My kids grew up doing this excellent program and all three were complimented by college professors…read moreon their public speaking skills and confidence. Honestly, didn't expect that to be an outcome of what I thought was my kids just having a ton of fun at theater classes, summer camps and doing musicals throughout the year! Truly time and money well-spent, and they built a whole lot of core memories with CYT Chicago!

If I personally could give the childcare facility 0 stars, I would. When you send your child to…read moredaycare, you are trusting strangers to care for your child, but have great hope that the child care facility has done an in-depth review of the teachers they hire to care for your little ones. On 3/15/23 Ms. Janet (one of the teachers currently employed at Kiddie Academy) decided to twist my son's ear, because he and several of the other children were running around during nap time. However, I did not become aware that something had transpired until Thursday morning, when my son became distraught, crying and falling out because he did not want to go in the class with the teacher. Not understanding the full extent of what happened and believing what Ms. Luisa (the Director) shared about the kids running around during nap time and a teacher yelling into the classroom on 3/15/23, he attended daycare on 3/16/23. When he got home on 3/16/23 he had bruises on his left leg that resembled a hand print. Upon seeing the bruises, my son's father and I met with the Director to share our concerns. At no time were we offered the ability to view the video of the classroom on 3/15/23 to fully understand what transpired, nor were we able to see what happened on 3/16/23 that caused the bruises on my son's legs. To-date the only option offered was an apology and forgoing paying the 4 week cancellation fee. Ms. Janet is still employed at the facility and no additional action had been taken. As I am still exploring my personal options on how I'd liked to proceed in this particular situation, I thought it best at a minimum to post a review to hopefully help another parent avoid a similar situation.

I remember all my sibling's and I would come home with fun arts and crafts! They gave us an opportunity to grow. My cousin now comes here he always shares the fun things he did and whenever I pick him up he has the biggest smile on his face they make everyone feel special and proud of who they are they gave me the best experience I could ever ask for!

We're new to CL and my daughters wanted to take dance lessons. Being a new dance mom (so exciting,…read moreright?) I didn't know what to expect. We signed up for Hip Hop and ballet at All That Dance and had a terrible experience since day 1. My daughter would leave class each day, crying. She said the girls were being mean to her and the teacher would do nothing about it. Fine. I get it, that's not 100% the teacher's job, so I made my daughter suck it up and continue on. But then the owner, Ellen, is very disorganized. Limited mode of communication on big events, important dates, and will call you out in front of God and everyone if you are behind in a payment. We were behind on $48 because we didn't realize the month was prorated and she shared it out in front of all of the parents and kids. That is not professional. You pull the parent to the side and tell them OR send a statement (printed) in the mail or physically hand it to them. Not all parents are stuck to their email. If you are like me, Gmail shows 1,000 missed messages. ....and don't get me started on the disorganization of the dance photos - missing accessories, and hair accessories that did not compliment my daughter's ethnic hairstyle. I also feel like what my daughter learned was subpar...but it could be the first time dance mom in me...I don't have much expectations. This company may be best for some, but not for us due to our experience.

We have been attending All That Dance for the last 10 years. This place has been a home away from…read morehome for my daughter, a place where she can truly be herself and shine. The owner, Eileen, knows every student's name and treats them with kindness and respect. As a parent, I am consistently included and asked for my input. One of our favorite parts of this studio is that there are many different kinds of dance classes to explore. As my daughter progressed, she got trained in ballet, jazz, contemporary, lyrical, and hip-hop. Now as a high schooler who loves being involved in the plays and musicals, she is highly equipped to handle any form of dance they throw at her. In fact, as a freshmen, she was cast in all the productions at her high school which is rare. I credit the training in dance and poise she received from All That Dance. Overall, we couldn't be happier with our experience there. If you want dance instruction in a low pressure, fun environment, you have found your place!
