My continual disappointment with Shea and the management of Miller Street is beyond measure.

They treat the classes as if the children are on a competitive team, when my seven year olds just love to dance and want to enjoy the process of learning. We were recently kicked out of our class because of a family emergency that made it impossible to attend the recital at the end of the year so now my children who love going can no longer attend classes through the end of the year. The lack of understanding, flexibility and quite frankly care for the CHILDREN is astounding. I have more examples over the years - this is just the most recent.

Their group classes are outstanding. They will get you dancing quickly. The studio is beautiful. It is in an old building with great ambiance. You sometimes feel like you are in a movie scene as you enjoy the old wood floors and the views of downtown Matthews. They have a wide variety of group class levels, so you can dive in and feel comfortable no matter how much experience you have. This has been a great empty-nest hobby for us!

I realize that most people have enough common sense to do their own research and not believe…read morebaseless bad reviews. Nevertheless please be sure to read this one in response to the completely dishonest one posted before it. I have been a CDC VIP parent for 5 years and on staff for 2 years. Not only is this disheartening to read, it's also simply untrue. It's fine for a family to share their experience but it is absolutely unacceptable to lie about it to gain sympathy and fire people up. It's not ok to twist the truth and bash the studio when this family did not properly communicate their need. Each summer before auditions our competition parents have a meeting with the studio owner and director and are given an information packet with all rules and guidelines and a full year calendar from August of that year through August of the following year. We know that we are committing to the team for the full season when we make the decision to allow our students to audition. Before allowing a child to audition, parents are to read through the information, rules, dates etc and then we have to sign that we read it and agree to adhere to the rules. Scheduling updates which include hours needed to rehearse and prepare are given throughout the season with plenty of notice. The rehearsal was absolutely not planned at the last minute. CDC is proud to be family oriented and while commitments are expected, the studio always schedules around commitments if given proper notice. Our director always works with people who have schedule conflicts as long as it's prior to schedules being released. The studio has always worked around everyone's schedule to make sure each family is able to be accommodated. This parent did not contact the studio or the director about this wedding until after the rehearsal schedule was released. When schedules are released they come with a forewarning about rehearsals being mandatory and it is communicated very clearly that no exceptions will be made at that point. Multiple parents contacted the studio well ahead of the same schedule being released and as a result of following the rules, the schedule was adjusted to allow those students to participate in whatever they needed to do. A wedding is not planned in a day. There should have been plenty of time to notify the studio and had the studio been notified before the schedule was released there would have been no problem at all and they wouldn't have had to choose. The parent had a conversation with the director after the schedule was released. During the conversation, they agreed that they failed to contact the studio when they should have and that they would " figure it out." The director made it clear to this parent that the student would have to be in rehearsal to be in the routines at recital and nationals. So whichever rehearsals they were in, they would have been able to participate in those dances at recital and nationals. The student was at rehearsal earlier in the day and then left with their parent without telling anyone they were leaving. The student missed about 3 hours of rehearsal. I know this because my children were at those same rehearsals that this student missed. The student was allowed to participate in our annual recital and our nationals competition for any of the routines that they were at rehearsal for. The parent decided to break the commitment they made and withdraw the student from the program. I must say that I was absolutely shocked, saddened, and genuinely grieved when this parent decided to send some of the most vicious, hateful,and dishonest emails to the studio that I've ever seen in my life and I had always assumed that this parent was one of integrity. The bottom line is that this never had to happen. The parent should have just communicated their conflict to the studio in a timely manner and I can say with all certainty that the schedule would have been adjusted to allow the student to be in the wedding. This student was and still is very much loved and cared for. We would have loved to have them participate in the recital and nationals. It breaks my heart that this family is now bashing our studio when this all could have been prevented with proper communication in advance so that the schedule could have been set up to work around this event. It's really that simple.

We frequent Lifetime gyms whenever we travel as we like the consistent quality and classes provided by the gym. Overall, this is a very nice building and was on the larger side from the facilities that we are used to. They have both Pickleball and basketball courts. They also have the standard high-quality technogym equipment found in all of their locations. The steam and dry sauna area was on the smaller side from what I'm used to seeing, but they were very clean and well-maintained. The Lifetime café was also very clean and had plenty of space to sit down. Overall, wonderful experience and would definitely visit again in the future

Each class is different and I am left sweating and feeling good at the end of each one. It's definitely a great workout. All of the instructors I've tried are great but Kristen is my favorite so far. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and they have a lot of regular members. No egos or competitive spirit here, which I appreciate. There is a large parking lot but it's easy to miss your turn if you're not familiar with the area. There are cubbies to store your stuff and hair ties, Luna bars, and water provided. The intro unlimited membership is $99 per month, which is a great deal and then it goes up to $159 I believe. You also have to let them know in advance if you want to cancel; otherwise, you'll be locked in for another 3 months. Their app is super easy to use, they have clothes and socks for sale, if you need them. My one minor complaint is that there isn't a clock in the room, so I never know if they're done kicking my butt haha.
