Excellent dance studio!! We are so happy we checked out the studio after moving to Parker. After…read morechecking out another studio, we felt welcome the minute we walked in the door. Having a boy that dances unfortunately isn't common and can make it difficult to feel welcome in a dance studio. The staff and owners at Studio 9 are truly the best! He takes tap, ballet and hip hop classes along with a boys only ballet class!! This has allowed our son to grow as a dancer and learn partnering. He loves the teacher which is great because keeping a group of young boys moving isn't easy! He recently performed in his first show at Studio 9 and it was a first class production. The backdrops and props were top notch.

The adult punchcard system makes it easy to take classes when you can, and not worry about missing classes with a busy lifestyle. They put on 3 different shows a year, so have amble opportunity for students young and older alike to perform. A well-organized, well-taught studio. I highly recommend.

Unfortunately there are not many dance schools in Castle Rock but I would not recommend Castle Rock…read moreDance Academy to anyone who wants a fair, supportive, and professional dance environment. My children experienced blatant favoritism, where the same students were constantly given opportunities while others were overlooked, no matter how hard they worked. The class leveling is a complete mess, students with vastly different skill levels are lumped together, making it impossible for anyone to truly progress. When their regular instructor is unavailable, the kids are often taught by high school students who are given too much power in this school. While these students are lovely, it feels more like I'm paying for babysitting rather than a real dance education. I believe this is closely tied to the owner's lack of maturity, which affects their ability to run a business and hire qualified dance instructors. The instructors rarely provide meaningful feedback to help students improve, leaving them to guess what they need to work on. The "highest ranking" ballet teacher who is also good friends with the owner, is extremely condescending and rude to anyone who isn't one of their favorites. More so, the teachers are immature and not properly trained, and openly discuss students with other students, which is completely unprofessional and damaging to young dancers' confidence. The schedule is never provided in a timely manner and constantly fluctuates, leaving parents at the mercy of the school's availability rather than allowing for proper planning. We were constantly told the schedule is coming out on X date, registration is coming on X date and this rarely happens and is usually delayed weeks. If you truly want your child to learn proper dance technique, and grow as a dancer, look elsewhere--this school is more about instagram than an actual dance education.

If you want a studio that is fair and challenges you this is NOT THE PLACE!!!. If I could give this…read moreplace a zero I WOULD!!!. my daughter experienced favoritism with her teachers over looking her and other student. The same person would get favorited by getting special parts multiple times in a row and getting most of the attention. My daughter has lost ALOT of passion for dance and doesn't want to go her anymore.And they're not trying to hide it. The studio owner best friend will be rude and inconsiderate when the student is not her favorite. The leveling is all wrong, they put girls that can do AMAZING things and others that are not as excelled as others. They are not understanding of your home life. They make you sit out in class when you don't meet their behavior expectations when your the one paying them. My daughter came home crying or would dread going to dance. Certain Teachers make the class a competition. The teachers also talk about particular students right in front of them and make them feel bad and that they are not good enough. Instructors provide mean feedback. More so, the teachers are immature and not properly trained,and openly discuss students with other teachers in public which is damaging to a young dancers confidence and passion for dance. They also focus more about instagram than the dance education. DO NOT SEND YOUR KID HERE!.

The instructors are super supportive and we've found they give back to the community by putting on events and doing fundraisers to help other teams compete as well. They focus on helping your kid dance with your kids personality, not "parroting" movement. They teach the fundamentals but encourage your child to find their own spirit and style. After going to a string of "commercial" studios who just teach kids to be cookie cutters, its refreshing to find someone helping your child actually grow into their own.

The first time I walked through these doors, I was greeted by extremely welcoming teachers and students, and continue to feel included, challenged, and extremely inspired. Owners Chase Evered and Tommy Talybov show by living example through teaching, training, and battling, that they are passionately dedicated to sharing the culture and essence of hip hop with the youth and adults. The teaching artists and guest teachers at this school are not only an embodiment of the phenomenal power of breaking and hip hop, but also are experienced educators who are enthusiastic about teaching others.

Favoritism is their talent.

I was a past student there and I have something to say about spotlight. Some of the things are good…read morebut most are bad. The good things were that they offer a good range of classes from tumbling to acting, I only took acting and singing classes, they also do a lot of charity work and take groups to fun locations to sing. The bad things have scared me for life. I always felt as if I was not as good at singing or acting then the other kids, the vocal lessons started off in the main performing room were you would do vocal exercises and group songs then Teresa and Ashley would separate the kids into two groups, which I think is highly inappropriate because some kids struggle with confidence levels like me and I put on a shell that looks confident but I really struggle with self control so it was hard for me and for other kids. Another thing is that Ashley and Teresa put a front up saying that they don't try to make kids perfect when I think they do they also choose favorites ( I know every kid says that the teachers have favorites but in this case there where favorites) I always felt I was never up a favorite kid because they treated other kids differently. Amber who is a family member and student at spotlight is treated better then most kids and I know she has epilepsy and has a service dog for a reason but amber would bring her dog up to the stage and sing with It making the dog jump out of her hands and make a distraction also I'm afraid of small dogs and they give me bad anxiety so that was not helpful also they would hand out stickers to the "better" kids which again causes problems. The acting part was the same with the favorites. I remember going home everyday after those horrible classes crying. I have to go to therapy for anxiety and self esteem and when I went to spotlight they got worse Theo
