They push the girls to be their best. This studio has taught my daughter many important life lessons. Everyone at this studio is very kind and helpful. Especially the seniors, they are very helpful and responsible. They are wonderful leaders and are always helping younger girls with anything from makeup to figuring out their competition schedule. If you want a studio who cares about your kids and their well-being, go to KMoniques!

Dear Encore Dance Academy Studio, When my first dance…read morerecital day came, I was so nervous to going onto the stage and messing up the dance, but after talking to my dance teacher and one of my dancer friends, I felt a whole lot better! I will be returning back to this dance studio and continue with my dancing career. I hope the new dancers are as nice when I was there back in January 2024. I do want to thank my parents for signing me up for hip-hop dance classes because I just love to dance. So if you are looking for a nearby dance studio, I would 100% recommend Encore Dance Academy! Miss Emily is amazing and she really helped me become a better dancer. Ever since I joined Miss Em's hip-hop dance class, I have improved my dance moves so much!! Sincerely, ELLIE PALMER.

The only possible complaint I could have is the small floor size (and for most dance studios, it's…read moremore than adequate-I'm just spoiled!) The instructors are friendly and knowledgeable, and the students are welcoming to newcomers-no cattiness or backbiting here. Child-friendly, including instructors willing to teach young children. Lots of options for group classes, including fitness and adult ballet. The two annual showcases are a ton of fun and Starlite Ball is held at the Century Center--feels like dancing on a huge stage. For competitors, not only are the regular teachers fantastic, the visiting coaches, including Ray Rivers and Elena Grineko, are way above the quality one might expect in the suburban Midwest. The parties are great, with plenty of good music, and there's even a "newcomer" party for students not quite ready to jump into dancing with strangers. If you're looking for ballroom/Latin dance instruction in the South Bend area, give Dancesport a call!

Do not take your child here to dance. My 2 year old cried every week and I now learned why.

Dance is supposed to be fun and as parents it's our job to determine if it's something for kids or not. Definitely do KMoniques or another dance school over this place even if it is a drive. I would rate a 0 if I could.

She has a great music selection, affordable classes, and relatively modest costumes. I appreciate her as a teacher and for the way she encourages children as well as helping realize they are capable of far more than they imagined. Great place for your student to learn dance!

Barb is "old…read moreschool" in that she teaches not only the proper techniques, but expects her students to be responsible and accountable. In other words, you might hear her raise her voice sometimes because she expects them to make it the very best that they can - no sugarcoating. In the end, the results are fantastic at the review, and the kids have a great time presenting a real professional grade show for the public. Several of her students have gone on to dance at the college and professional level over the years, you know that she's doing it right.
