Terrible Dance Studio, don't waste your money! In trying to find a dance studio for my 5 year-old…read moredaughter, I signed her up for dance camp at Dance Kraze and I was highly disappointed. The rudest, most unwelcoming environment I have ever seen- including the teachers and other parents. The Owner, Andrea, never once introduced herself the entire week nor wanted to meet the new families attending her studio. There was a 6 year age range for the camp, which I felt was far too great. I was a dancer for 16 years and have seen many amazing studios, this is certainly not one of them!

From working in a similar environment, I will say the majority off the staff as well as the owner…read moretakes a lot of pride in their work and makes their students a priority above what a typical business would. They deff go above and beyond with their efforts.

I have two children that attended this school for a few years. I will say that when we first…read morejoined the studio, we were very happy to meet the teacher and get started. Miss Heather was the teacher at the time and she was knowledgeable about dance, fully engaging with all of the children (every age group) and also put all the parents at ease. It was a small studio but it was packed with goodness. That was 3 years ago. Miss Heather passed on and the business was taken over by her sister. We stayed on w the studio and we quickly found that the new teacher, Haley, was not a trained dance teacher! We had signed a contract so therefore we were obligated to finish out the year (we will not be returning now that the year is finished). What I found in the last year with the studio was very unprofessional leadership, neither of my daughters were challenged or learned any new dance moves, the children were not put in classes based on ability but rather, to make it easier for scheduling on their part. Example, my 16 year old daughter (third year acro) was in a class with 5 year olds that were first year and still learning very basic moves. In my opinion, it became more about fundraisers, after hours wine parties, a place to hold a birthday party and such. It became time for us to move on when I realized that my daughters (who LOVE to dance) would moan and groan about going to class because they felt they weren't being challenged. Because of the lack of learning and being challenged, my daughter (younger daughter) would occasionally daydream and rather than pulling her back into the dance routine, the teacher called her "annoying" in front of the whole class. Sad to say that the quality of this studio has gone down, the teacher is not qualified and the ability to engage the students is also totally absent. I would not recommend this studio. I have read the response and I stand by my review 100%. I highly recommend visiting and seeing for yourself and asking for dance teacher credentials. Also speak to families that have gone before you, as I can guarantee there is not a 97% return rate. I know of more than 5 families not returning next year.

Very unprofessional. Manager/Owner tends to talk about everyone and share private information (who…read morehasn't paid tuition). Plays parents against each other. No mirrors in the studio. Studio is set up like a living space without any private rooms for the dancers. Dance teacher is an art major, did not go to school for dance (she did grow up dancing) but she took over the business her sister started. Three dogs and a rabbit live at the studio in a back room on a full-time basis.

I have danced at David Potter's since I was three. I danced there for fourteen years, through the…read moreend of high school, and came back this year after college to join an adult jazz/tap class. David takes an extraordinary interest in his students. He learns the student's names and personalities from early on. He learns the student's strengths and weaknesses and is able to individualize the help with technique as a result. It is true that we "learn how to dance, not just a dance". The focus is on learning the techniques of dance and a variety of steps that transfer from year to year and to any dance beyond the studio. Classes are very affordable, less expensive than anywhere else around here. As a child that allowed for the ability to try other activities in addition to dance while still continuing dance every year. As an adult it provides for an economical and fun exercise opportunity. The recitals are also very affordable with inexpensive tickets and practical costumes. The costumes are reasonably priced and able to be worn again. David has a long history of dance experience as well as a solid education in dance with a Masters degree. He loves being able to pass this experience on to his students. His life has been devoted to teaching his students how to dance. He takes great pride and joy in the accomplishments of his students, both in dance and in other areas. It is definitely worth checking out this studio if you or your child is interested in dance.

"Come on up to the house And your singin' lead soprano"…read more(Willie Nelson) We heard a whole lot of altos and tenors and sopranos singing in the House last night, and loved them all. One of my work buddies mentioned that a family member was appearing in a show here, so we decided to check it out last night. I had not heard of the Opera House Players before. I learned they had a pretty impressive history. They are a nonprofit volunteer-based community theater group dating back to 1968. Oh, and they specialize in musical theater and perform it exclusively, presenting four shows per season. Their shows are currently presented at the Enfield Annex (the old Enrico Fermi School) at 124 N. Maple Street, but they are planning a move to 100 High Street. We saw the show "Newsies" last night, and we were so impressed by the set, sound quality, orchestra, and the overall talent on the stage. There was a lot of talented folks up there, ranging from about 20 children, all the way up to a few senior citizens, like those who played Joseph Pulitzer and Theodore Roosevelt. Of course the real stars of the night were the children, who seemed to be singing and dancing all night long. A few of the kids capped off their dance moves with cartwheel, somersault, and handstand flourishes on top of their dances. It was quite an impressive display of young talent across the entire stage. Bravo!
