This is the perfect setting if you want your child to learn the fundamentals and to be trained correctly. From what I can tell, all the parents feel the same way.

I'm looking forward to my daughter being with them for a long time

If there's one thing I love about this place it's how dedicated the teachers are. Mr. Alexei and…read moreMs. Ronna have such a true passion for ballet and teaching. My daughter had no prior dancing experience and has only been in their class for about 10 months and in such a short time, she's learned so much. The classes are small so the teachers can focus on ALL their students and provide quality instruction. The teachers genuinely care about their students and their passion for the performing arts is inspiring. There are dance studios all over town but we choose to drive 21 miles farther because IBTI is the best! Having a great tasting room just below the studio is just icing on the cake

Wendy and Amy are invested in these childrens entire lives and they care far beyond the dance moves they are teaching. The students and their families are an amazing testament to the type of studio that is run at SDS. Everyone is so nice and welcoming of each other and it truly is a big dance family. The students are taught so much more than dancing and it shows when you sit back and watch how they behave and interact with each other. I especially appreciated seeing how all of the older students are so nice to the younger generation who are all looking up to them with admiration. We were lucky to find SDS and I am very grateful for the growth I have seen in my daughters.

For the love of god save your money and time because there's wayyyy better gyms out there for cheer…read moreand dance! If I could rate zero stars I would! The owner of this gym is completely disrespectful and will drive you crazy. In our experience we were Harassed, threatened, and lied to by the gym owner Ashley. Let's start with the harassment and being threatened. My 13 year old daughter was on the cheer team which ended in March of this year. I let my daughter start to have a social media account that I monitor very closely. My daughter made a post of a cheer team she is now on (because it was known that we weren't returning for another season of hell at this place) that I reviewed and approved prior to it being posted. But because the gym owner Ashley didn't agree with the post she blew up my phone and my wife's phone at 9pm to get mad at us about my daughters post and threaten to kick us out of the gym over it. She continued to stalk my daughter's TikTok account and complain and harass us about every little thing. They even went as far as coming out to our car in the parking lot just to complain about it again to us more times than I can count. They are rude and vindictive and my daughter hasn't been there since March. Here we are all the way down the road in July now and I get a notification that this gym tried to charge me a monthly tuition fee today when we haven't been a part of that gym for 4 months now. So my wife messaged Ashley the gym owner and asked her nicely to please remove my card from the file and don't try to charge it again. How did Ashley respond? She responded angrily and threatened to send my daughters TikTok posts to her new cheer gym that she's currently at in hopes to get her in some kind of trouble all because she's mad that we can't stand Next Level Gym! This gym owner is all about high school level drama and it's pathetic! Now let's go over just one of the MANY lies. The owner made promises to the parents in the cheer program like how we need to pay so much money each so that she can bring in an outside choreographer to teach the girls a winning routine. We paid the money (which wasn't cheap) and guess what, we NEVER got an outside choreographer she just pocketed the money. So please, do yourselves a favor if you want to sign your kids up for Cheer. Pay the money to go to an All-Star Gym. It's the same price for an All-Star Gym as this Next Level place. That's what we did and we couldn't be happier!

They use to only have a couple of benches inside but I'm happy they added some booths. My family and I have been coming here for a few years and it's always a great experience. Their ice cream is delicious, and a personal favorite is their 50/50 freeze. The only reason I knocked it down one star is because they usually only have one employee working. This is fine when the store is empty, but when there are bigger groups it takes a while, so be patient. They also feature and sell work from local artists. This spot is a must try!

Dr. Pazo is a gifted musician, a responsive and consummate professional in his work. Our funeral…read morehome director connected us with Dr. Pazo as I requested a bagpipe player at the graveside portion of my mother's funeral this August. Mom (and I) have Scottish heritage and she grew up with her Scottish Dad singing Highland songs to her and in turn sang them to me. So it would be an understatement to say this music was a very important component of Mom's funeral service. Dr. Pazo phoned me beforehand to get a sense of what the service would be like and what our musical requests were. He was compassionate, kind, and efficient at a time when I was in shock from my mom's death but needed to call on my executive functioning skills for funeral planning. Definitely a challenging time but I was so relieved that the bagpipes would be played at my mom's funeral. When the day arrived it was an incredibly moving and powerful experience to arrive at the graveside and see Dr. Pazo in his full regalia and hear the haunting sound of the resonant bagpipes which filled the air. The bagpipes and the beautiful songs Dr. Pazo played gave a weight and power, a somber honor to my mother's life that I and my family will always remember. We grateful for Dr. Pazo's artistry, empathy, and power as he played the bagpipes. Some time after mom's funeral I watched Queen Elizabeth's funeral. When I heard and saw the bagpipe procession, I said, "I think we had a better bagpipe player at mom's funeral." That's how great Dr. Pazo is! List of Songs Played: Prelude: On Eirin's Green Shores, My Home, O Flower of Scotland, My Bonnie Lass, Skye Boat Song, The Isle of Innisfere, You Raise Me Up, A Mighty Fortress Is Our God Processional : O Danny Boy Commital Song: Auld Lang Syne Potslude: Abide With Me, Going Home

It's fun when all my favorite things are within walking distance of each other. Small but mighty, the game selection varies from a handful of pinball machines, to pool and skee-ball, with several of my favorite classics sprinkled in, such as Ms. Pac Man, Galaga, and Donkey Kong. They had some of Dave's faves as well, NBA Jam and Street Fighter II. Most classic games cost a quarter, pinball costs a dollar, so standard prices, nothing too expensive for what it is imo. There's a change machine next to the small seating area toward the front door. When we came through last weekend after eating at Thai Kitchen next door, it was medium crowded close to 7 at night. Folks were coming from Lodi Comic Con, so I don't have a grasp on when it's busy here vs not. Anyhow, a crowd meant waiting awhile for drinks as there was just one bartender doing her best. I think they should have at least two for a weekend evening, but that's just me. Not the one bartender's fault regardless. They have a list of specialty cocktails to choose from, but I went with my usual. We had a good time with what change we had on us. I love pinball but I'm pretty bad at it so that dollar doesn't go very far. They had the Godzilla machine, and that's a favorite of mine. I only ran into one game that wasn't working, but it gave me my quarter back so that's a win win. Overall solid date night spot, and I know we will be back soon. I love that we have an arcade so close now! One note I would add for improvement: please consider more drink stands! Hard to play with nowhere to put a drink, unless in shifts. I did see some, but more would be awesome.
