Star Maker is such a huge part of my kids’ fun, happy, and exciting little lives that I barely know where to start, but I’m going to do my best. We found Star Maker when it became apparent that my four year old’s singing abilities and her drive to perform needed support from someone who knew more than I did. I tried a few local schools of the arts, but nothing seemed like it was the right fit for her- some were too formal and not fun, and some just didn’t know what to do with someone so young, and none felt like the right place for us. From the moment I met Leesa at Star Maker I felt like we had found our home, and my kids loved going there. What Star Maker offers my kids is unheard of in the area (which is why some of their clients travel so far to attend.) It is a one-stop shop for any family with kids who love the performing arts. The training covers everything-intensive dance, acting, singing, piano, song writing, guitar, etc. The staff and the visiting coaches are the best the City has to offer, including some of the best coaches in the industry, without requiring us to go to the City, which is huge. The students, many of whom are seasoned professionals of the stage and the screen, are the nicest, most supportive group of kids I could ever hope to get my kids to look up to. Their monthly Open Mic is the highlight of my kids’ routine, and when friends attend, they are blown away, not only by the level of talent, but at how confident the kids are to get up and perform. Leesa’s knowledge of the entertainment industry should never be questioned. She has created Star Maker based on her many years of working directly with kids in the industry, and she has guided us, and all of her students, to places we never dreamed of being and things I never thought we’d be doing. I have two kids who are so confident, well spoken, able to get up in front of anyone and be themselves, and so much of that is due to what they have gained at Star Maker. We are so grateful to have Star Maker in our lives!

StarMakers is a High Class place for your child to go for All their Performing needs!! I cant rant & rave enough about the Staff and the Families that participate at this Wonderful Studio!! The Eyes, Ears & Creativity of the Owner Miss Leesa will just blow you away with all the Talented students & instructors that she has Developed into Stars!! She also brings in the Most Talented Choreographers & Instuctors from NY and all over to Teach Dance Classes &Give Private Vocal Lessons/ Coaching on Technique. Whether your child wants to do the competition dance & vocal route, Miss Lessa can take you as far as Your Dream Wants to go & Further. If Your Dreams Wants to be on the Professional Broadway Stage or on Tv,Films &doing Voice Overs then Miss Leesa has made it happen with our children! She has managed her childrens professional careers over the past 25yrs? Shes choreographed work for Madonnas 2012 MDNA World Tour, & halftime routines for the NY Knicks, Nets, and 76ers. One of my Favorites that Leesa Csolak has wrote and choreographed an educational & professional childrens video called "Hip Hop Homeroom" designed to teach children ages 3-8 math skills through HipHop dancing!! I have to say that my daughter started to take Ballet/Tap at the age of 2-3 & when this Video and CD came out, this was our New Best Friend!!! Not only did she learn math ( which is her best subject to this day, 7the Grd & taking Algebra 1) and the video self helped her to learn some dancing moves on her own since she was no longer taking any classes. I would Highly recommend you by Pass All Other Studios & Come talk to Miss Megan the Office Mngr or Miss Leesa and see what Our Family Here@ StarMakers can offer You!!! ☆☆☆ Thanks for Listening & I hope you take my advise!! :-) ☆

My daughters experience these past years at the Starmaker School has been really positive. There are many studios in the area with great dance and performance programs, but Starmaker stands out because of the level of talent that they bring in from NYC and elsewhere to teach and direct. This gives kids a much more creative and rewarding experience. Last year, my daughter studied with a Tony nominated choreographer who was a real inspiration to her. This years choreographers and teachers are equally amazing. Every dance class is run professionally. Voice coaches and acting coaches as well--the best of the best. It is a whole different level and we are fortunate to have this type of studio in Hunterdon County! I also admire the studio owners professionalism and dedication. The owner knows all the kids and provides EACH one with EQUAL opportunities for volunteer work, performances, and parts, making the studio more inclusive than others. Professional all around. Regardless of where they go with their careers, or to college, or even just for fun they are getting a real experience at Starmaker. And, if they should decide to move on professionally this is really the only place around that can prepare them.

Whether youre serious about getting your child into show business or just getting their feet wet with a few dance classes, Starmaker cant be beat. They have amazing teachers - true professionals - in dance, voice and acting. The schools director is immensely dedicated to her students and her profession. For those serious about pursuing a career, she will be your guardian angel and mentor. Acting classes are real-world and practical. Couldnt be happier about getting our daughter involved in Starmaker. She takes Voice, Acting, Tap and Hip Hop; she loves her teachers, the students, the school as a whole. Highly recommend!

We are so fortunate to be a part of The Star Maker School family! The top-notch teachers and staff at this performing arts school nurture each individual child while highlighting his or her unique talents. My daughter loves to dance, act, and sing and has learned a plethora of skills while building incredible confidence and self esteem. She always looks forward to every fun filled day at The Star Maker School and never wants to leave!

Star Maker brings top NYC dance and voice teachers here to Clinton so you get professional instruction without having to commute to the city. Leesa Csolak, the owner, is a real treasure because she not only knows how to properly train performers, she also has experience in show biz and has guided and assisted many of her students in becoming signed, paid, working performers.

My daughter has had a privilege of working with the Star Maker School for approximately 3 yrs. During this time the staff and management have demonstrated an outstanding knowledge of the Arts and their enduring support has been a true blessing.
