She doesn't need one. And it was 8 weeks. And inexpensive. Cool, sign me up. The teacher was SOOOO patient. Kids would wander and she'd bring them back in line. For the most part, they sorta followed along. For 3, that is AMAZING. We did the ballet/tumbling combo, after the summer (we are taking off) she can do TAP!!!! We will be back! xo

The Juliart instructors are incredibly talented, knowledgeable, and committed to the dancer's development, pushing them to reach their full potential while in a supportive and fun environment. Super cute programs for little ones and then as they get older there is an opportunity to audition to be on a competitive team. The choreography is fresh, innovative, and challenging, ensuring that they are always learning and evolving as dancers. The dancers also learn about teamwork, time management, public performance and discipline. These skills show both in and out of the studio.

Juliart is a mediocre dance studio, but they lack any rigorous tap program. Like Gotta Dance (a…read morelocal competitor), they are more focused on entering their dancers in competitions than on teaching them to enjoy dance or improving their technique in any significant way. For instance, they offer beginning and intermediate classes, but they have no option to take advanced classes without participating on a competition team. (And training for competitions often does not translate to teaching best practices in technique.) Furthermore, since tap is not found in most competitions, they honestly do not have any tap classes that are challenging for kids ages 8 and above. We will be switching to another studio on Cole Street in Birmingham that focuses more on proper dancing and less on competitions.

Be aware: Google reviews were bought. Customers were given account credits to write a positive…read moreGoogle review. Make of that what you will. The competition program at this studio is a complete joke. Favoritism is insane. Certain competition dancers are given special treatment (7+ extra routines, solos, all the attention in class), while other competition dancers are straight up ignored and denied routines that they are completely qualified for. It doesn't matter how good you are, if the owner doesn't like your dancer, you get the crap routines (Pom pom). The owner will completely ignore your emails and questions and, if she even bothers to respond at all, it'll be whatever bullcrap she wants to tell you. Also, the owners are NEVER at this location. They are always at their other location, the main studio in Sterling Heights. As such, the teachers run the place and do what they want. The woman who teaches the competition jazz and lyrical classes is a complete egotistical asshole. I wouldn't talk to a dog the way she talks to these kids. She will dumb dances down if there's a combination that her favorite dancers cannot do; it doesn't matter that others can do the combo, it'll get taken out if her lil favorites can't do it. Don't waste your time or money here.
