The teachers are caring and know what they are doing. The owner is very nice and helps you decide what classes would be best for your child and she seems to really take into account that your child is an individual and tries to meet each child’s needs, unlike many other studios who just want to take your money. They take the time to watch/assess your child and then tell you what class would be best for you, taking into considering your budget and time restraints. It’s a small place but the people are nice and friendly and the teachers want to make sure that your child learns. It’s a great choice for my daughter.

It’s pretty difficult to get beyond the pretentiousness of the staff. My daughter attended tap and ballet class for several months, and I did not see any growth. I can teach her more about tap and ballet than they did. The studio is dirty and run-down. One of the teachers would hold her two-year-old daughter, who was not enrolled in the class, the entire time she was teaching tap. When she finally put her down, she placed her in a pack-and-play that was INSIDE the dance room. Unprofessional, unclean, uncaring. Never again.

awful! awful! awful! is the only word that comes to mind. Everyone on staff is so unprofessional, the owner, her husband and some of the instructors were all equally rude and lack customer service skills. They are so unorganized, they do not give direction or instructions to the parents or children and they expect everyone to know what to do. The children began the season learning some steps and had a short routine going and about five weeks into the season, they decide to teach the children the routine for the recital. Shouldn’t they have done the recital routine from the start? the children all froze and were completely lost. The June 2013 recital was the worst experience. I do not recommend this studio to anyone. They keep the cost down so that people can return, but i would rather pay a little more and have a better experience somewhere else.

AWFUL! AWFUL! AWFUL! Although my 2yr old daughter enjoyed participating in class I would never send her back. The instructor was nice, however, she never had answers to any of the questions, would show up a few min late and finish early. The entire staff is unprofessional and very rude. Information for recital was never giving to us and we were always given the run around and then we were told by the owner that we couldn’t get tickets for the show. After explaining that we were not informed, she responded with an attitude and said we would have to just drop our 2 yr old off to perform and pick her up when done. Last rehearsal was the last straw! We were only allowed to drop off child and leave her with complete strangers for 3 hours! We left her for a bit only because she was sooo excited, however, we went right back… The staff is beyond rude, disorganized and inconsiderate. Most parents their felt the same way. I doubt they’ll return too. Do not take your young child to this studio!

Family run studio is large enough to provide a variety of classes at convenient hours yet still maintains an intimate, friendly & welcoming environment. My daughter is going into her 3^rd year with DI and I continue to be impressed with the talent of the teachers (Miss Sara Rose, Miss Jeanette, Miss Elysse). I admittedly have a very minimal background in dance, but my personal observations are that the curriculum is thoughtfully planned so that the students have a solid foundation in movement which is built on as they get into more complicated choreography. I’m delighted with my daughter’s progress as a little ballerina.
The rates here are the most reasonable in the area, especially considering the high caliber of teachers on staff (I shopped and personally visited the other studios in town before deciding on Dance Image).
It can get a little chaotic at the studio between classes with students coming in and going out at once. Some words of advice: show up on time, wear the appropriate ‘uniform’ (each level has its own dancewear requirements) and make sure the bun is clean and tight. The teachers hold you to a very high standard.

My daughter is 17 and has taken dance at another dance studio for 9 years. How i wish we had discovered Dance image sooner. Each student is given respect and treated alike. NO FAVORITES. All the parents are very welcoming. Ms. Debbi is strict but makes it fun. We are both very happy here.

I agree with Valerie T. My daughter was also in this class. The classes sometimes started up to 10 minutes late and they were done by 5:30 on the dot. Even with just 3 girls at the end… she couldn’t really keep it together. My daughter was in the recital in June. The girls froze! They were never invited to the dress rehearsal nor did they offer us to purchase a recital Tshirt. We have yet to receive our DVD, BUT THEY SURE CASHED OUR CHECK RIGHT AWAY! I think they could care less about the children that sign up through the city. Save your money!

SO UNPROFESSIONAL. Sent my 3 yr old daughter here for ballet for 2 months and me and my SO didn’t even know the instructors name! She never introduced herself. She had a class of about 10 to begin with but the little girls hated it so much the class dwindled to about 4 kids at the end. It is ridiculous because it isn’t even a ballet class. They have them do twinkle twinkle little star and follow the leader. I didn’t pay $ 55 to have a stranger teach my kid something she already knows. I didn’t even send my daughter back to finish because she was so damn bored of it. Did I mention the instructor didn’t even bother to learn the kids names??? For gods sake at least have them wear name tags. The classes started late frequently but you better believe the instructor was ready to boot us out at 5:30. One lesson they even had two kids teach the class! Outrageous. A complete waste of money and I would NEVER recommend this place… in fact, save your money.
