Both girls have grown in maturity and grace under the direction of Ms. Sandra and Ms. Ariel, co-owners. Focus is placed on development of the whole person at PAE. Each one is treated with dignity and value not just in what the studio can gain from the dancer enrolled, but also in what the individual student can gain for his or herself. Dance technique is a major focus but so is working towards being a better person in lots of ways (ie. commitment, work ethic, and kindness). My girls are genuinely loved and this has benefited not only them, but our whole family. Many kinds of dance is offered here (call for specifics) from basic/beginner instruction to advanced. A recital is given in June to show off to family and friends each dancers hard work. They offer a Troupe that performs for community and charity events as well as a competition Company (by audition) for the more serious dancer. Emphasis is given to each Company member supporting and encouraging their fellow dancers while working towards and exhibiting each one's personal best. If you are looking for a family-friendly studio that has high standards, is modest as well as contemporary, Performing Arts Empire is worth investigating. We have been very blessed and it was a wonderful experience for our family.

I wouldn't recommend Brooklyn Dance Academy to a friend. My daughter was enrolled in the 2 year old…read moreSaturday morning class at 10a. I wouldn't recommend BDA for the following reasons: 1. The kids practice the same exact thing every weekend, same songs, same dances, with no variety at all. I would expect some sort of lesson plan that repeats every 2/4 weeks or something of the sort. After some time my daughter was no longer engaged in the classes and didn't even want to go to dance class because it wasn't exciting or engaging. 2. For months the classes would start 5/10 minutes late and end 5 minutes early. This was quite frustrating considering it was only a 30 minute class. I spoke to the owner about this issue and classes started to last 25 minutes instead. However, I would expect this to be the standard, not something that's only corrected with complaint. 3. Classes are canceled on short notice, today with less than an hour notice to class start time (and rather frequently). Yes a make up class is allowed mid week but some of us can't make class during weekdays. 4. Myself and a few other people arrived 15 minutes early for their first class only for no one to be at the front desk to help. I personally spoke with the owner the week of my daughter's first class and she said she would be in to help with the process. She was no where to be found and parents were calling the owner to figure out how to help onboard us. No hard feelings here, I just expect more professionalism and will continue elsewhere if my daughter would like to participate in dance again.

Our daughter has been dancing at CDA for the first full season, and we couldn't be more pleased…read more The instructors sincerely care about their students and encourage them to perform to their full potential. They motivate their dancers to push the boundaries, both mentally and physically, in order to improve all of their dancing abilities. CDA prioritizes academic instruction, which has helped our daughter flourish in both classroom and studio settings. Ms. Natalie, the company director, has been an excellent mentor and our daughter highly values her leadership. While they work hard on their competition techniques, she reminds them to enjoy the experience and always fun. Not only do the girls support each other, they've become like family and it makes the wins all that much sweeter. We are so proud for all they have accomplished in the first year. We are confident that our daughter will cherish the memories she is making while dancing at CDA. If you're looking for a wholesome environment for your child to grow as a dancer, then I highly recommend you give CDA a try.

My first experience in ballroom was in a try-it-out-for-free class at UC Davis taught by Ikhlas…read more One of the most outstanding memories of my first impression of him was when he was teaching the leaders (mostly boys) how to dip their followers (all girls). I don't remember exactly what dip he taught or how he taught the technic, but what I do remember is him saying, "If you're going to fall, what you do is go straight down to your knees, you pull her into your arms, and protect her. You do not drop her." Needless to say, I joined the class, and eventually joined the dance team at the studio he taught at at the time. Ikhlas is elegant on the dance floor and off. He has a way of making you feel special, like a specific individual, rather than "just another student," and he has a genuinely good personality. If you're wondering about his dance skills, all I can say is that you won't be disappointed. He can be masculine, more masculine than any other male teacher I've come across. He can also be elegant in a more delicate, feminine way, so much that it can trump almost all of the female dance teachers I've come across, too. Ikhlas is a great dancer, he teaches dance in a way that's easy to understand and learn, and he's a great person altogether. To bring it all together, Ikhlas is an amazing teacher.
