    My daughter has been going to ADC for years, we were first at the Homewood location and now at the…read moreOrland location. Everything about the environment and experience at ADC has been amazing! Dance class is the highlight of her week. As a parent I love the focus on movement and skill building rather than always prepping for recitals. For the classes my daughter is in they do a recitals every other year which is perfect because it gives time to work on skills. The older kids are also always so kind and helpful with the younger dancers. We were also at a different studio when our daughter was really young and my wife and I felt the older girls performances and costumes were overly sexualized. The older girls at ADC are outstanding dancers and their performances are always tasteful. We love all the teachers and the delay of community, can't say enough good things about ADC!!

    Absolutely the worst place for dance in the south suburbs. If I could give this place NO STARS, I…read morewould. They are totally insensitive to the cultural differences of their students, lack professionalism when speaking to parents and children and isolate children based on their beliefs. Because I didn't want to put my 5 year old in the street walker makeup that was recommended for recital, I was told that my daughter couldn't participate in the group picture because she would not be "uniform and the other parents would complain." I'm sure that other parents are like me and don't care what other children in the picture look like as long as their kid is cute. We are African American and my daughter's hair is not the slick-back-into-a-ponytail kind of hair. They made a point to say that no one should have braids or beads. No beads, I understand. But let's be reasonable about the hair. The teachers constantly talk to the student, not their parent, about things they should not serving to alienate them from their classmates. While they do this, they hide behind the statement that they are "teaching more than just dance steps." Well, they are right about that. They are teaching them that to take a stand for what they believe in could cause them to be ousted from the group and that what they hold as a personal or religious standard is inferior to the need to have uniformity in a group. If you care at all about your daughter's emotional well-being, do not take them to this dance school.

    My daughters have been dancing at Synergy for 7 years. My girls started as shy dancers to bringing…read moreso much energy, skill, and passion for dancing on the stage. At Synergy, they learn much more than dancing. The amazing director, helpful staff and talented teachers give life lessons that serve them well beyond the dance floor. They learn about making and reaching for goals. They learn about working as a team and caring for others. They gain confidence while being kind. They learn how to be strong while being graceful. When you dance at Synergy, you have so much fun and you become part of a family!

    My wife and I saw a young girl being mistreated by another beautiful young lady on stage this…read moreweekend. We were surprised that no adult came to the stage to defuse the situation and stop the young girl from touching and yelling at this poor girl. The girl was so close to her face, and I found myself upset as if she were my child. The girl got emotional, and we saw her crying at some point during the awards it seemed as if two women came to the little girls rescue and removed her close to the end of the ceremony. My wife and I were really bothered by this and came back the next day and asked around as we wanted to know the correct location Synergy is from because we noticed when we wanted to write about this, there are multiple locations. We also found out that she missed the award for her dance due to the situation. We wanted to look for her to tell her what a wonderful job she did and how she handled the situation gracefully, but we didn't see the young girl the next day. Due to what transpired we decided to write on behalf of those who noticed and on behalf of this poor girl that just broke our hearts. No one should allow a child to behave in that way this showed poor sportsmanship, and how there seems to be tension amongs the dancers as they were not united. I'm very surprised no one stopped it nor a parent came up sooner, if this was my child I would of given the young girl a few words of wisdom about her behavior before removing my child from an uncomfortable situation. Synergy, these kids represent your company, and I hope this is being handled internally and we do not witness another one at future compititions. I'm not giving you a 1 star because I do not know what is being done or what the companies values are (But I'm sure misconduct behavior isn't one of them). I hope the company is taking this kind of behavior serious for the sake of the children and for all parents that would be put in this kind of situation from both sides. I'm sure this is something that is being fixed, and I hope the company is fully aware of what transpired and that those two ladies who removed the child reported the incident so that this doesn't happen to another child. We wish Synergy the best of luck! May the children and parents be united and not divided.

    My two girls have been dancing here since they were two (in Mommy & Me class). I was careful about…read morechoosing a studio, as I come from a performance background and I know how cutthroat the dance world can be. I was looking for a few things in particular and have been extremely pleased with HDA. Specifically, I was looking for: 1) Choreography and costumes that are age-appropriate. I have a huge problem with the sexualization of young children and I'm happy to say that I have never seen a child at HDA in anything that made me uncomfortable. (So, no five-year-olds twerking in bikinis.) 2) Promoting healthy body image. The dance world (ballet in particular) notoriously pushes dancers to be unhealthily thin. I have never heard of a dancer at HDA being told that they needed to look a certain way in order to dance and I've been happy to see dancers of all sizes and shapes in lead roles over the past several years. 3) Camaraderie among dancers. I have no patience for petty, backstabbing meanness. Dance does have a competitive element to it when it comes to coveted roles and I know how ugly behavior can stem from jealousy. I'm not quite sure how she's done it, but Jennifer has managed to create an environment where the students all genuinely cheer for each other, the older students nurture the younger students, and the younger students admire their leaders. 4) Performance opportunities. I think that publicly putting yourself out there -- in any way, on stage or in a business presentation -- is one of the most terrifyingly vulnerable things someone can do, which is why it's a skill that is good to develop at a young age. HDA finds a way to include even their youngest dancers in their productions (e.g., Reindeer in "The Nutcracker," mice in "Cinderella," guppies in "The Little Mermaid," etc.), which is not true of some other studios in the area. 5) Excellent training. Finding a studio that emphasizes good technique is extremely important, as ballet is the foundation for so many other kinds of dance. My oldest daughter (11) started en pointe this year and I will say that the evaluation to see if she was physically ready was excellent. The studio also encouraged us to see a doctor if we were hesitant, who also gave the green light. And quick note: starting en pointe doesn't mean immediately doing pirouettes in the center. The class moves slowly to properly develop the technique. On the other side of this, both of my girls have repeated dance levels in the past because the instructors didn't feel that they were physically ready to move up. I appreciated that they were looking out for their development and, while my daughters were disappointed, it gave them extra incentive to work toward improving in certain areas so that they would be ready to move up the following year. 6) Nurturing teachers. The fastest way to burn out is to hate going to class. That's never been the case for my daughters at HDA. Starting in the Young Children's Program, the classes are so much fun and so joyful. It really did instill a love of dance early on. Moving into the upper level classes, I see the instructors correcting and challenging the dancers, but never with a hardened rigidity that I've observed elsewhere. Each instructor has their own style, but the constant is the care that they show each dancer as a human being -- and how much they love to teach. I found one studio that had everything on my list: Hinsdale Dance Academy. I haven't been disappointed. Dance at HDA has given my girls confidence, a strong work ethic, opportunities for leadership, and a spirit of sisterhood. They have learned to overcome obstacles, to deal with disappointment gracefully, and the exhilaration that comes with obtaining a long-term goal. I highly recommend it.

My daughter comes home from dance and always has a joyful smile on her face. The studio is VERY clean and sanitized. Faculty is great, understanding, and kind. Everyone treats each other with respect and no judgment is made. I have taken my daughter to previous dance studios and she did not love it as much. Hinsdale Dance Academy is amazing. 1000% recommend taking your kid here. Also, I saw a couple of boys taking the class as well and they were treated the same way. Love HDA!

In addition, the studio offers the opportunity to participate in dance competitions (YAGP and UBC, to name a few) to further develop the dancer's stage and performance experience. I cannot rave enough about how phenomenal this ballet school truly is for aspiring dancers! I'm pleased we made the transition and cannot say enough great things about WSBC!
