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.

She also started a tap ballet combo class this year, and has enjoyed it as much as she has enjoyed school. I was a bit disappointed to hear the preschool only does a Christmas program every other year. The year they don't do one, there is a program in the spring. But other than that, we have had a wonderful experience with the school.

It's been a few years since we've taken swim lessons here, and we liked them (at least the indoor…read moreones) which is why we came back.

I am a huge fan and I've only been once so far with my three-year-old daughter. But compared to…read moreanother dance school we've experienced, it was like night and day. The three-year-old class had ballet bars set up in the center of the room at the perfect height for those little girls. The class size was small (about 7) with two teachers. Each girl received individual attention while the instructors worked on their steps. Parents remained outside the room with only a small, one-way mirror to observe the class. Even during shoe changes, we weren't allowed in. I was way okay with that! The instructors made sure the girls had their tap shoes on and tied before starting the second half of class. Along with cute foam circles to make sure each girl had her own spot along the bar or along the side of the room and personal instruction, there was a time for some free dance with the lights dimmed and small sparkly tree branches to hold and twirl. It was awesome! You can tell Jennifer Hansen is serious about her academy and her dancers. We are loving it!

So much so, that last year I knew I had to try to be a part of the fabulous faculty! Ms. Jennifer was gracious enough to accept me as a small part of the staff, and the students here have been absolutely amazing. They've been taught so well in how to be respectful, have a kind and encouraging treatment toward each other, and progression in their development that is stunning! Observing how the studio runs from enrollment and class evaluations to the recital and opportunities for dancers for the last year and a half has been a TREAT. Each faculty member truly LOVES what they do and LOVES these kids. There is loving professionalism that permeates each classroom. Truly, this is a studio fit for any parent who wishes their child to get the best experience! I can't WAIT for my 2-year old to get a titch older so she can begin her journey with PDA! Get your child/children in ASAP!

I was told they didn't offer that until age 8, only to find out when we were there that they DO have a hip hop class for that age group, but it's for boys only. When I walked in, the owner was not very friendly. The entire establishment was completely unorganized. I called the owner shortly after leaving asking about the hip hop class, not understanding why the boys can do ballet, tap and jazz, but why my daughter couldn't join the hip hop class. I understand it is her establishment and she can do what she pleases with it. But I, personally found it very sexist. She was rude, unprofessional and dismissive. Needless to say my daughter will not be attending the dance classes.
