this studio is a mess. the past few years, tons and tons of families have left the competition team…read moredue to the declining quality of this studio. the owner has continued to bring her alcohol problems into rehearsals and competitions, which is completely unprofessional and extremely unsafe for the kids she is teaching, especially if she is the only adult there. parents had to take turns staying in the studio lobby just to supervise because they were not comfortable with their kids being taught by someone under the influence. the ballet teacher plays favorites, gossips, and mentally abuses kids here. every time a family plans to leave this studio, she interrogates the child and immediately tells the director without letting the family tell her themselves. they then treat the kids terribly for the rest of the season due to this. the quality of the competition team has been dropping rapidly, due to the large amount of people quitting and some of the best teachers at the studio leaving or getting fired. all the owner cares about is getting money, she does not care about the quality of training here at all, and it has become more and more apparent over the years. do not come to this studio if you are serious about dance, you will not have a good experience with the competition team or get good training. do not come to this studio if you don't want to endure emotional abuse, gossip, and the obvious playing of favorites, because you will experience it. run from this studio, it is a hot mess.

We love it here!…read more Both of my daughters are enrolled in musical theater here. When I reached out the staff was super responsive (shoutout to Lauren). She helped me find the right class for them. We enrolled, my girls enjoyed it and even got this super cute welcome box. It made my girls day. There are so many classes. I recommend coming for a trial and taking a look at the lists. There's dance, singing, performing arts. The reality is there's something for everyone looking for performance based classes. They are attentive to the kids and so far this has been a fantastic experience. This place is located near Brentwood fine meats. Parking lot out front so easy access. The kids perform in studios and while you can't see inside you can watch them on zoom. I thought that was pretty creative. Highly recommend!

My daughter just started back at ECPAC 6 months ago after leaving for a couple years & going to a…read moredifferent studio. She previously danced here from age 2.5 to 5. We decided to leave at the end of 2021 because the studio was still requiring masks & it was my personal choice to no longer mask my children at that point. We also felt like it was impersonal due to so many kids, teachers, & classes. The move was right for us at the time. Fast forward to my daughter being 7.5 & wanting to take more classes & possibly start competing, back to ECPAC we go! They were very receptive to having us back, there was clearly no hard feelings. Lauren at the front desk is always kind & helpful. I feel like I bother her with questions all the time! The email communication is great as well. We're happy with our decision to give ECPAC another try. It seems that they're always striving to improve which I appreciate. It's funny because one of the reasons we left (too many classes) is the main reason we returned!

My son has danced for seven years. A year ago, he was so discouraged at our old studio that he was…read moreready to give up dance. I was absolutely heartbroken to see his pain for something he loved so much. A year later, seeing him now blossoming under Miranda's love and encouragement he now soars and has once again found his love of dance. The confidence knowing she has his back to try even harder then before. Isn't that something we want for our kids? To soar? To have confidence that they can go out on stage and see her looking back saying, "you've got this!" Yes, take a few classes and see what I am talking about!

My daughter started Fall of 2016 she was 3 years. She was practically dancing the day she was born…read more K.I.T.A was the first place we tried out, because the other reviews and times for classes didn't work for me. She loved it and she's been dancing here ever since. She took the creative movement class, then went into the ballet/tap class, then tried the hip hop class and back to ballet/tap. I love Ms.Katie, she really takes the time to show and teach the kids the positions and choreography. When she took the hip hop class she didn't enjoy as much as she did with ballet/tap, and I think it was because of the teacher. The teacher was young and didn't seem to know how to actually teach, she may be be a great dancer but teaching the young kids takes patience and knowledge. The kids seemed to be just playing freeze dance a lot during the last 15minutes than actually learning morning. When Ms. Chelsea went into the class and helped this other student teacher out, the kids seemed like they were actually learning and having fun. I was kind of annoyed for a while about that teacher to be honest, but wanted to give her the benefit of a doubt that she can actually teach. But Ms. Katie and Ms. Chelsea stepped in and helped the students understand the movements and choreography they needed to learn. The only reason I gave them 4stars was because of the hip hop class, but overall, my daughter loves K.I.T.A. My younger daughter wants to join hip hop and ballet/tap too. I just wish they had more classes for the younger ones after work hours so I can actually bring them, but I also understand, you can't please everyone. I would definitely recommend this place to others, my girls love them!

I've been searching for adult…read morebeginner ballet classes in the area, but it was hard to find one truly tailored for adult beginners--where I could learn proper positions and fundamental techniques. I'm so glad I found Hiroko's classes. She genuinely cares about each student's form and takes the time to correct our poses and steps. I really appreciate her patience and understanding. I only wish they can add more Back to Basics class options on weekends or in the evenings so I could attend after work. Thank you, Hiroko, for reigniting my passion for ballet!

I was enrolled in an adult ballet class taught by Hiroko Shabuya. Though she seemed nice, it was a…read morewaste of money. She selected a few of the best ballet dancers in the class to act as lead dancers for a production we were to perform as a class. The rest of us were relegated to be background dancers. This meant most of us waited around for her attention or practiced simple movements, while Hiroko focused on teaching the main dancers their roles. I felt like my money was wasted since her focus was on a few of the best dancers and teaching them their intricate choreography, while the rest of us did not get much individual attention.

What has always stood out most is the incredible compassion and understanding from the owner and staff. During a time when I was navigating custody schedule challenges, they went above and beyond to accommodate us so my daughter could continue doing what she loved. When our family went through the loss of my son, the studio, along with dance parents surrounded us with love and support. They offered comfort and kindness in ways that meant the world to us, even stepping in to help with costumes and details when things felt overwhelming. They truly showed up like family. This studio isn't just about dance; it's about community, heart, and helping kids grow with confidence. We'll always be grateful for the years we spent there and the memories we've made.

I was attempting to enroll my son in one of their classes, and I mentioned that I was having difficulty with the online registration process due to being neurotypical. Unfortunately, instead of receiving the help and support I expected, the lady handling my inquiry completely ignored my messages for an entire week, just two days before the class was scheduled to start. Frustrated by the lack of response, I sent her a fourth message yesterday, informing her that I was no longer interested and that I had filed an ADA complaint regarding their handling of the situation. Surprisingly, she responded immediately after I mentioned the complaint. All of this has left my son feeling very disappointed about not being able to attend the class he was looking forward to. I do not recommend this business.
