    i bring my daughter to Tutu School in Long Beach and I've had such a great experience. Mis. Kate is so amazing and so patient with the children. I also love the structure of the class which includes reading a story and coloring at the end.

    I've been taking my daughter for the last month and we absolutely love it. Teacher Nix is amazing. She's kind, friendly, animated, and so patient. My daughter looks forward to every class. We're so happy we found Tutu school Long Beach.

    Update: we continue to LOVE Tutu School! My six year old has grown so much confidence through her weekly classes here, and of course, she's learning ballet techniques and having so much fun. We had her 6th birthday party here and it was awesome! We can't thank Teacher Nix enough for being such a fun, energetic, encouraging and clear party host. She commanded that room of six year olds with aplomb & magic, and our daughter & her guests had a wonderful, core memory-making time.

    We LOVE coming to Tutu School. I bring both my girls age 2 and 4. We came here after leaving a dance studio that was not a good fit for us. We have been here almost a year and this is an excellent fit for us. Our teacher, Miss Kate is patient, kind, and very skilled. My daughter's love her and are always excited to come to ballet to see Miss Kate. The classes are very age appropriate, fun, and interactive. I love all the skills my girls are learning here and we are excited for our second recital. Our first recital experience here was excellent. Both my girls got on stage with confidence and knew exactly what to do thanks to the quality instructions they received. If you have a little one and are looking for the perfect dance studio, come to Tutu School Long Beach!

    My daughters always look forward to Wednesdays at Tutu school in Lb with Miss Kate. The teachers know how to grab the kids attention and keep them involved. Really happy with the adorable school!

    The past year my 9-year-old daughter has been attending "Center Stage." As she had no dance…read moreexperience we enrolled her in an introductory Hip Hop class, which she loved. Soon after, she invited 3 of her school friends, who also attended Newcomb Academy to join the class. After the first year's recital they all decided to continue Hip Hop, additionally adding a Jazz class. Before I continue with this review, I must confirm we have had no issues with her dance instructor "Miss Emily." Emily was always kind, patient, fun and well equipped to instruct multiple dancers ranging in ages 7-9 years old. My daughter and her friends adored Emily and were very sad to leave her class. Unfortunately, a few weeks ago we had a very unprofessional, shocking incident occur with Leslie, one of the owners. When I picked my daughter up after class, I noticed that one of the dancers in her class was crying uncontrollably. Another mom from class was trying to comfort the girl while she waited for her mother. I walked over to see if I could be any assistance, but she was crying so badly she was unable to speak and tell me what occurred. Soon after my daughter and one of her friends who was trying the class to possibly join had no problem telling me what occurred. They let me know that while Miss Emily was changing the studio music Leslie took it upon herself to walk over to the classroom and reprimand, and yell at the class, and call out the student in tears for standing behind the studio barre. She screamed at the little girl to come over to her, sternly yelled in her face that she was "disrespectful, breaking the rules by standing behind the barre. She demanded that the little girl apologize to her. Additionally, she told the class "This was her studio, if they weren't going to listen, she would cancel the class, and they were all disrespectful." This resulted in the little girl running to the restroom, locking herself in the bathroom and crying for the remainder of the class. My daughter let me know that you could hear this little girl crying in the bathroom through the music the remainder of the class. Sadly, my daughter said Miss Emily, who was trying to comfort the little girl told her "Don't worry, Miss Leslie has made me cry before too." My daughter and her friends told me they feared the "old, mean lady" and felt so bad for their dance friend. Yelling at a child is NEVER acceptable, especially in a business setting. I have never once gotten complaints from Miss Emily, Leslie, or any of the other owners that this class had disciplinary problems or any other issues for that matter. Why Leslie thought it was ok to yell at the class, with empty threats and aggressive behavior I will never understand. Another mother that was present at pick-up admitted that she has seen Leslie yell at staff and dancers 2x prior to this incident. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! It's clear to me that Leslie has been getting away with abusive behavior for YEARS. I am truly disappointed that her behavior has been overlooked for so long. I started to re-read older Yelp reviews and realized she has several negative reviews. I am so sad I didn't investigate reviews further before taking my daughter and asking multiple friends of hers to join this studio. When I wrote the studio to let them know I would be canceling classes due to this incident and that I wanted a refund on my recital costume they responded with "Your check is in the mail." There was no apology, no explanation, nothing. We were clearly just a number to the studios pocket-book. Myself, and 4 other families have taken our children out of this school due to this incident. I would not recommend this studio! If you are ok with the potential of your child being screamed at or embarrassed in front of a class, this would be a great studio for you. It only took one incident for me to know this type of behavior is not ok. I really hope Emily realizes she doesn't need to put up with this type of abusive behavior and finds another studio to share her talent with.i

    This studio views students as a source of profit rather than as learners seeking to grow…read moreTuition totals $2,657 per year, which is a steep price for instruction that does not deliver proportional value. The advertised intro offer of $39.99 for two weeks is also misleading. It covers only two classes, which is not enough time to evaluate whether the studio is a good fit. Presenting it as a two-week trial feels disingenuous. Fees do not stop there. Students must pay additional charges to participate in performances, and costumes are not included. Families are not allowed to record the shows, which forces students to buy professional photos or videos if they want a record of their performance. Meanwhile, the teacher continues expanding to new studios, which raises questions about where the money is going Between the high tuition, constant add-on costs, and inconsistent instruction, this studio offers poor value. Students deserve transparency, structure, and respect for their investment. Unfortunately, none of that is present here.

Matt and a few other instructors make it seem like its a burden to have to help students. A lot of the equipment is also old and broken and students are then blamed for it. I honestly did not feel like anyone at CIEMT wanted me to succeed. The entire experience felt like I was being hazed. Being yelled at and demeaned is not a bug but a feature of CIEMT. Do not attend this school if you want to have a good experience learning. I promise you that you will regret it. Do not be fooled by the low program cost. I ended up taking another EMT class at UCLA and I passed without any issues. Please take your hard earned money elsewhere.

I went to their website and registered for the June course, paid the $250 fee, and only then noticed I had been enrolled in the May session instead. I never even viewed the May option, and this all happened within two minutes. I immediately registered again this time correctly for the June course. Since it was late at night, I couldn't call right away, but I contacted the school the next day to explain the situation and request a refund for the mistaken May enrollment. The woman I spoke with was incredibly rude, dismissive, and repeatedly blamed me, refusing to even hear me out. She said it's my fault and that it's none refundable and that I singed it. She made it clear that they wouldn't help. So, I had no choice but to dispute the charge with my bank. Then today, I received an email saying I was being refunded for the June class the one I actually wanted and was told I'm no longer welcome at their school for making a false dispute which is not true. Meanwhile, three of my friends registered with me, and after hearing about this experience, they've decided to go elsewhere. So congratulations you kept $250, but lost four students. I will be exploring legal action due to your unprofessional conduct and the clear issues with your glitchy website. Future students, do yourself a favor and find a school that actually cares.
