I really wanted to love this studio, but unfortunately, my experience fell short in several key…read moreareas. Facility The location is very inconvenient. Parking is a nightmare, especially twice a week on a busy, narrow street. The studio does not adjust practices during major local events or festivals, forcing parents to park blocks away and walk. The interior feels outdated and poorly maintained. For a studio that's been operating for years, I expected to see investments in updates--such as additional seating or a viewing window for parents. The entire facility could benefit from a deep cleaning. It's not as polished as I hoped. A major concern is the placement of a "security camera" right above the changing cubicle. While I understand the intention, it raises privacy concerns about what is being captured. Instructors The instructors we encountered were kind and welcoming, but one seemed disengaged at times. This lack of engagement seemed to trickle down to the kids, resulting in frequent class disruptions and distractions. Business Practices Classes are overcrowded for the number of instructors available. One teacher per class is insufficient for the size of the groups. The performance fees feel excessive given that costumes are reused. There's little transparency about where these fees go. The studio gives the impression that their primary interest is in bringing in as much money as possible rather than focusing on being a truly well-established organization. They seem more interested in appearing polished and reputable rather than actually functioning as a well-organized and professional institution. Example; The studio closes for 1/2 of the month in Dec (Mon after the Nutcracker and again from Dec 23- Jan 3), however the monthly rate is not prorated, and in addition to that monthly rate, you have performance fees. We paid Double in that month, for reduced services. The admin staff is disorganized, forgetful, and often lacks the knowledge necessary to provide clear information, which adds unnecessary frustration. Performance Day Organization Performance days were chaotic and poorly managed. The coordinators were rude, dismissive, and lacked clear communication or direction. Parents trying to ensure their children were in the right place were met with unhelpful or outright nasty attitudes, which made an already stressful day worse. It also felt like the younger dancers were treated as "extras" rather than valued performers. They were often spoken to dismissively, which was disheartening to witness as a parent. It is unfortunate that this studio feels more focused on appearances and financial gain than on providing a quality experience for its students and their families. I hope they address these issues to better meet the needs of the community they serve.
