I have danced at ASA for 5 years and I love it here. I don't know where I would be without ASA ( a…read morestep above dance academy). I don't now if I would be dancing and I am very happy to be at ASA because I have grown so much as a dancer and as a person. I have done amazing at all my competitions with my solos, duets and groups. I feel like Shannon ( the director and owner of ASA) really spends as much time back stage as possible so I can go on stage feeling confident in what I put on that stage. I love ASA.

WARNING: NOT LGBTQ+ FRIENDLY…read more My girlfriend and I came here for their beginners salsa class for a date night and had an unfortunate experience with the instructor, Carl. He gave us a hard time for wanting to dance together and called us out mid class saying "well usually it's men as leads and women as followers but hey, it's 2025, who am I to judge." It was uncomfortable and unnecessary to call us out when we just wanted to be treated like what we are...a normal couple on a date night. I reached out to the owner afterwards to see if they could amend the situation and sadly got no response. I wanted to make sure other queer couples didn't have the same experience as us. We will definitely not be returning and will be sure to let others know about our negative experience.

From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed -- whether you come alone or with a partner, it truly feels like joining a dance family. The studio itself is warm, vibrant, and incredibly supportive. As a former dancer, I've experienced some stressful environments in the past. After not dancing for nine years, returning to movement at The Dance Lab has been so refreshing. The owner and instructors are encouraging, positive, and focused on making dance joyful again. The studio is welcoming for all ages, and there are also parties and fun events that make the experience even more special. The Dance Lab is a place where you can learn, grow, and genuinely enjoy dancing. If you are thinking about dancing for the first time or returning to dance, this is your sign!

BFAC hosted the Applause Talent dance competition on March 7, 2020. The venue was too small for…read morethis event. Parking was at 110% capacity with every possible curb utilized. The main seating area was packed. Yet, they were reluctant to open the balcony. To cap it all off, a dumpster behind the facility caught fire. People were sprinting out the doors to move their cars. The fire department came and put it out. But, then the HVAC system started to pull smoke into the auditorium. Everyone reeked of a fire smell. Just a terrible experience. My advice to BFAC - know your limits.

My three and a half year old niece loves Lady Gaga. So of course she loves to....Just Dance!…read more Every now and then I'll accompany my niece, Madelyn to her weekly Saturday morning dance class lasting about 45 minutes. About three teachers, eager teenage girls, lead this class of 3-4 year olds in basic but most importantly fun dance exercises. Teachers here are patient and truly take the time to make sure the kids are learning the proper forms while making it fun at the same time. My favorite part is to see my niece holding on to the bar bending into a plie with her frilly pink tutu. Parents are able to see their little ballerinas in action through a one sided mirror that looks in the dance studio. I definitely suggest arriving at least 5-10 minutes early so you get a good seat on the "viewing bench." Parents are typically not allowed into the class, but I've seen exceptions made for children with severe separation anxiety. As a parent, or even an aunt, it's easy to forget to bring this that or the other to class. Thankfully, both ballet and tap shoes are available at their gift shop for rental free of charge to children enrolled in classes. I cannot wait to attend the recital at the end of the class!

Tom is friendly and genuinely patient with students -- even when frustration sets in. He is very adept at keeping lessons encouraging. He's also proactive about bringing in outside coaches to keep refining his competitive students' style and technique, which has made a real difference in our growth as dancers. My daughters both take lessons and compete with Tom as well, and he does an excellent job tailoring instruction to fit their ages and skill levels. Whether you're looking to compete, prepare for a special occasion, or simply want to try something fun and new, Sterba's DanceSport is a fantastic place to learn. Highly recommend!
