September 2024 update. We still love Center Stage and spend most of our week there these days…read more My daughter who I mentioned in an earlier review loved dancing there so much she is now one of their company dancer. My son who had just started tried a few classes on and off and he found his thing as a hip hop dancer. Both kids love center stage and their teachers too!

What can I say about Kaye Lynn? Most importantly, my daughter loves it there! She first started…read morethere a couple of years ago for ballet and tap, but then she said she wanted to try hip hop, which they didn't offer for her age group. We tried another school.. and even though the teacher was good, it was a very dry environment.. no high energy, no interaction with the owner other than when payment was due (still hadn't met her by the time the recital came).... myself and other parents knew we would not return. So, I was so happy when my LO decided she wanted to go back to Kaye Lynn.. Miss Robin, Miss Jasi, and Miss Mary Alice are awesome! Miss Robin has the energy of someone half her age.. they're so fun and full of excitement and you truly feel as though they really love teaching your children. I mean, I sometimes want to get in there and start dancing! The best thing is, they don't nickel and dime you... if classes are cancelled for whatever reason, they encourage makeups in any of the classes when needed. I love it there and I actually enjoy going there multiple times a week.. and that's a big thing with my schedule. LOL.

Came here on a Sunday for my daughter's classmate's 6th birthday. I'm giving this place 3 stars…read morefor a few reasons: 1st when I walked in there wasn't anyone at the front desk to ask for help. There appeared to be two parties, one finishing up & one which just started. I assumed we were with the party waiting. (I got there @ 1:35p for the 1:30p start time) I asked my daughter if she recognized anyone from class and she said she didn't so we continued waiting until we saw an employee. Finally we see an employee & she explains the party had already started & the kids were inside playing.. 2nd reason for the 3 stars is that parents were not allowed inside the play area with the kids. I wish this rule was posted somewhere because I like to make sure I can watch my daughter at all times. The window only allows limited visibility. For the most part I was able to watch but this being my first time there, I would have preferred to watch for a few minutes before leaving her alone. 3rd reason, once the party was done playing, everyone received pizza & only the children were offered a drink. Not sure if its the responsibility of the parent throwing the party or if Head Over Heels provides the drinks but this was outrageous. I'm watching parents around me eat pizza with no drink to wash it down. I didn't notice a water fountain or a fridge with beverages to purchase. If there was water or a drink to be purchased, no one offered. I hope my review brings awareness to what I noticed as a parent coming here for the first time. What I liked about the place: There was a stool for kids to reach the bathroom sink & the bathroom itself seemed clean. The employees seemed nice & there were chairs available in front of the window to comfortably watch the kids. My daughter, age 6 had a great time at the party.

SEXUAL ABUSIVE LANGUAGE ALERT!!! GROOMING ALERT!!!…read moreWe had a horrible experience with the owner of this school "Miss Kim." Kim allowed a parent to lead a "Team Building" class after I informed her this parent "Kelly (don't know her last name but works at RW Children's Hospital,) used sexually inappropriate language to the girls, (outside her school setting,) GROOMING LANGUAGE and I wasn't comfortable with this "parent" leading a class my daughter had to attend. I was reassured "Kelly would not be leading ANY class" and she (Miss Kim) would absolutely be leading the class." I found out that wasn't the case! Not only did this parent lead the class without Kim present in the room, but during the class Kelly invited the girls to PLAY THE PENIS GAME!!!! Of course my daughter was mortified, and told me as soon as class was over, and once I complained, my daughter was ostracized and treated as if my 12 year old was the problem! Come to find out Kim and Kelly are friends outside the studio... so she was covering for her... Kim is from Staten Island and has a studio in NJ - I now ask myself why???

When we came here and found out this would not be tolerated from parents or kids, I felt so relieved. At our old studio, in the last year of the new owner, my child's dance skills regressed. In these past few months at Next Level, all of my kids skills increased tenfold, as well as their confidence, and their anxiety lessened. My daughter was still able to be a part of the competition team and have a solo even though we were new. They believe in my kids and they care about them. We love Miss Gina, Ms. Dee, Ms. Katie, Ms.Ashley, Ms.Sharon, and Ms. Carissa. And what we have learned from the ballet teacher, Ms. Larissa, and her amazing structure and experience with Russian ballet is unmatched. She is strict but my daughter adores her because she cares so much. In the past, she hated ballet, now she wants private lessons with her - she is a miracle worker!
