Precision Dance Academy

Excellent dance program — my 2 and 5 year olds attend. Decent pricing, big, clean dance rooms with windows in the hall for parents to watch without hovering.
Try to arrive ready — it gets super crowded with students, parents, and all the stuff you schlep with you. There’s both a lobby and a waiting room with some books and toys.
The past students sell used shoes which helps with supplies costs.
Parking is madness, but if you keep heading east in the lot it eventually leads you to the back and from there you can access lots of underground parking.
They require girls’ hair to be in a bun, and they mean it. Get one of those elastics with the attached hairnet thingies. And keep hair clips in the dance bag too.
There are a few little restaurants nearby (see Unilocal) and a nice McDonald’s across the street with a PlayPlace. A Me & Ed’s Pizza nearby too.
This is our third dance school in our early «career» and it looks like this one will be a keeper. They offer lessons as young as 2 years old, boys included, and even offer hip-​hop classes starting at age 3!
Pretty chaotic this week but it is the first week of the school year. They have recitals in June a Michael J Fox Theatre, and even the 2 year olds perform a routine! Sounds impossible, but some older students perform the dance with them, so if a kid freaks out they just swoop the kid in their arms and keep on dancing — this is a nice touch after forking out all the costs for the recital tickets, costume fee, and wanting to get a video of your kid on stage!
Looking forward to the year ahead!
I docked one star for the parking confusion, crowded waiting areas/​lobby, and the fact that we’ve only been there twice so far…
