We've had two classes here and my son has learned and retained more than he did in 6 weeks of classes at another place. There is a large parent viewing space on the second floor where you can see every class, so no chasing your kids class around room to room, or fighting for space to look through a small window. There are cubbies for shoes and water bottles, it all seems very organized and makes sense. I'm very glad we switched to dynamic gymnastics.

I'm not the type to post negative reviews -- I've sat with this for nine months, reflecting and…read moretrying to move on. But I feel a responsibility to speak up in case it helps another parent avoid what we experienced. My daughter danced at Darla's for four years. For recreational classes, the experience was fine. If your child wants to take dance for fun and stay out of the competitive world, this studio might be okay. But once she joined the competitive team at age 9, everything changed. The culture on the team is toxic. I've witnessed moms whisper about how controlling Darla is when she's not around, only to fall silent when she enters the room. I've seen her speak negatively about other parents in front of team moms. She plays favorites, pits team members against each other, and regularly belittles dancers -- sometimes in front of their peers, sometimes in front of other parents. I've seen girls get visibly anxious the moment they realize Darla is at the studio. One day, I came in late to pick up my daughter, and a mom -- not a team mom, just another parent -- looked at me with wide eyes and said, "She just screamed at your kid." She looked genuinely shocked. That moment became a turning point for me. It hit me that someone who hadn't been groomed to think this was normal could immediately see how wrong it was. The rest of us had been slowly conditioned -- desensitized -- to just accept it. Seeing that mom's genuine reaction showed me how far off course things had gotten. Darla has publicly scolded children, held meetings to call them out, and asked their teammates to choose sides: "Who's right -- me or her?" She once pointed her finger in my face and called my daughter "irresponsible" -- in front of other parents -- simply because she forgot her jazz shoes. Even after the consequence of sitting out (which was fair), Darla brought it up again the next class and continued to humiliate her. These are young kids. She makes under-10-year-olds cry and critiques them harshly, even when she isn't the dance teacher. I've had multiple teachers personally apologize to me for Darla's behavior. She has even commented on girls' bodies, telling one young dancer that she'd "look better after puberty when she thins out." And while teachers clearly know this behavior is wrong -- because they apologize for it -- they still allow it, saying things like "She gets like that with everyone." That's not accountability. That's enabling. Yes, she gives discounts -- but only to her favorites. I know a mom who stayed because she simply couldn't afford to leave. Darla gave her daughter a financial break that allowed her to continue dancing, and this mom felt trapped. But think about that: if your child were in a relationship where someone was cruel but financially supportive, would you want them to stay? Abuse doesn't stop being abuse because it's packaged with a "deal." Another time, a family didn't pay for competitions the year before, and Darla just said, "Make it even -- I covered it." But that same grace isn't extended to everyone -- only those she favors. The favoritism is clear, and kids can feel it. Eventually, you see it happen to others so many times that when it finally happens to your child, you think, "Oh, I've seen her do this to others -- this is normal." It's not. And the worst part is how quickly we all became numb to it. We're at the end of the season now, and recently, while driving home, my daughter looked at me and said with genuine surprise, "I don't think I've been yelled at one time at this new studio." As I kept driving, a tear rolled down my cheek. The fact that I ever allowed an adult to belittle her -- and that she thought it was normal -- will haunt me. She didn't deserve that. No child does. And I already know what will happen after I post this -- Darla will most likely comment something negative about me. She'll say I "let the team down" because I left right before competition. You know what? I did. And I own that. My choice was to either finish the season at the cost of my child's mental health or walk away and teach her that her self-worth matters more than anything. I chose her. And I would again. Since leaving, my daughter has never been embarrassed, never been yelled at for forgetting a move, never been called out in front of her peers, never once been made to feel small. She dances with joy again. That's the difference. To the team moms who are still there: I don't know how you stay. Even if your child is treated well, they see how others are treated. That energy surrounds them 4-5 days a week. What message is that sending them? I really hope Darla is able to read this and see how we all feel -- and that finally, one mom was able to come forward with the truth. Maybe that can create change.

They were competitive tap dancers in school and have now opened a versatile studio filled with dance classes, yoga, fitness, and sauna/therapy. It is a great one stop shop for all things wellness.

Stephanie, our instructor was an absolute gem. Raw and real and hilarious and really good at what she is teaching. The best part about this class is that you are covered in glow paint and being your primal self under the glow of the black lights and it is pure empowerment. I am so glad I went. Take a dope playlist and a room full of women lifting each other up and I will absolutely sign up again. I hear that the buti glow class is once per month, so maybe I will see you there!
