AVOID THE ADULT BALLET CLASS !!!…read more I was excited to find a ballet studio that offers adult classes in my area. The teacher Dieter Riesle told me that I could come for a trial class free of charge and added that "if you have had gymnastics, other dance forms, yoga or acrobatics prior, you may be able to work yourself into this level". As a 27-year-old former professional athlete who now does yoga and barre on the regular basis, it sounded as I would be able to do it. I came at 10am as the manager Hans-Jakob told me to, but it turned out the classes started at 10:30am. No problem! I waited. At 10:30am Dieter asked me how I was going to pay: cash or check. I said that he mentioned this first class being free so I didn't bring any cash/checks. He told me: oh, then you should SIT AND WATCH TODAY because "I don't want you to hurt yourself"!!! WHAT?!! So 5 seconds ago when you thought I was paying, you were not afraid that I would hurt myself?? The class consisted of older ladies, with one of them not even being able to walk straight anymore due to her old age! I told him that I took some ballet classes in Russia and I am an athlete in general. He did not care! He kept saying I would not be able to keep up with those older women. Wow, they must be retired from Bolshoi Ballet! I left the studio shocked and disgusted.

As a former Irish Dance Champion dancer and current adult Irish Dancer, i highly advise to dance at…read morea better school with teachers who care. Unless you pay big bucks for private lessons and multiple classes, you won't be looked at as a dancer. My instructor gave me feedback while texting most of the class that I am paying good money for. When drama happens at the dance school, they take it out on the students. A situation happened where end result was that the 2 adult dancers, myself included, representing the school at a major competition, not 1 teacher or family of the teachers would come to watch and support us. It's highly unprofessional and made my decision at regionals to transfer schools. School keeps losing students, you get reprimanded if you post something negative on social media thats not in the favor of the school, even though you are no longer affiliated with them. It's sad. Please go elsewhere where you are treated better! Take your money elsewhere where they don't have mandatory workshops hours on end that are additional cost.

I attended the grand opening event at The McGough Academy on Saturday (as a guest of a friend)…read more While I must admit I know nothing about Irish dance, the studio was very impressive - 2 extremely large dance rooms with modern equiptment/hardwood floors, etc., and also a waiting/guest area and office. It's also located in the heart of the Irish district in Yonkers. While there, I had an opportunity to meet the owner/instructor, Meagan. She was so sweet and obviously a very esteemed dancer (a professional dancer that competes worldwide and is TCRG certified). I also caught a few performances she gave during the grand opening and I was truly impressed. Lessons also seem to be very very reasonable, especially compared to NYC prices which are 4x the amount!

I would recommend anyone thinking about enrolling your child at this studio to stay far away. We…read morehad taken our girls there prior to covid and that ownership unfortunately sold to a new owner and to put it simply she is not up to task. There was specific incident that occurred in a class that was handled the wrong way. The adult instructor allowed and indicated to the only two girls "one being my daughter and the other a friend" in the class that they did not have to wear a mask which I am actually fine with considering it is only two girls and an instructor in a large studio. The issue is that the owner decided give a little talk to the children who were instructed by the dance teacher that removal of the mask is okay. So without finding out about whether or not the students decided to not wear a mask or were told not to by the adult she just assumed they took it upon themselves to remove the masks. The owner then decided to lecture me at pick up time about the mask policy. I had one simple question as to who allowed them to remove the mask and the owner only responded with "it is the studio's policy to wear masks in class," which is fine but than why are instructors telling kids to take the mask off if they want? Again, I could care less about the mask on or off. More concerned about the lack of management understanding a situation and placing blame on an 8 and 9 year old. And the icing on the cake is to than come out and lecture the parent. The other issue that day is that my daughter had come in the wrong attire "gray stretch pants instead of black and her hair was not tied up as required." My daughter takes some of the blame if not all because she should know and was told as such by me after the fact. As her dad I was not on the up and up about the strict dance gallery attire I assumed she would know and follow rules. The same day incident was handled again oddly by ownership sending a stern email to Parents in addition to a talking to after class. Quiet frankly the studio is not the same and enrollment is very weak due to obvious reasons. We had been charged 1100 dollars on Nov 22nd 2021 and this took place Nov 30th one week later. I told the owner that day my daughters are no longer coming here and I want a refund. Keep in mind the 1100 dollar charge is for December through feb 2022. So maybe this class counted towards 1100 dollar charge . If so one class used out of 1100 dollars. Dance gallery is refusing to give a refund. The owner of the studio is basically only concerned about money and I want people to be aware of that fact before you enroll your child or children like We had done. We tried to give this dance studio a chance considering the long standing relationship we had prior to the new owner but she is just not a good person and focused only on her bottom line. If I could give no stars I would. If some had paid in full for services not rendered yet and wanted a refund because they decided it was not the right fit at my business- guess what I do the right thing and refund over a thousand dollar to the client. The fact is this owner is desperate for money or just greedy.

This place is what dancing should be all about. They teach little girls from age 3 up to adults. Miss Stephanie, the studio's Director, is a professionally trained dancer with a gift for teaching and encouraging. She's simply wonderful. The studio is brand new, with real floating wood dance floors, and classes are small enough to allow for individualized mentoring. The whole staff is great, and the tuition prices are very reasonable. I love this place. Thank you Dance Gallery for rescuing my daughter from Ballet dispair!!! PS: Very well located across the Tuckahoe train station (we live in nearby Bronxville) makes for easy pick-ups and drop-offs
