★★★★★Jan HerbertWe have been SBDC customers for more than 15 years with 2 girls & 1 short time boy. Ballet training is excellent! My girls have been to Joffrey Chicago, SAB, Ballet West, & to Houston summer intensives & have seen increased YAGP scores for the past 3 years & top 12 Ensemble in SF regionals - in a duo they performed together I might add. Couldn't ask for better attention & direction from Miss Kit, Mr. Anton & Miss Michelle. My ballerina is definitely set in the right direction.

★★★★★Allof Hogen-EschOur daughters have been going here for years now. (4 years for my eldest) They both love it and look forward to it every week. Lots of support from the older girls and parents. Great community.
★★Sara BrylowskiI thought this school was just what we were looking for when we moved to the area, and things went really well for my 5 year old. She was having a lot of fun and getting a solid introduction to tap and ballet. During the holiday season, a bad taste was left in my mouth when they charged families the full monthly amount despite the fact that they were closed for the holidays, and we were only having two classes each of those months. Greedy. Then my daughter received her first "report card" and had negative marks for not being focused enough in class. Did I mention she's 5? What really did it for me, though, is when I went in to switch her class. I know that they offer quite a few different sessions of her intro class, and I had just received a new job and was unable to get her to the Thursday afternoon class anymore. I was hoping to get the Saturday class, but was open to one of the evening classes. Nope. No. I was told that it simply would not do. Preparations were underway for the summer recital (3 months away), and class transfers were no longer allowed. I honestly thought they were kidding. I told them that I'd have to withdraw her then because there was no way I could get her there, and they gruffly printed the withdrawal paperwork for me. Bottom line, they take themselves way too seriously, and find every way possible to bilk you for more money even though they're not providing the service.
