I wonder if she is just naturally like this or if I should attribute this to All that Jazz- either way, I think it's great and they've been able to support her confidence in herself. Miss Deb is wonderful and enthusiastic- upon our first conversation with her, she was so helpful in making a class recommendation based on age and her ability. I love that she's also passionate about supporting their learning, development, and building that confidence not just for the stage but in LIFE. The instructors are also wonderful. Miss Ellen and the assistants are just great with the little kids and really ensure a positive experience in the studio. Can't say enough great things, and are happy to have made this decision to participate.

The depth of their knowledge is amazing. Their teaching ability is exceptional. Their kindness is infinite as well as their dedication to their students.

The studio is beautiful with many windows allowing for plenty of natural light. The dance floor is huge and of a perfect quality.

They not only love to dance, but love to teach others to dance and it shows. They make learning fun. The studio itself has a huge gorgeous dance floor with floor to ceiling windows, so it never feels overcrowded. It inspires you to really move and make the most of all that space. Whether you are a novice or are interested in competing, you will be glad you came here.

A renovated church tucked into a sleepy street in the South End, this cultural center/performance…read morespace has retained some serious spirit, and has hosted a myriad of cool, underground community events. Because of the sheer openness and shape of the space are acoustics are solid. The pulpit was converted into a sizeable stage with a broad audience area where the pews once were. There's also excellent views from the expansive two tiered balcony. When I first visited for Soul Revival in 2001 (a now defunct deep house party) the ceiling was painted midnight blue with stars, and people came together once a month to relive the reverence of its foundation through movement and sound.

Switched my daughter to this studio after having a horrible experience at another local studio…read more This is where I went as a kid. My daughter has my old coach which is so amazing to see. At the other studio my daughter was very unhappy and I was not pleased with the way the owner treated me after they made a mistake they were not willing to fix.

At her old studio she went 4 hours a week $200 month and they didnt even have her started on back handsprings. 2 months into interstate with Kevin 1 hour a week ($90 month) and she got her back handspring with no spotter on a thick mat! I am so pleased!!! So happy with interstate and I am so glad I made the switch to them, wish I had done it sooner!

There's absolutely NO ventilation what so ever. Here's the kicker... you pay by the month. When they decide to take a vacation... you still pay. They take two weeks off for Christmas break. Generally your child goes once per week. They take Christmas week and the following week off. You only get two classes for the same full monthly price. They will not allow you to take two classes per week to make up for it or give you a half price discount. Unfortunately we are stuck there till the end of the season. I won't be bringing her back there. There's plenty other facilities that are cheaper or comparable in price..., have ac/ ventilation, don't smell like a sweat box and don't play the "I still get paid for vacation" game.

Be warned!!!!!! Egocentric man!!! Very unprofessional Piano Teacher. Although he is very skilled,…read morehe has a difficult time with boundaries and professionalism. We began seeing him in February and had to end our services 3 months later due to many issues handled inadequately. I had no intention on sharing my experience through a review until he completely ignored me over email. Since beginning services with him in February, he had made several passive aggressive statements but we looked the other way for our daughter who thoroughly enjoys piano. He made comments about us not ordering a new keyboard saying things like, "I don't know if it's a money thing...", and "I've mentioned this before, and for whatever reason you haven't ordered another keyboard...", which is completely INAPPROPRIATE! Maybe we hadn't ordered it because we wanted her to earn it, or maybe we hadn't ordered it because we wanted it to be a reward at the end of the school year? Regardless, it was none of his business why. She had a working keyboard and that's all that should have concerned him. And then most recently, over Skype in May he said, "I don't know how much you care about her piano lessons but she's quite good." And what I said back to him was, "We care about whatever she cares about." It's clear he is not a parent. No person who is a parent would presume parents don't care about piano lessons they are paying for so their child can learn and enjoy piano, and no parent would involve children in monetary matters the way he did either. After my daughter's final piano class with him, she informed me that at the end of their meeting he said to her, "Please remind your mother to pay for the month of June as she is always late with the payment." What kind of teacher says a comment like this to an 11-year-old? What kind of teacher makes such a passive aggressive comment to a child about money? Why not give the parent a call or send the parents an email if there is any concern with payment. Moreover, there was no "always"; he had only been paid for February and March and then the pandemic happened. His form of payment is very archaic and he only accepts written checks either brought to him at class or mailed to him. So as any normal human being would know the month of April in Massachusetts was quite stressful due to COVID-19. Going out to get groceries was scary in and of itself and remembering to mail his check was not on my top priority list. So that payment was a late which I apologized for, even give the circumstances. Then I was sick at the beginning of May and my daughter unfortunately missed a class to which he had a very flippant attitude about even though I was in the hospital. I made a payment arrangement with him and told him I would send him a check for the month of May. He finally agreed to accepting Zell in the month of May. So for him to make a comment like that to my daughter on June 2 was completely inappropriate and uncalled for. When I brought this to his attention he did not respond back with apologies or understanding, he simply responded back with excuses and tried to shame me saying that he was "sorry if it embarrassed you". If he were a parent then he'd understand that it wasn't embarrassing, it simply put my daughter in an awkward and uncomfortable position, therefore inappropriate and unprofessional. I expected an email back and he did not respond. 3 days later I reached out to my daughter's previous teacher who was willing to make time for her on weekends, as she lives far away and weekdays are hard for us. I informed Stephen of this and listed out all the reasons why his employment with us was no longer going to work. He decided that his pride and ego have too much value and he would not respond to that either. Horrible customer service! Not to mention that his flippant attitude towards my daughter, as if having her as a student didn't mean anything was even more insulting. Being a good pianist is one thing, but being a good service provider is a whole other thing for this guy. Don't trust him with your kids.
