We were so delighted to find Tutu School Strongsville! From the moment we walked in, the studio felt warm, organized, and genuinely welcoming. The staff greets families with kindness and familiarity, creating an environment where children feel comfortable and excited to participate. One of the things my son enjoys most is how personable and engaging the instructors are. They take the time to truly connect with each child-- learning their personalities and making them feel seen and supported. That personal attention has made a noticeable difference--he looks forward to class and leaves feeling proud of himself every time! The owners, Katie and Grant, are also wonderful. Their experience and passion in professional ballet and teaching dance is evident in everything they do. Their enthusiasm, expertise, and genuine care for the families they serve create a strong foundation for the entire studio. The instructors balance structure with imagination beautifully. They introduce real ballet fundamentals while keeping the experience playful and age‑appropriate. Their patience, professionalism, and warmth truly make each class feel special. The studio itself is clean, safe, and thoughtfully maintained, and communication from the Strongsville team is always clear and timely. Watching our son grow more confident each week has been incredibly rewarding. Tutu School Strongsville has provided exactly the enriching experience we were hoping to find, and we're grateful for the care, intention, and joy the entire team brings to every class.

I love when they balance the bean bags on their heads. They allow you to schedule a make up class if needed. They offer themed classes once a month and also plan fun evening kids night out events as well. Great ballet dance classes for the kids!

    I've been involved and supportive of this studio for many many years. I can honestly say All About…read moreDance by Kristen is a premier studio for children and adults of all ages and ability to literally strut their stuff. The emphasis is on each student being the very best they can be! That attitude toward the students translates into confidence, self awareness, artistic expression and excellence in the art of dance. In business for over 30yrs, thousands have passed through the AADBK doors and now enjoy successful careers and life skills due in part to the lessons learns at AADBK. I highly recommend anyone contemplating joining a dance studio give AADBK a long look. Friendly helpful staff, outstanding teachers and a state of the art facility are well worth the price of admission! Do yourself a favor and stop by AADBK today!

    I danced at AADBK for 13 years, throughout which I was enrolled in tap, jazz, hip hop, ballet, and…read moreacro. This is not a welcoming environment at all. The favoritism is flagrant and pervasive; if you are not in competition or the child of a staff member, you will be blatantly ignored. Additionally, the atmosphere was openly hostile. I was bullied by both adults and other children there because I was not as proficient as the competition girls. The instructors were openly cruel to both me and others who did not fit their image, and my peers were often worse. I spent over a decade at AADBK, and I left feeling burned out, insecure, and devalued. My love for dance suffered immensely because the environment was toxic, not inspiring. Lori Messner at the front desk is the only one employed there who is worth any of your time. Kristen is a greedy woman who encourages this environment and should not be allowed to work with children. Your money will be better spent literally anywhere else, and you won't spend half as much as this place charges.

    To start off the customer service for this place is iniquitous. They feel that no matter what they…read moreare right and you are wrong. They have charged people random amounts as nothing seems to be in order with this place. There is always some form of drama. They allow their employees to talk to paying customers any kind of way and be disrespectful towards you. I have experienced the owners being disrespectful first hand when all I did was try and have a conversation regarding my child and not the events that happened before hand as I was not there when they occurred. Other parents that know intimately about certain situations even feel that the business is run shadily. The owners along with staff are facinorous and all should take a course on customer service. There is no wonder student turnover is so high with this place. After a season of being disrespected most parents opt to take their children elsewhere (as we have) where you'll be respected and valued. I asked about a refund regarding a payment that was made and was told to read the contract. I asked if I could receive a copy of the said contract and was not provided 1. I was not included with the original conversations and when the account was created so I did not have access. This proves that they are greedy thieves as they will threaten to call the police and refuse to act as adults when trying to deal with a situation. Jonathan is very contemptuous and doesn't listen to understand he only hears you speaking waiting to have a rebuttal to the conversation. Him and his wife are not on the same page and are saying 2 different things when speaking with them. They constantly talk over you as you are trying to speak with them. This is no way to have a conversation with some one that is paying you for a a service. His wife has threatened a previous instructor in front of parents and students and the police was involved asking my family questions about the situation so for them to act as if there has not been anything prior and all has been perfect is BS (a FOIA request could be made for the report that was opened). I have asked that they remove any images or likeness of my daughter off of their social media pages with no response but I am sure after this they will have something to say regarding. If she was outed from the school then I don't want her affiliated in any way or for her videos and pictures to be posted with them. I have been nothing but calm and respectful in this whole ordeal even when they were being disrespectful towards me. This is my first and thank god last interaction with this establishment as I could NEVER support a business where I pay good money and they feel they can talk to you and treat you however they see fit. They have threatened legal action for a review being left stating FACTS which the receipts are there for. I'm sure they'll state I was rude and disrespectful BUT I have the entire interaction recorded to have proof as well as having a witness on the phone with me while I had the conversation. Since Ohio is a single party state this is something that is not illegal and I can post if they say anything other than the truth. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! PS- If you want to take legal action against me for speaking up and for this review then do as you see fit. I have the necessary resources and evidence. Threats don't scare me and this is just my experience with you all. Freedom of speech is a great thing as it allows me to say what I want as long as there are no threats made. Since there haven't been any do what you want but I am always prepared! Also make sure you are addressing the correct person please my name is posted above the review.

    They could def. use some people skills when dealing with the kids. Seems there is a "old school"…read moredance mentality in terms of coaching the kids. Things are said to the students that shouldn't be said in 2022. Also, I've seen some erratic behavior from the top of the organization. That being said, yes the kids learn to dance......just not sure I'd want my child in that mix.
