NH S. G.
5/5
As I sit here reading Tracey Landon’s review I tend to question the review for a magnitude of reasons. I have been a member of this since the opening day I have seen a lot of changes from outgrowing the first studio to the current new studio the dance school is located. The studio itself has well over 100 students not 50ish and the classes are all filled to max size. 50+ parents and students move through the doors on Tuesdays alone I know I’m stuck at the facility most of the night...
I’ve watched hundreds of students walk in the doors and move throughout the studio. I have two daughter who currently dance with the studio and have grown from having two left feet to winning numerous performance awards ranging from high golds to platinum along with winning complete competitions. These girls have been with Alicia’s from it’s start along with many other students and parents who attend this facility, the owner is highly involved in the local community and public and always giving back to the girls and boys at the facility.
The class structure as referred to in the previous review does not coincide with the review based on the classes. You would not be at the studio 4 nights in a row for classes based on her class structure that’s been the same since I first started at the original studio. My oldest daughter who is numerous classes and the competition team she is there MAX 3 nights depending on classes and times maybe an extra night if cancelled due to weather.
The competitive dance team at this facility is an invite only as in you are held to a higher standard then every other performer at the location. The classes are friendly and fun but well structured along with a great learning environment. I can assure you if a student was being treated unfairly and it was brought to the facilities owner it would be handled accordingly and not allowed to continue, it would also be address with the student’s parents of parties involved.
I would encourage that you try this studio for yourself and not let someone who I personally don’t recall ever seeing at the studio impair your judgement. They hold 2 recitals throughout the year so you can see your little ones progress, the prices are fair and size of studio is accommodating. The owner has recently renovated the waiting area to make it more comfortable and she has plans on updating both dance studios as well. IF your looking for more accurate reviews check out the Facebook page and you will see numerous reviews as well.
