Every teacher we have had for four years you can tell has been hand chosen by the owner, the teachers are the cream of the crop. They have the students work hard, learn important life lessons (working as a team, being respectful, self confidence, taking criticism well), pay very close attention to technique, and are extremely creative. The most beautiful thing about this studio is watching how the students who go there blossom. It is amazing to watch the kids from the preschool ages into the teenage ages. Where they become such talented dancers, but young adults that are wonderful role models (in their manner, dance, behavior, etc.) to the younger ones. The recital has always been a magical time for our family. It is very organized, children are kept safe, it is done in a professional venue, and my kids ADORE being a part of it. Know that you have to be organized yourself as a parent for your child do have just as a magical time as mine do. We love UDA!! You will make such a wonderful decision by having your child become a part of this UDA family.

I don't normally write reviews but felt that this one was warranted. I hate to write anything ill…read moreof others but I don't have really anything great to say about this studio.. which is AKA Studio 22. Our experience dancing here has been one full of high drama and unprofessionalism. As one of the teachers left the studio (which obviously happens now and then) the owner, MaryAnn, was super unprofessional in her manner of filling the teachers spot. There were distasteful emails sent out creating drama and negativity. So much so that my 13 year old refused to go back. She picked up on the vibe. Upon our decision to leave (and many others did too for the same resason) Maryann, again unprofessionally, sent emails and letters billing us for a $100 cancellation fee. I attempted to contact Maryann about the fee because I felt that I shouldn't have to pay it because it was her being difficult, unprofessional (fighting with a mother in the hallway), and negative that caused us to want to leave. She refused to accept my phone calls and wouldn't discuss the matter. Wouldn't even afford me the decency of a phone call before she sent the matter to collections within a 6 week period. I am not writing this because of the fee only. I did pay it because I signed my name to a contract and I upheld my side of the contract. Maryann, however, did not. She agreed to create an atmosphere where the girls could develop and enjoy dance. I didn't speak of any of the "drama" in front of my daughter. In fact, I didn't want to leave the studio because I had already paid for costumes. But my daughter didn't want to dance there and I didn't feel good about sending her to a place for 10 hours a week that left her feeling of the negativity. The teachers here were great- my daughter didn't complain of that. It was simply the owner.

Did not care for this studio at all.

The recitals are in the middle of the week, at 5pm, and working parents are supposed to have their dancer to the venue dressed with hair and make up done before then. Ridiculous. Also, two recitals with different dances and same costume was really lame. Especially when one of the groups 'costume' consisted of a too large tshirt, shorts, and men's tube socks. Oh, and they had to pay for that just like any others. The recital itself was PATHETIC! There was absolutely NO respect for the dancers onstage by the audience, people coming and going, cameras, screaming babies, teens cheering their friends on, and way too many dances that were just too similar. Especially with the amount of open air splits and 'crotch shots' as I overheard someone call them, was just kinda gross to watch after awhile. Picture day was a chaotic joke. Unorganized, way too hot, way to many dancers at the same time trying to get them done. What was supposed to take 15-30 mins took hours. Will not recommend this studio to anyone!

Too often, especially in Utah, you get college students (or even - gasp - high school students!!) teaching at studios who may be good themselves, but it's SO different being good at dance and being a good teacher. Not too expensive for dance classes but a bit pricey for their year end concert. However, it's a WONDERFUL production. Instead of the typical one random dance after another random dance, they put on a story that is so charming. WAY better than 90% of the dance studio concerts out there.

When my granddaughter started with Empower over 7 years ago, there was more of an empowering…read morefeeling in the studio. The dancers showed more support for their other teams. They stayed for awards and cheered for each of the teams that won! The last few years (not counting 2020) as soon as teams finish their routines they all leave. Very few people stay for awards. The atmosphere has changed and they build up the girls by telling them they deserve to be on a higher level team over and over again only to let them down when teams are decided. They make promises that the dancers will be moved to higher teams, even in text messages to the parents and then nothing comes of it. They no longer help to build the girls self esteem but continue to tear them down with broken promises and empty words. Some consider this a type of bullying which you need to think about if you're considering Empower as a studio you want your child learning at. They seem to spend most of their time developing higher-level teams and it appears that these teams attend a lot more competitions than other team levels. Every year at parents meetings they ask for parents to list what they want for their dancer and what competitions they want to attend. It doesn't matter what you put down because they don't even read it. When parents ask what else they can do to help their dancer improve they never seem to have a recommendation to help them grow. The name should be changed from Empower because they are far from empowering unless you are one of Misty's favorites or she's on friendly terms with the dance mom of the individual dancer. If your dancer is shorter than other girls in her age group instead of creating choreography that works with everyone's height they tell you you're too short and move you with other girls younger than you. Wonder how soon it will be before they say someone is too fat or too skinny or to ugly? Not a good atmosphere for young girls uncomfortable with themselves already.
