Met Dance is my favorite dance studio in the Houston area. No, their studio is not shiny and four…read morestoried with floor to ceiling windows like Houston Ballet. No, they don't have multiple classes running every hour of the day in multiple studios. But Met Dance has been around for a long time (they're celebrating their 30th anniversary this year) and it is obvious that they are an integral part of Houston's dance heritage. I have never taken a class here where I felt judged by my skill, my body, my outfit, or anything else. All of the instructors I have taken class with (mainly the ballet instructors) are amazing and each have their own unique strengths, so you really cannot go wrong with any or all of them. Roberta is an efficient instructor who runs a solid class; Alisa is great for beginners as she is thorough with breaking down steps; Michelle is kind and encouraging; Dominique is lovely and gives the BEST grand allegro combinations; Pattie is an absolute queen and strikes a great balance between perfecting your technique while also developing you're a artistry. Michelle and Pattie also run pointe classes for adults who are interested in getting on pointe, and all of the instructors I've taken class with are agreeable to me doing barre en pointe since the pointe classes don't fit in my schedule. Most of them are beg or beg/int classes, but the instructors trust you to modify as needed. Last but not least, the community at Met is incredible. The instructors remember your name, your story, and welcome you warmly every time. I'm glad to have found this dance family in Houston :)

Loved the adult ballet class I took here. They definitely help you advance your techniques…read more Instructor and students were all very nice and welcoming. Parking was easy.

Recently began taking intermediate level salsa dance lessons here. Overall I give 4 stars based on…read morethe location, instruction, reasonable cost of lessons, and spacious venue, as well as a very friendly atmosphere! Hector, Sarah, & Claudia Vasquez are the instructors. Hector is a straight to the point person, and keeps the class moving on schedule. We were able to knock out a fairly complex dance routine in one hour. I consider the routine upper intermediate considering the speed of the steps required to finish the pattern. If you are new to salsa, this would have been a difficult pattern to figure out. We had time to practice during the lesson with multiple partners. You don't need to bring any dance partner with you, many of the students came solo. The lesson started at 9:30 pm on Tuesday and we finished around 10:30. What I really liked was they started playing music right after and opened the dance floor to practice some more. And they offered wine, crackers, and cheese to socialize & schmooze as well. Nice touch. CultureBeat held a salsa social dance here last night. It's a BYOB with $10 cover, and Although the rain was pouring, people were flocking in. Lots of dance space, and slick dance floor. They played salsa, bachata, and kizomba as well... And again great atmosphere! Worth mentioning, the venue has its own parking lot however, the building is located east of down town in a not so great neighborhood, and that's the only reason I did not give a full 5 stars. Otherwise, as I always say, Viva La Salsa!!

The feedback that…read moreI am getting about Dorian's Creole Soul food, D-Ray Enterprises decorations, Kakes by Karen, VJ's Fruit Displays, Jay Aubrey's Photography, Parties of Elegance photographer, and the Level 1 Band have all been superb!!! My experience with them was pleasant and professional. They exceeded every expectation. Many people were in awe of the venue, "The Studio" where everything was 1st class. However, it grieves me to report that I personally would not recommend the use of this facility. Unfortunately, working with Mr. J.R. was difficult. He consistently over promised and under delivered. He promised all day access to the facility, but eventually said that He wouldn't open it until 5p.m. for my event starting at 6p.m. It took a frustrating conversation to get him to agree to let my caterer, decorater, fruit display coordinator, and cake decorater in to set up from 11 to 1pm, but of course none of the food items could be put out that early. Some professionals were coming from out-of-town, others had to miss church, all had to go to the facility twice, both morning and evening to get it all done. He promised the use of all rooms at the location as a part of the package, and I was able to ultimately use them, however, only after frustrating negotiations about already agreed upon and paid for services. The feedback that I received from the professionals that needed to set-up was also negative concerning Mr. J.R. They reported him to be arrogant, with unreasonable demands, making comments that they found difficult to overlook. He also reportedly made uncomfortable advances towards one of my married guest. The Studio gets a thumbs up, but Mr. J. R. is bad for business. For as long as I have been on Facebook, I don't recall making one negative post, but I felt it my duty to warn.

For $15 I don't think the view was that bad. We went for the "Rock, Roll, & Tutus", I love classical ballet so it wasn't what I was expecting but it was good. Didn't really care for the tap ballet performances. It's pretty long so be prepared to sit for a long time. I'm giving it a 3 because of the RUDE customer service. Purchasing my tickets over the phone was a hassle. Secondly, me and my friend were interrupted TWICE while talking to another couple by an employee who wanted to check our tickets. We were practically followed every time we got up during intermission. The employee did not bother checking anyone else's ticket in the area which was strange. It was such uncomfortable experience!
