It is understandable that you feel that every effort was made to rectify any issues expressed verbally to you or your staff. But your perception does not supersede our experience and how we were made to feel. I am not a perfect person nor parent, but I welcome growth in all areas of my life. I have learned valuable lessons in this season and will apply this experience to better myself and protect my child. As for the reviews, I only rate only on my experience. You cannot label me a liar because of my experience, no more than I can call someone a liar for giving your studio a positive review. I understand your feelings over what was was said, but everything I stated is the truth, experienced first hand. My hopes are for you and, anyone else reading this review, is to listen to your community. Log on to Facebook/ Yelp, Moms of McKinney, Moms of Allen, Moms of Frisco, and see that I am not alone in what I experienced. There are many other families who also have expressed the same sentiments over the same unfortunate events. At the end of the day it's about what's best for the children, a goal I'm sure we all share. Regardless of a positive or negative review, I hope the thoughts of your future customers help you measure areas you are doing right and areas that can and should be improved. I do not wish to engage in a tit for tat. I simply did what was best for my family. We will move forward looking for the best environment for our little girl. And I hope you take the opportunity to grow from this as well.

The classes went very well for the first few times and my daughter loved her weekly "ballet day". The problem occurred when it came to recital time. This dance studio takes their recitals wayyyy more seriously. Starting with their youngest class (2-3 year olds) you are expected to buy a costume (inexplicably skimpy at times for such young kids) and for both the recitals and the professional pictures (they set up a studio in the dance class) you are expected to put them in FULL MAKEUP. They call it "show makeup" and it includes mascara, pencilled in eyebrows, looooots of blush and bright lipstick. We're talking full on Toddlers in Tiaras. I was shocked. I can't condone that type of backwards behavior. We should know better than to subject our daughters to that nonsense. My daughter is beautiful, inside and out, she doesn't need makeup. Especially not at 3. We're sticking with gymnastics.
