And they do a great production of The Nutcracker every year around Christmas. The studio facility is gorgeous! I've seen a lot of dance studios over the year, but I've never seen a facility that was this nice. And you would never know it just by looking at the building. It kind of looks like a warehouse, but they have beautiful studios inside. The staff is very friendly and the instructors have amazing dance backgrounds. I also love that they offer adult Zumba classes!

They have a variety of choices, but I can only speak to the modern dance class. Both the beginner and advanced dance classes are well taught - starting with warm-up, then some basic across-the-floor steps or technique, and ending with some choreo. The beginner modern class is every Thursday at 7:30PM and advanced is every Thursday at 7:00PM, located in 2 separate studios. It is a little bit difficult to find, but it is located in the back of a huge bldg complex, with plenty of parking available in the lot. The beginner class is perfect for those who either have not danced before or have some modern dance experience from the past, but have not danced for a while. The advanced class is for those who have some dance experience. The teachers are wonderful and really tailor the lessons to each individual. My only gripe is the cost of the classes. $17/class if you want to take one 1.5 hour class. Or you can get the 5 class card or the 10 class card option, which is cheaper (these cards have time limits though). I had bought the 5 class card once, and am taking a break as it is too expensive to maintain.

I love the way she formats the classes for the littlest dancers; besides a basic warmup, she incorporates a story into the class, which the Children get to act out in costumes EVERY WEEK! It is such an excellent way to expose children to dance, as dance is storytelling at its core. We love Miss Amy AND we LOVE BSD!!!!

Questioning her is deemed as harassment or bullying. Her fees are mentioned days before due as are her events... ie picture day. With no consideration for parents work schedules or finances. Extremely unprofessional... discussioning other parents affairs no matter the relationship is a no no. Mentioning you're behind on your rent to parents is a red flag. I've almost sent several people to her... grateful I didn't. Great for kids a nightmare for parents.
