My 8 year old daughter attends ATDW and I cannot say enough good things about the studio, the…read moreteachers or the owners. ATDW and the owners Michelle and Jerome could not be more different from the typical LI dance school. If you're looking for a studio where your child can learn from real experts (not just graduated former students), be groomed like professionals, be surrounded with positive & supportive influence and make great friends (both kids and fellow parents) - this is the place. For a brief background, my daughter started ballet classes at 3 years old at another school. We liked the school but the variation of classes beyond ballet was limited and most attention was given to competition dancers. If you weren't on the competition team or being groomed for it, you were not a priority. I've since heard from many friends that this is the case across many Long Island dance schools where the focus is on competition or the end of year recital performances. This is NOT the case at ATDW. This past fall my daughter attended an open house where she quickly fell in love with the studio, enrolled in 4 classes and has never looked back! To say my daughter's experience moving to ATDW has been transformational would be an understatement. Before moving to ATDW, she liked to dance but felt very insecure about her body, being very tall for her age and a bigger build. She was also struggling with some bullies in school and we were dealing with the typical elementary-school afternoon battles over homework, snacks, screens, etc. The changes we've seen in my daughter since moving to ATDW go well beyond her dance capabilities. The kindness and encouragement she has experienced from Michelle, Jerome, Miss Wendy, Miss Olivia and Miss Allie have given her a true passion for all things dance and performance. Her passion and love for attending ATDW have given her a shocking level of motivation for an 8 year old. Knowing she needs to leave for ATDW, she is motivated to do her homework right after school and she has a positive, active understanding of how to be healthy and take care of her body so she can feel better dancing. Her sense of self confidence has exploded in ways that have extended well beyond after-school dance - in her reading, her grades, her friendships and in-school activities. Perhaps most importantly, my daughter has met and made friends with kind and wonderful children whose parents clearly share the same values we do: kindness over competition, the value and joy of performance, respect, responsibility and confidence. The dancers and families that are part of ATDW feel like a community, particularly for students who take more than one class. Passing each other in the hallways before/after, they make friends with older/younger kids they aren't even in class with. The older dancers are positive and supportive role models for the younger dancers. The amount of joy they all have seeing each other is so sweet and at points comical... they hug each other like they haven't seen each other in weeks. ATDW is truly my daughter's favorite place now. She ended the 22-23 season enrolled in 5 classes and participating in the production of Alice in Wonderland. Looking forward to next season, she's now asking to add more. She can't get enough. We are so thankful for this studio and for the community of dancers and parents that Michelle and Jerome have created. Thank you, ATDW!

My fiancee (now wife) recommended dance lessons for our wedding, which I was hesitant about, but…read moreshe insisted I didn't look like a "schlub" during our first dance. While waiting outside the studio for our first lesson, we noticed a more experienced couple dancing extremely well, doing dips, lifts and the whole 9 yards. I looked at my fiancee and said "no way in hell will I be able to do that". Cut to a few months later, and I am the guy in the pictures below. Not exactly sure how that happened, but I do know that none of it would be possible without Kyle and Dance Reverie. Kyle is extremely patient and not only helps you physically for the dance, but prepares you mentally as well. For someone with two left feet like myself, Kyle not only made me look competent on the dance floor, but good enough for one engaged couple at our wedding to ask ME for lessons!? Could not recommend Kyle and Dance Reverie enough!!

This is the 4th daycare my son has attended since he was 1 and Romper Room is his favorite by far!…read moreHe always asks for his teachers when he's home, which makes me realize what a lasting impression they have on him and what a great time he has with them there. Compared to other daycares, Romper Room focuses more on academics, projects and encourages children to play together and share. My son has grown and learned so much ever since he enrolled into RR and he feels so comfortable and happy there, which makes it easier for the working parents who are always thinking about their children throughout the day. I'm a working mom so it helps a lot knowing that my son is in great hands, having a great time and learning new things everyday. HIGHLY recommend!!

Vinimos aquí para una fiesta de cumpleaños y los niños se divirtieron muchísimo. Es un lugar excelente, especialmente para niños pequeños (toddlers). Es obligatorio usar calcetines en el área de juegos, lo cual es bueno ya que hay niños gateando. Tienen un tobogán y pequeñas habitaciones temáticas con artículos de veterinaria, de doctor y cocinitas para jugar. También cuentan con un área separada para cantar el 'Feliz Cumpleaños' y una estación de café. Quedé muy contenta con el lugar. ¡Estoy emocionada por volver!

For the most part, everyone just kind of does their own thing which is good. Equipment looked a bit run down, rusty, kind of dirty, machine pads splitting and breaking apart. The gym itself is super messy, there are maybe 10 mismatched dumbbells on the rack at any given time because all of the equipment is just thrown all over the place - ex., one 30lb dumbbell here and the other is underneath a bench at the far end of the gym. The lighting gives you a Dollar Tree vibe - It's actually kind of sad and depressing. Locker rooms are a little crowded, maybe a bit less crowded during the day. Apparently this location will be going through a renovation period, so maybe it will be better when done. Overall experience? Wasn't terrible, I got my workout in, however, I think LA Fitness needs to hire better management and a better staff - a staff that will stay on top of certain issues and care about the overall gym goer experience. It seems like some of the complaints from years ago were never really addressed. A renovation would be nice but won't mean anything if you still have the same management and staff working there.
