I have 10+ YEARS Coaching Gymnastics. I recently was employees by this studio BUT before that I had my children here. My son took Danes kung fu which Dane is AMAZING teacher! But my daughter was in tumbling and after two months I was seeing repetitiveness and nothing new being taught. I was offered a job as a fill in during a time where their coaches had other obligations. As an employee I brought it up to the owner,Denise that there were many aspects of the gymnastics classes that were unorganized and lacking basics & technique. She asked me to maybe give some input to her other coaches and even paid me to do a week long evaluation that we could combine with her coaches knowledge to improve the classes. After the week of Evaluation, she had a meeting and her coaches were not happy, they said they felt offended by me and me offering help. Mind u I have 10+ Years experience and these are college students who say they know better. So I was dropped from the schedule, the owner Denise said she wanted to just wait before revisiting the issues and i was still "employed". . I was asked by a parent to do a private lesson, so I only taught that. Then when I asked to bring in my own equipment because this studio has BARE MINIMUM, they said no because it was a liability. The manager mentioned to the parent that they had a new acro teacher and maybe her daughter should try that. She said no students like the acro because they teach tumbling NOT acro, so I asked the manager in front of the parent about the curriculum and she said she wouldnt discuss it in front of the parent, which confused me but I just said okay. And we all left. About an hr later I was called and fired for " bad mouthing coaches to parents" In MY PROFESSIONAL OPINION, I dont know HOW this studio still has gymnastics. Their dance is good. Their martial arts is EXCELLENT! BUT THEIR GYMNASTICS IS BEYOND WORTHLESS. You will pay for UNtrained college students to teach the same things all the time, with no basics and NO TECHNIQUE to be taught. The prices are LOW because they reflect the QUALITY.

I dont doubt that this is a wonderful studio! If I had a daughter I would love to send her here. However, I do not recommend the adult classes. I went to take an adult class because I used to dance and wanted to get back in the studio. I was doing it for fun as a way to cope with stress and get out of the house. The instructor was VERY snooty. She acted as though she was better than everyone (which, Im certain she is a better dancer, but definitely not a better person). It was as if anyone who wasnt there to dance as a career was inferior and at the end of the class she basically shut me down saying I wasnt ready to be a part of that class, and didnt offer any solutions as to how to improve or what other class I could take instead. I dont understand the purpose of offering an adult class, but treating it as though the students are preparing for Broadway. I will definitely not return to this studio. I refuse to be treated as an inferior by a fellow adult and artist. I believe in fostering a constructive and motivating environment. Not one where people go home and feel like a terrible person after class.

This is the absolute worst dance studio ever. VERY RUDE, UNORGANIZED, UNPROFESSIONAL, AND RACIST. If you or your child are of African American decent, this is not the place for you. You and your money are not welcome in this studio. The hip hop teacher, Derrick, was nice to us. However, the owners made it very clear that we were not wanted. The jazz teachers were always late and would cancel class at the last minute ALL THE TIME. My experience here was just plain sad. I hate I put my child through this experience.

I enrolled my daughters in this dance studio The first couple months were really good the coachs they had were awesome!! All the coachs that my daughter started with left. The current coachs are young and my daughter says they talk to much about their personal issues. I can agree with her my daughter has not progressed at all for about a year. Every class she has attended I havent seen any new routines same thing every class very discouraging to my daughter.

I really would like my grandchildren to have a better coach in tumble bunnies the girls they have to teach there seem not interested they dont show enthusiasm that the male coach that used to work there had .... the new coaches are only looking at themselves in the mirror but show no enthusiasm in teaching this little ones. This studio was very different in the old days is not the same studio!

My granddaughter was here for the Princess Camp. The instructors were soooo patient with me AND my granddaughter! Every time I went, I observed them spending time with my granddaughter. All the staff were courteous, kind, respectful, helpful and eager to help and please. Well definitely come back.
