This was our first time at the location. I was impressed with the professionalism. I like to describe this place as "gritty" in a good way. The kids, the environment, the teachers...they all have a high level of work ethic and are serious about what they do but have a nice sense of fun balanced in their actions. They aren't afraid to work hard and work together. It was nice seeing the older kids interact and the talent level seems to be awesome! I live in Anthem and it was a very convenient and simple commute.

The teachers and owners are amazingly talented people who put love into everything they do. If you are looking for a "Dance Mom" school where people are yelling or putting the kids down then you'll need to go someplace else.

I'm writing this with a lot of sadness. When my now 6 year old was 3 we started gymnastics classes…read morehere and we loved it. She found some really good friends and learned a lot, but once she turned 5 it felt like there was a huge shift. My daughter got invited to supersparks, sort of like a pre-team class, and had to leave all her friends, which was hard. Right away the coach was not a fan of my kid, she does have adhd, but she was so harsh. She threatened to kick her out. I would watch this coach give all kinds of faces and yell at her. Still she persisted. Once summer came when she was 6 all the kids were talking about going into hot shots, the next level in competition track. My kid came back almost every day excited to move up with her friends. She would say her coach would tell her she'd have to work hard to get to hot shots. It wasn't until my husband confronted the teacher to ask what was happening for her to tell him that all the other girls were invited into hot shots, except for my daughter, because she's "immature", you know.....unlike any other 6 year old. She gave us the option to stay in supersparks but heavily encouraged her to go to level 2 recreational, the classes she doesn't teach. So like a fool I kept her in supersparks and watched my kid not able to be pushed because all the new kids are a year younger. There's obviously a lot of emotion in this, I just could not believe my daughter was basically left behind after being there for so long. How much money did I put into their pockets just to be pretty much abandoned. I went to a recommended gymnastics place from one of her school friends and had them evaluate her, ready for the recommendation for level 2 recreational. Nope, not even close. She's been invited for a trial on their team. There is a lot of prejudice here, if you are not in with the owner get ready for you and your kid to be lost in the crowd. Heavy heavy cliques with the adults. I just couldn't believe that three years of knowing my kids, coming in multiple times a week, we were just kicked to the curb. We're heartbroken. I do want to say Jodi and Robyn, thank you for loving on my kids. I'm sorry I didn't have it in me to say goodbye the last time. Thank you for encouraging any and all kids who are a little different and show so much potential. Your company has a lot to learn from you.

They crafted a personalized choreography that not only including elegant moves but also ensuring we felt comfortable and confident enough to do them ourselves. my husband and I wanted to avoid the typical bear hug and sway at all costs. We wanted to create a more memorable and exciting first dance not only for us but for our guests as well. Anastasiia and Kirill did just that.

On our wedding day, our first dance was a testament to their expertise, leaving a lasting impression on our guests. Additionally, the skills we acquired enhanced other moments, such as the dip during our ceremony, making them truly special.​ Choosing Fred Astaire Dance Studios was one of the best decisions we made. The experience not only elevated our wedding but also introduced us to a shared activity we continue to enjoy. We wholeheartedly encourage other couples to take lessons before your wedding.

She loves dance, and even wants to put a ballet bar in her room which I thought was so cute. This studio is a great tucked away gem. It's good pricing, monthly fee, no contract. The 3-5 age group does the ballet/tap combo, my daughters favorite being ballet. I don't do the summer classes since they can be crowded but the normal class times are much quieter and relaxed environment. I always shop for my dance items next door to support this small business as well. I've always been treated nice and with a smile, my daughter Kai loves her dance teachers and can't even leave without extra hugs. Next year I plan to have her go twice a week to develop her skill more so I'm going to look into that further. Thank you for three great years so far! We travel about 25 minutes to get here, when we would be going to closer studios.

So far, we've been very happy with Prima Dance! The owner even personally called me after my daughter's first day to recommend a different class setting that better suited her age group. I thought that was such a personal touch and deeply appreciated it. The studio itself is in a quiet location with plenty of parking, which makes coming and going easy. The only adjustment for us has been not being able to watch through windows during class, but overall I'm really excited to continue with Prima and get more involved in my daughter's dance journey.
