My son, who is 14, participated in his first Tap class. He was very excited. The trial class was free (I didnt know that when I reserved a spot), which was a bonus! I couldn't watch the class to see how it went because parents aren't allowed to stay in the bldg or the lounge area. I WAS able to peek thru a slightly opened curtain from the outside sidewalk but didnt see much... plus I looked like a peeping Tom, LOL. The class was very small, which was better than being crowded. I'm hoping that will lend itself to more individual teaching and correction. The studio is convenient to my home, being right in town and parking is easy and very close. The monthly tuition is reasonable. The class areas are large as expected and the young girl at the door was helpful. They also let my son use a pair of tap shoes for the first class until he can be fitted for his own pair. I thought there would've been some type of introduction to instructors or an orientation to inform parents and students of the routine in the class, the style of teaching or stance or creed in the way they approach their particular arts, etc., but there wasn't. Nothing bad about our first experience but I was disappointed that I couldn't see the warm up and routine. I noticed (they the window) my son doing the exercise wrongly, repeatedly, and if I'd seen the drill I could work with him to correct it thru the week in prep for the next week. Maybe it's not a big deal and he will get it next time. Either way, we plan to return and Tap out the season! :)

Great people great studio. It would be a mistake to not try Elevate.
Fantastic family atmosphere. Low pressure and very supportive to foster a love of dancing and performing arts within children.
This family business is owned and operated by two moral and ethical individuals. They have a passion for teaching music and dance and to create a fun-learning environment for all of their students (adult and children). They would not support or encourage any kind of ridicule toward another dancer(s).
