Review №1

My daughter danced at step to this for 14 years on the competition team. She loved dancing here and continues to have a great relationship with the owners And her dance mates . It was such a wonderful experience she has made life long friends. Over they years they have won many top overall awards, too numerous to count. The teaching is excellent! Very professional and caring teachers. I couldn’t say enough about how great this studio is! Several of the alumni students have gone on to have professional dance carriers or have become dance instructors.

I was a part of this studio since I was 3 years old; whether it was as a dancer or as someone who simply watched and supported them. That being said I want to share my years of experience and observations. If you’re between the ages of 2-9, I would recommend this studio to help learn the beginning techniques of dance, but after that I would suggest leaving because you’re not going to learn anything more than the basics. Being someone who danced here when I was 3, took a break for several years and started dancing here again at 13; I relearned the basics, participated in the recital and decided I wanted to join the competition team the next year. I joined the team for one year where I experienced very little personal growth, after that season I wasn’t able to compete for personal reasons. I continued to take competition level classes because I wanted to try again the next season. Several average level teachers started working there and continued to teach the same stuff every class. This eventually caused me to stop enjoying dance. My experience as an observer/supporter leaves me very disappointed; the owner is constantly rude to her students, personally attacking them and even putting them down when giving corrections and allows the teachers to do so as well. This is a very unprofessional environment with constant drama that everyone on the competition team seems to get involved with because the owner shares everyones business. The owner constantly talks about people behind their back, never confronting them personally. Something I, as a kid, experienced myself. This encouraged others (kids and adults who knew your business) to treat you poorly as well. Overall this studio is good for beginners and recreational students to learn the basics. For the most part, the competition program is average (with some exceptions) and the studio, which likes to talk about being family friendly, has become anything but.

I am currently one of the ballet instructors at Step 2 This and all my children have been apart of this studio. We are a family and strive to give our students the best training.
