My daughter has now been dancing at DE for over 4 years, and has been on the performance and competition teams for 2 years and counting. She has had and continues to have an incredibly positive experience, is challenged by the fantastic teachers, and continues to grow as a dancer. She has learned about dedication, perseverance, and teamwork and she continues to be devoted to this school and her teachers. I recommend Dance Expression without hesitation and know many happy dancers and families at this studio. Check it out!

MEAN GIRLS. I enrolled my 7 year old granddaughter for Lyrical Ballet in November 2018, and I was…read morevery disappointed. On several occasions, I witnessed my granddaughter being subjected to bullying by several girls in her class. I told Tanya about the girls' inappropriate behavior, and I was told that "my granddaughter will make friends." Due to her lackadaisical attitude, I became extremely vocal, pulled my granddaughter from their school and demanded a refund, which they obliged. Additional complaints is that there is no guidance, communication, and the studio is sloppy and unclean. A child is not a commodity, and needs to be treated as such. Both owners are pompous regarding the amount of years that they have been in business. So, what does that mean to you, a prospective client? You will be subjected to ridicule if you make a complaint, regardless of the complaint, just because they have been in business for several decades. And, if your child is bullied, there may be no recourse. It seems that both Tanya and Betty Jean were angrier at me for bringing up this situation than being accountable and responsible for not having a no-bullying policy in place. On a positive note, my granddaughter is now in a clean, well-established, well-structured, fun, and disciplined ballet school, and she is thriving. She is very happy and can enjoy her classes and classmates without any worries.

It's in a Plaza so it's got plenty of parking and it seems like it needs an update some of the machinery he's either walk or broken, but it does have your standard Cardio studios and some movie, theater, action and freeway to go up to about 175 so overall a great place to go, but as far as Golds Gym club on a few things.
