if i could select a 0 i would, all of these ppl leaving good reviews are half the problem here, ofc…read morethey will leave a good review after they are instructed to by Valerie and Delisa the owners, if the place was so good why in the world and their kids have been going here all these years why are they just now leaving reviews common sense, anyone in the right mind that has brains about them can see that, however ill share some of my personal experience with this place, they are highly unprofessional, not about the kids at all only the ones that sit in the studio for hours gossiping and talking about everybody and their children mostly the ones that do not care for the drama are the ones that get singled out and their children get thrown to the side made to look like the OutKast this place is nothing but trouble they allow other kids to bully other kids. Yes, kids are gonna be kids and not everyone's gonna like each other. It needs to be enforced that all kids should be respectful of others. That's not how the studio is if you have a problem and you bring it to Delisa or Valerie's attention they will put you off, my granddaughter attended here for seven years she poured her heart and soul into this place. She helped student teach there for free. She didn't get anything out of it was helping the teachers student teach. She was on every last ensemble team, except for clogging and she worked super hard, but her work went very unnoticed, I had complained last year about the teams that she was placed on because she was not growing at all and it's like she was being treated very unfairly. This place is highly greed, favoritism and drama definitely not family oriented at all, you have mom's literally sitting there telling their kids not to be friends with other kids there at this studio. It's not a kid problem. It's a owner staff and also definitely a mom and dad problem. I had a 300 pound grown man stand up and get in the middle of a conversation I was trying to have with the owner, and the owner didn't do anything about it, once again after my son and I left reviews because my youngest granddaughter also was on the ensemble teams for one year she was actually there three years. She got singled out just as bad as my 12 1/2 year-old did, thats when delisa got the clock together to leave good reviews, if you are a person that wants to be a part of the dance mom show and you like that kind of stuff. This is the studio for you and your kids. If you despise that show then I highly recommend you stay away from the studio because like I said, we wasted seven years lots of time and energy on basically nonsense. Stay away from this place if you know what's good for you, just the other day the studio had 3.7 stars and that was before we left reviews seems kind of weird now that they got five stars!!!!!!

Nothing compares to the compassion and loving atmosphere that Ms.Elizabeth has bestowed on her students. Ms. Elizabeth is a fantastic instructor being a dancer herself for many years.
