Excellent place with excellent teachers. Open to all levels of dance. They do competition dance and win a ton of awards, but since our schedule doesn't allow for that, my kid still takes dance and performs in the recital. Awesome place

My daughter danced there for 4 years, took tap, ballet, and jazz. Jazz and tap teachers were always great. Ballet wasmeh. The first year the teacher left halfway through, ended up with a replacement. Half the girls/dancers never showed up each week. The only time they were all there was the day of the recital. The 2nd year it started with a teacher who left, another came in, then left. One of the students graduating that year finished out the year and had to quickly put something together for the recital, they had about 2 months left to put something together because after months of classes, they still didnt start learning a routine. Again, most of the girls never showed up and were only all together at the recital. We didnt see a 3rd or 4th year for ballet because we never knew if there would be a teacher and didnt want to waste any more money. Which leads me to the next disappointment. Theres a huge emphasis on joining a competition team and those girls that never showed up to ballet were competition girls. When they did show, they would goof around, leave class to use the bathroom or drink water, or simply sit down because they didnt feel like dancing. They showed up wearing whatever they wanted (sweatshirts, sweatpants, etc.). When they were told to dress appropriately, the moms (who were very loud and disruptive) made a snippy remark that, Next week you have to dress up in your pink leotard with little tutu clearly making fun of my daughter who was always appropriately dressed (in a pink leotard) wearing a ballet skirt. Lastly, those same competition girls were bullies (like their mothers). The first year of ballet, there was a girl who you could tell had some delays (I think she had autism). The snippy little competition girls locked themselves in the changing room, when the other girl followed them, they told her she couldnt come because she was weird and they didnt like her. The other girl asked them kindly to play with them and they laughed and ran away. The girls mother had to say something because the moms of the competition girls were just as bad. The whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth. My son now wants to dance, but I will be searching for a different studio for him.
