This is hands down the best dance school on Staten Island. Not that I should know, after all my…read moredaughter had not tried anywhere else but I would never let her go any where but here. The great reputation they have is well deserved and they really do care about each and every student they have. They alway have a smile on their faces and know everyone's name from the students to the parents. The recital is done so professional every single year and is held at the historic St George theatre. Which is by the way is also run by the same family. It has been been restored wonderfully and is a treasure of Staten Island. Pay them a visit ! The dancers have performed in Disney on Main Street. They have a summer camp as well. The prices are reasonable and might even be cheaper than some other studios.

My daughter has been going here for years and has had a wonderful experience. The teachers (none…read moreof whom are the directors children) are knowledgable and friendly. One of the best things I like about the school is the fact that there are no recitals. They learn technique, how to dance, not just enough steps to get through a few minutes on stage. The other parents are GREAT we all work together to do fund raisers for this not for profit organization. This school does a lot of charity work. The children in the theatre dance class put on a performance once a month for the seniors and children who cannot afford tution are never turned away. There are many scholorships availible. The director is attentive to the children and truley cares for them. If you get out of your car and socialize with everyone you would know that it isnt clickish. The reason that she doesnt want people parking in front is because security gives tickets to those cars. If she catches you out there she usually says something.

What an AWFUL experience…read more... Was excited to get back into yoga and was looking forward to sharing this experience with a friend. The good- people taking the class all seem very nice. The instructor knowledgeable in palates. The bad - studio smell like sweat that has not been cleaned up in ... ever. - the studio owner is unprofessional and rude and there is nothing "namaste" about her demeanor. - the instructor seems threatened and terrified of her boss (the owner) to the point of creating a false narrative Will not be returning. If you are okay with disrespectful behavior and just taking class by disconnecting with the rest of the world- this is a place for you. Disclaimer - I am a health professional with 30+ years of dance teaching experience. When your hot yoga studio forbids you from leaving the room during class, even if you felt unwell, it raises concerns about safety. To add insult to injury when the studio owner proceeds to yell at you, questions you says that by leaving the class was disrupted, and insults - that's speaks volumes about the culture of the practice. If I didn't leave, the class would have been even more disrupted with the instructor unable to teach at all because they would need to take care of the student instead of teaching, Furthermore, when the owner accuses the client that because of the client the owner could not complete their scheduled personal important appointment- that demonstrates concern for the owner's mental state. There are safety risks involved with hot yoga and it is the responsibility of the instructor and the student to ensure safety. Listening to your body is paramount: Regardless of studio policy, your well-being should be the priority. If you feel dizzy, lightheaded, nauseous, or experience any other signs of heat intolerance or illness during a hot yoga class, it's essential to take a break or leave the room. Same with dance -pushing through injury is highly discouraged as it may cause further injury. People are paying for the class, this is not a prison. No one comes to class looking to disobey.

I have seen other Productions as well in the last decade or so, and these young people would rival professionals on BROADWAY, and in the FILM Industry. My fave make up artist was the one who did Ben Franklin's makeup in Wagners production of "1776", to cite one instance of quality. If I had to choose between a Production in this College and a production on Broadway, I would choose attending a Show at Wagner. I give 10 stars for my experiences there!

The shows at this theatre always blow me away! What better place than to come see college kids…read moredoing what they love!! No matter a drama, comedy or dance attending a performance will never disappoint.
