The new direction the studio is going is Awesome. The format and guess teacher. All of my daughters dance instructors are awesome. The new owners have a lot to be proud of. Excellent staff. We love it more

Yikes. Good news first. The techniques are wonderful, the choreography is good and the talent is definitely there. The recital is professional looking and, from what I've heard, they win a lot of awards.\r \r But the drama, oy the drama. I couldn't stand to be in the same space as the owner. Just sucks the air out of the room. The same cluster of privileged moms/kids get all the goods leaving the crumbs for the rest. I think they were even approached by the producers of Dance Moms, and I can see why. The poor kids are kept there so late and worked so hard that it was no longer fun. \r \r The company classes are SO expensive, but you also get teachers from the Orlando Ballet, so there's that. The recreational classes are just Meh. And the parent meeting...WOW the parent meeting. That's all I'm going to say here.\r \r So glad we left. My child has never been happier at her new studio. more

This is our third year at this studio and my oldest daughters first year in company. I have read the previous review and some of the ones listed under the old studio, and I have to say it is hard to believe them all. I have never had any issues with drama or with any of the teachers. All of the interactions I have had with Michelle have been good, and she has always been great with my girls. Anytime I have had a question or doubt she has treated me with the same respect I have treated her. I have to admit that at first I thought the 3 hour long parent meeting was a bit ridiculous but looking back I think it did prepare me a bit for what was to come. Some of the emails are a bit ""short"" but it is understandable when they are sending them to soo many ppl as well as responding to a million questions. It is on the expensive side as far a company goes but I think the recreational classes are average compared to several studios. All in all the teachers are great with the kids, and my girls love dancing there which is what is most important to me. more

There is so much to comment about this studio it is difficult to find a proper starting point so I will just start from the beginning. Last year, my daughter auditioned for and was accepted into the company competition team as well as the Magic Mini team. We were all so excited for the prospect of a new and exciting season full of positive dance experiences. We quickly learned that this studio (that incidentally was opened under a different name due to the director having to file bankruptcy for the old studio, which was named more
