overpriced and under skilled…read more My child was only enrolled here for a short time before I understood it was better to look for another school. They try very hard to show a positive and supportive image, but what I saw behind the scenes felt very different. Some staff and teachers act like they are very important people, almost like they copy the behavior from the show Dance Moms, but without the real skill. The disrespectful way they talked to and about kids and parents, and how little they seemed to care about the children's growth and well‑being, was very noticeable. One day when I walked into the studio, I even heard a staff member call the owner "the queen," and I saw how the others looked afraid to speak around her. It gave the whole place a strange and tense feeling, and I can imagine the kids also hear this kind of thing. The school offers many different classes, and at first I was excited to try them. But very quickly I saw that the teaching skills in all areas were not strong, and the teachers did not show much patience. It seemed like they wanted to blame the children. In some classes, the teachers were sitting on the floor yelling instructions or scrolling on their phone instead of helping the girls or teaching them calmly with proper technique. The costs also become high very fast. Tuition is expensive, and then there are extra fees for almost everything. They don't even provide a small snack for the children during several hours long events and recitals. The environment did not feel right or helpful for my girls. I strongly suggest looking at other dance schools and avoiding this one.

This, my friend, is not your average dance fitness workout... this is an experience in itself! There are different levels you can take. The most basic class is called "Break Down" where the instructor will literally break down the moves of a specific routine. At the Orlando location, Elisa and Renee are musical dance geniuses. Both are accomplished dancers and will totally rock your world with TONS of self-made routines. I have only taken classes from Elisa and Renee, but I know there are a few other great instructors that teach the classes as well. The dances are set to current, catchy and just plain 'ol freaking awesome jams. I'm not lying that it feels like you are IN DA CLUBBBB when the music starts pumping. The classes literally fly by! You have tons of fun, sweat like a PIG and leave with a big smile. I highly encourage anyone to try out a class. Just remember this motto... there are no mistakes, only solos!!! :-)

There were students at all levels (and all ages) in our classes, and since you swap partners with each dance, you get the opportunity to be a learner or a teacher each time. I was surprised how much I liked swapping partners - I felt like it helped me improve my skills and learn to adapt to different dancing styles, and fostered a supportive and light-hearted attitude in the class. At class end, Stuart hosts a fabulous dance party with a live band; previous students return and it's quite the party. I highly recommend this dancing class to anyone who wants to learn a variety of dances.

Just Dance Too Orlando rocks! I am a parent that has 2…read moredaughters attend JDT (just dance too). My kids love it! They both started as 2 extremely shy girls. They have burst out of the shyness more than I could have hoped for, literally! They both have made lasting friendships, gained confidence & are more disciplined. My oldest started at age 5 & has been going for 2 years now. My youngest started at age 4. I never thought they would actually dance when it was time for the showcases but each & every performance has brought me to tears! Location: off of kirkman rd in a plaza. Kind of central...I drive maybe 20-25min to get the kids there. Studio: clean, decent-sized studio on the 2nd floor. When you walk in is the directors desk & an small area for seating and a unisex bathroom. Then through the door is the actual studio...wood floors & mirrors. Director: Mrs. India. A former 14k dancer from Bethune Cookman. (I know, I know...even though I'm a rattler...anyhow, lol). This lady has talent & creativity pouring from her! She is stern ;) but she has a huge heart and special kind of love for each child. She & her staff teaches amazing technical skills which shows in the solid performances. The kids definitely have fun, they laugh and they cry...but they are learning important lessons that they can't even fathom right now. My kids love JDT and so do I! Besides dancing JDT has Halloween parties, holiday parties, end of the season get-togethers, and Mrs. India does something special for all her graduating seniors. Finally, each child dances in every show..and at the end they ALL get medals. There are different categories depending on age & skill: babies, juniors & seniors. Mine are both babies now....so practice is twice weekly for an hour....and the price is right! Lol. If you can't check JDT out in the fall/spring she also has an awesome summer program filled with activities & trips! Bring your son/daughter here and you won't be disappointed! Ayeee, JDT, JDT!
