unless we paid an additional $500. This demand came after we had already paid approximately $1,200 for competition costumes. While I understand that competition costumes may be non-refundable, it is completely unacceptable that the studio is refusing to release costumes that were fully paid for. Retaining paid property without justification is unreasonable and unheard of. Additionally, when attempting to resolve the alleged balance, we requested to pay via cashier's check to ensure proper documentation and proof of payment. This was refused. The studio would only accept cash, which raises serious concerns about transparency and business practices. Given the lack of professionalism, unstable staffing, restrictive payment methods, and the withholding of paid property, I find these practices disrespectful to students and families. It is not surprising that many dancers are leaving. A business operating in this manner should be held accountable.

We have been blessed to be part of this community for over ten years. The teachers, leadership and staff have been wonderful, providing guidance to me and my daughter as she progressed in her ability and grew in maturity. TAYB teaches more than dance, it teaches important life skills like delayed gratification and the role of hard work in accomplishing your goals. This fall my daughter will be going away to school, which led us to observe ballet programs at her new school, all of which fared poorly in comparison to TAYB. For the quality of instruction and the loving support, we will miss the TAYB community but we will be back during the holidays and will continue to support TAYBs outreach efforts through which they touch so many lives.
