If you stay there long enough, I believe your dancer (or you!) will find great fellowship/friendships. All the teachers are strong in different ways. They are good mentors to the dancers. The leadership of the studio has a clear vision for the organization. Cleveland City Dance serves a mission of making dance available to all sorts of dancers. They go an extra mile to share the benefits of dance not only with the families and dancers at the studio, but beyond. For example, now that the intensity of Covid has lessened, dancers are performing again in community outreach settings in different parts of the city. I truly believe that this organization teaches high quality, well informed dance technique in a thoughtful, intelligent way.

They will not refund for the recital that was wrongly charged for. They will not refund the card they mistakenly charged so the monies can come from me. They will not respond to me or let me know when money will be returned. Such a poorly managed business. I will never recommend a place that takes money from single parents that they are not owed. So I'm left a little over a month before Christmas paying for this recital that I don't have the money to pay for and they won't return the money. It's the right thing to do. I just don't get it. Do I have to beg for this money that you never should have taken? What do I have to do to get you to understand how wrong this is!!??

Miss…read moreDarcy's main focus is providing equal opportunities for all dancers/participants and allowing them to reach their fullest potential within a caring, non-competitive classroom setting. Our program is designed for the recreational dancer in mind, as well as lead those that wish to advance in the proper direction.

She bilked money from families who simply wanted their daughters to learn the amazing sport of cheerleading and has now seemingly ran away and won't respond to any of our txts and messages. Here is my and many others story: My girl signed up to do the Brookside Jr Cardinals Cheer program with Trutek Dance Co. within the first week of flyers going out(First Week of April). We then were not informed of any practices, fundraisers, or possible uniform cost til May 31st. Come to find out other girls in the program had already started practice weeks prior. The director then seemingly would cancel classes without informing parents and was teaching my girl basic dances, not the chants and cheers need for sideline cheerleading. She moved location with no notification to the parents. She then abruptly asked for uniform money with just one practices notice , mind you with no fitting for the girls, in the last week of July. We stupidly gave the money for uniforms and have still never received either, my girls personal uniform or a refund for it. She has now held the Pom-poms that the Brookside Jr Cardinals program lent her to use for the season hostage. We then went calmly to her new studio on August 19th to request either the money or physical uniforms. She told us that she hadn't purchased them yet. We were then asked to leave her studio while she was in the meeting. Once we left we, the parents, called the police to mediate the situation. She either lied to us or the police because she told the police she was simply waiting on the uniforms to arrive. Why would we, the parents, call the police if we had been threatening her as she so claims. We simply want her to do the right thing and provide us with the physical uniforms or the money we paid for them. I also found out that she canceled a memorial/ celebration of life put on to help out a family a wonderful woman with less than two days notice. She still hasn't refunded the mourning family their money either. So in conclusion I would not recommend a company that has stolen from children and a non-profit organization(Brookside Jr Cardinals Cheerleading). Oh, and a mourning family. Shame on you!!

We were so delighted to find Tutu School Strongsville! From the moment we walked in, the studio felt warm, organized, and genuinely welcoming. The staff greets families with kindness and familiarity, creating an environment where children feel comfortable and excited to participate. One of the things my son enjoys most is how personable and engaging the instructors are. They take the time to truly connect with each child-- learning their personalities and making them feel seen and supported. That personal attention has made a noticeable difference--he looks forward to class and leaves feeling proud of himself every time! The owners, Katie and Grant, are also wonderful. Their experience and passion in professional ballet and teaching dance is evident in everything they do. Their enthusiasm, expertise, and genuine care for the families they serve create a strong foundation for the entire studio. The instructors balance structure with imagination beautifully. They introduce real ballet fundamentals while keeping the experience playful and age‑appropriate. Their patience, professionalism, and warmth truly make each class feel special. The studio itself is clean, safe, and thoughtfully maintained, and communication from the Strongsville team is always clear and timely. Watching our son grow more confident each week has been incredibly rewarding. Tutu School Strongsville has provided exactly the enriching experience we were hoping to find, and we're grateful for the care, intention, and joy the entire team brings to every class.

Great job En Pointe Danse! The show was held at the Cleveland Public Auditorium which, though still beautiful, has seen better days. I wonder if there is a fund to cover costs of renovations? We bought our tickets on Groupon at a very reasonable rate. Downtown Cleveland was beautiful with all the lights, skating rink and bustle of people. Great to see so many folks out enjoying our great city! I believe Moscow Ballet comes every year. Next year...check it out and see our local talent as well. Unable to take pictures at the show, sorry.
