My daughter loves coming to dance each week! All the girls love hanging out and learning new dances! They have such a blast! Love the staff and studio! I recommend taking your son or daughter there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sarah said it best. Horrible studio. Would not reccomend spending money here for a child who actually has skill and wants to dance. Stay away from here!

Overall, I give this studio good marks. The staff seem to enjoy working with the kids and also interact well with the parents. I like the level of organization. Our last studio never seemed to stay on top of things so this is refreshing. I am a father to a young dancer so maybe I bring a different perspective on things (or I don't know any better). I have noticed that at most every studio we have been to there are always a few "dance moms" who seem more into dance than their kids. Sitting in the waiting areas I sometimes look around expecting to see a film crew taping a new segment for a reality TV series based on "Dance Divas". Way too serious. I look at this way, most kids will never make it to the NBA, NFL or MLB. Chances are my daughter will never be a professional dancer. In the meantime she may as well enjoy herself and the kids she spends time in class with. If she can learn self confidence, poise, grace and self discipline than I'm a happy father.

Congratulations Sarah for telling it exactly how it is! Way to be brave and let everyone know how it REALLY is in that horrendous studio.

The person in charge of almost everything- Tammy Singh- Is abslutley dreadful. She nickels and dimes you with everything, even taping your own childrens performace is prohibited so your money will go into her pocket. She is mean to many of the parents and my daughter has expressed some very unpleasent things about her. The other teachers are often late and some are not very experianced with working with children. You overpay for your son or daughter to become a crappy dancer. Beware.
