We *love* Club Dance! Boys, if you are looking for a studio that is accepting, encouraging, and challenging, this is the studio for you! Theres something for every dancer of all ages and skill level at Club Dance and you will feel a sense of belonging here! We just switched studios two months ago and the transition has been a positive experience for all of us. We couldnt be happier! From the very first day our son C.J. joined Club Dance, to present, he is greeted with a smile and a "Hi C.J.! How are you?" or "Hi C.J.! Have fun tonight!" each time he walks through the door. This immediately makes him feel comfortable and a part of the Club (no pun intended). This is very important to my husband and I and we are both extremely impressed with all of the staff! And when I say everyone is so welcoming, I also mean all the dancers, too! In the couple of months C.J. has been dancing here, kids from all levels, ages, and classes have come up to talk with him. One guy from his Hip Hop class afterwards even came up to him and said, "Great job in class". Other dancers have come up to introduce themselves, also. This makes the change to Club Dance all worth while and we are so happy to have made the switch! But what impresses me even more than their welcoming staff and friendly atmosphere is their highly motivated and talented instructors. They truly love what they do and pass that passion on to their students. Im already noticing C.J.s technique improve in this very short time frame. I cant wait to watch him dance at competitions this year! Thank you, Club Dance! We are extremely excited to be a part of this dance family!!!!

This is the worst school for bullying! My daughter had a horrible experience both years she danced there. The first year she was bullied by multiple students and we never complained to anyone until the girls went to the owner claiming it was my daughter. When I spoke with the owner Kelly she resolved this issue. However, then my daughter was labeled by the staff as a trouble maker. One of the front desk daughters told my daughter that her mother called her that. My daughter never bullied anyone or tried to cause drama with anyone. Later in the year my daughter was accused of bullying someone. She was on list of girls Christina, one of the staff members told me. Later, they realized she wasnt involved. Instead of apologizing she claimed it was a misunderstanding. My daughter did not want to come back the next year, but the girls that continued to bully her all the way up to the day of the recital were not coming back. I even witnessed some of the girls yell at my daughter & try to say unkind things, when they didnt realize I was there. When she came back the second year, a friend of hers made friends with new girls on the team & started bullying her on social media & through text calling her curse words. I was able to block them from her phone & social media, but then they tried to have other friends do it through their devices on different accounts. When we brought this to Kellys attention, she assured my daughter that she would speak to them. However, they continued to do it outside & inside class. Even making up lies about her that she did things to them. We ended up quiting dance & now my daughter doesnt want to dance anymore.

This is a review that I hope can bring light to any incoming, excited dancers & parents prior to their enrollment. Beware- A few, select students in Club Dance Studios Strut Club are very clickish, undisciplined and unfriendly. I took my daughter out due to the lack of real reprimand by the staff for the constant misbehavior. Ive made it very known to administration regarding their behavior and it was lightly acknowledged but remained an ongoing issue as the girls failed to take any warning seriously. If you have a teenage daughter, beware that there is bullying present at the school and not very much is done to put a stop to it. I was told that it is a very sensitive topic as the girls are under-age but we hear about all of the horror stories of bullying, after the fact, in daily news. Very disappointed, as my daughter is serious about dance training and being friendly with like-minded peers. This situation caused unnecessary stress on her. It is my hope that the Owner of the studio is aware of this and has a serious talk & with students, parents & administration regarding bullying & strict reprimand policies.

The person who commented about no technique.... Look at our class schedule, my daughter is 9 and she is getting 15 hours a week for solid technique classes. And we pay less then some studios who get 9 hours at the same level. During peak competition season we might rehearse a little more but not more then 5 hours a week.... That still leaves 10 hours of classes. There are studios that work really hard to bring Club dance Down with all sorts of ridiculous rumors. The truth is that they are terrified of how high Club Dance is setting the bar.... In everything... classes... Costumes... organization... And tuition price. Not to mention...cleaning up awards at the competitions. My daughter received 4 separate judges special "technique awards" this year a Somehow I dont think that is a coincidence! Oh and by the way.... She loves all the GLITTER!

Club Dance is awesome! My daughter switched from a nearby large competitive studio a couple of years ago and I am SO HAPPY we did! The atmosphere alone is so positive,my kids leave after each class feeling great about themselves. Every dancer is equally important to the team, not just the favorites like our old studio. It really is a TEAM atmosphere, all of the girls are so supportive of one another. She has IMPROVED ENORMOUSLY in her dance technique and style since coming to Club Dance. Their teachers are so professional and all have an extensive dance background. They take the time to break down the technique and properly teach it so each dancer really understands it. I just signed up my toddler and I cannot wait to see how she grows with this studio! Thank you Club Dance!

Its great if you like to teach your child to lie and cheat when going to conventions Alexa is a teacher there who friends have told me multiple times of her teaching convention combos to kids and telling them to lie to get scholarships. I love to watch them there is no doubt they are good but I just cant teach my kid that its right to do the things Alexa teaches the kids to do there... After all her motto says a lot "trust no one suck up to everyone unless your me" great advise I love my kid to learn NOT!!!!! All she does is gloat over her soloists and sister... There is so many amazing kids there but no way would I put my kid in that environment no matter how good they are!

We made the move to Club Dance over a year ago and we could not be happier! My two oldest daughters are on their Company and are constantly challenged and pushed to their best. My youngest just started her first tap/jazz/tumble class and absolutely loves it. Club Dance has the highest quality and level of training. The owner invests in her dancers by recruiting the best teachers and choreographers in the industry (both in house and guests). There are countless opportunities available to each dancer. Highly recommend!!
