The studio focuses on good technique and it shows in the growth of the students who train there. They are affiliated with Macomb Ballet Company through which they put on 2 ballets each year including a Nutcracker. These performances are professionally executed and highly entertaining to watch. To top it all off my daughter has made lots of great friends at Ann Parsley/MBC! Katie K.

It is a school dedicated to providing quality dance instruction in a non-competitive environment. The studio faculty are all adult, highly qualified and professionally trained teachers. We believe that building a strong foundation is key. Our goal is to give students individualized training through the focus of technique and discipline. Ann Parsley School of Dance offers a family oriented atmosphere where movement, music and costumes are tastefully chosen and always age-appropriate. High technical standards are maintained and a joy of movement and sense of artistry are instilled through encouragement and positive reinforcement.

    Fantastic instruction, particularly from Ms. Pat (the owner) and her seasoned highschool-aged…read moreassistants. Absolutely zero complaints regarding the value of lessons here. My issue, however, is with the abhorrent waiting area & lobby. With as many families and children who enter and exit the building, there is zero excuse not to have built a larger more accommodating front lobby. Kids and teens kick off their shoes and leave them EVERYWHERE while the lack of seating forces some parents to wait in the car (keep in mind, there is only curbside parking unless you leave your vehicle across the road in a CVS lot). I wish they could knock out a wall, reduce the size of the main studio or figure something out. Again, not much thought was put in to this aspect of the facility. While I stress that the actual instruction is outstanding, there is very little organization when it comes to ushering students aged 3-6 in & out of their lesson. This age requires guidance and direction, but in between classes is a free-for-all. Instructors should retrieve, line up and lead their students into whichever area they're heading to. Given the aforementioned situation with the waiting area, it'd be a huge help in reducing some of that front lobby chaos. Ms. Pat is incredibly knowledgeable, kind hearted and direct with both her staff and the families who attend. It's a great studio, especially for first timer little ones and I recommend DDA to anyone seeking options for dance. Just be aware of the surrounding factors listed above and you won't be as surprised/frustrated as I've seen some parents be.

    Having eleven years of experience at other schools, Trenton shocked me. Gone was the favoritism,…read morethe in-fighting and pitting the dancers against each other. Gone was the oh-so obvious out to just make money while pretending to care about the dancer's. At Trenton, they do not make girls dance late Friday and early Saturday morning. They do not dissuade dancers from homework or school events with subtle comments or rolling of eyes, suggesting that if they have any kind of life they are not truly committed. Unlike other schools, they are respectful of the dancer's time and the dancer's families time - meaning they do not run 15 or 20 minutes over on classes like other schools do. And one of the BIGGEST things? When they say they have their dancer's safety in mind, they mean it. Before joining, they were the only school we could find that followed the masking mandates that Michigan schools followed during the last surge. We were so excited to find a private dance studio that followed science/medicine. I could go on, but I'll leave you with this - we are not currently attending the studio. We had to leave for reasons that have nothing to do with the studio. I have no bias in this as we are no longer there (for now at least). Unlike other schools, Trenton Dance did not solicit this review and doesn't even know I left it. Thank you.

    Though seemingly a good dance school, a bad taste was left after the Nutcracker experience. It…read moreseemed to be more of a money-making enterprise than something for the students. Not only are the parents paying their normal tuition, they had to pay part of the costs associated with the production (yes, there was effectively a fee for their child(ren) to be in the play), plus the parents were required to pay to attend the play. They didn't have to attend both performances, but come on, what parent would just drop off their little one and not stay? That seems like a lot of paying on the parts of the parents, don't you think? At $20.00 per person, they weren't exactly cheap tickets. Two stars were chosen because the definition for two was "Could've been better", which is precisely the point. The experience was damaged by what appears to be gratuitous fund-raising.

    I'm really sad to be posting this. We had a very bad experience here. I think they have bad…read morebusiness practices and their classes for children are overfilled and not engaging at all. I have a son who has done aerials for a full year elsewhere. Because of Agora's policy and the way the children's classes are set up, they have the first and second tiers simultaneously. We were told that they would see if he would be advanced enough to place in the second tier within a few weeks. I've never noticed anyone actually take a second to evaluate any of the kids, but I have noticed some of the tinier, stretchier girls have been place with the second group. I get that girls are typically more limber than boys; but he is strong and skilled on the equipment.. Needless to say he's still in the first tier. So every week we go and every week he stands in line for approximately 30-40 minutes just to hang on a piece of silk or a trapeze or a Lyra for 15 seconds. We do this about 7-8 times and the hour is up. $160 for this for 8 weeks? It's disappointing. I guess my hopes were too high. Oh the other thing they get ya with is that in order for your child to be in the performance they have to register for the first course and that ends before the program, so then you must enroll in the next 8 weeks. We will head to Eastern Market to check out the group down there. Pros: clean Offer kids classes Staff is friendly
