My daughter was a part of this dance program for 9 months, and unfortunately, my experience was…read moreextremely disappointing due to a consistent lack of communication and organization. Throughout almost the entire season, communication with parents was minimal. As recital approached, there was no dress rehearsal scheduled for the day before the performance, and no communication about that until parents began asking questions during the week of the recital. Even more concerning, no information was provided regarding arrival times, check-in procedures, or what was expected of the dancers throughout the day. The only information parents received came after repeatedly asking, and the response was essentially, "I think 10:30 will work" for an 11:00 a.m. recital. In the entire 9 months my daughter participated, I never learned the instructors' names and never met the owner a single time. That level of disconnect is surprising and, in my opinion, unprofessional for a youth program. As someone who has coached youth programs for several years, I understand the importance of communication with parents--especially when working with very young children. Keeping families informed should be a priority, not an afterthought. I am grateful for the experience my daughter had and the enjoyment she got from dancing. However, I am completely dissatisfied with how this business is managed. It feels as though the owner may be stretched too thin between multiple locations and simply does not have the time to properly oversee and support the Bath location. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this studio. I hope this review helps other parents make an informed decision when choosing a dance program for their child.

This is a wonderful studio for beginners thru adults to learn the art of dance. The teachers are…read moretrained and certified to teach. Classes are very organized and informational for all ages. Students have said that the teachers make learning fun and at the same time challenging while learning. Don't waste your money going anywhere else if you want an enjoyable experience for you or your child to learn to dance. Teachers are always accessible to talk to and are very understanding, patient and willing to help students and parents with any questions or concerns. Their competition teams are awesome and have won numerous awards. There is also alot of one-on-one attention given to students during their classes. This is a school where the teachers really invest themselves in your dance education whether you are looking to be a serious dancer or a recreational dancer.

The friends she has made over the years have become her second family as well as the teachers. They don't push the kids to do more than they can do but they will make sure the kids are not just going through the motions. They have fun and make it fun for the kids. As well as the adults- I did a class a couple years ago and I loved it even going on stage lol. If you're looking for a studio that will teach your child the fundamentals as well as let them be their own person.. this is the studio for you.

They promote their studio as inclusive, positive & friendly but it hasn't been that way for a while. There is now an atmosphere of favoritism, bullying that is not addressed by the director.

I saw the most recent production of The Nutcracker with the RCB, and as always, I was blown away by the intricacy of the choreography and the thought that was put into every detail, from the costumes, to the set, to the lighting. This year, I noticed some changes to the choreography that I really loved--they are always striving to improve and find new methods of storytelling! This year, in addition to the performances at Eastman Theatre with the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, there were also performances held at Canandaigua Academy. I very much appreciated that because the tickets were at a much lower price point, which allowed me to be able to enjoy the performance, and I'm sure many other people who wouldn't have necessarily been able to attend the pricier performances at Eastman. I'm so glad that Rochester has such a thriving professional dance community, and I can't wait to see where it goes next!

Watching someone you grew up with step into their dream and absolutely thrive is something special…read more This studio is a true reflection of her heart--intentional, organized, and built with so much care. The training here stands out immediately. Technique is a priority, and it's taught with precision and purpose. Every class is thoughtfully planned so each dancer is truly learning and progressing, not just going through the motions. You can see that same level of detail in everything else too--from well-organized picture days to beautifully executed recitals that feel seamless and special for every family involved. Nothing is overlooked. Now that my daughter dances here, she knows the expectation--hard work, focus, and pushing herself to be better every day. It's not just about dancing, it's about discipline and growth, and I love that she's being challenged in the best way. And the passion? It's everywhere. It starts at the top and trickles down into the culture, the dancers, and even the little details like the apparel. So proud to watch this dream come to life--and even more grateful my daughter is able to be apart of something so intentional and inspiring.

New owner Katie is incredibly immature and has brought the overall moral in this studio down. Katie…read morehas created a toxic environment for students and parents. She has tried to implement ideas to add structure to the studio (which we all loved the idea of) but because she is so incredibly immature it has been more negative than anything. She talks terribly about parents and students she doesn't like (as if she doesn't think word gets around). She is quickly gaining the reputation of saying one thing and doing another. It's a shame because our kids have been dancing with each other for years and still have a passion for their craft. So we are forced to shut our mouths for the sake allowing our kids to dance with their friends they've become so close with over the years. Most of the parents are professionals and business owners themselves. And are genuinely shocked when they communicate with her. And even more shocked at how immature she is when she walks around the studio. For lack of better words, she's reminding us of everything we hated about high school. Please do yourself a favor and rethink placing your child in this studio. Go somewhere that you're comfortable allowing your child to spend a lot of time at. Because once they've established friendships and their place on a team it's nearly impossible to place them in a different studio. Thank goodness for most of the teachers there. But you better hold your breath if you get a teacher that's in cahoots with her because your child WILL loose their passion for all things dance. One more thing. They should've checked the tags for the costumes they charged $120 for last year. We know it was $9.89 from Shein. We ordered it to make sure and it was the SAME EXACT ITEM. Same tag and everything.
