Dance Dimension — Local services in Abington

My daughter went there for 11 years - as the kids got older the atmosphere got worse. She plays favorites with her own kids and participates in teenage drama. The last few dance recitals showcased her children more than anyone else's. When you a running a business you need to be impartial. The teacher and her husband gossip about students with other students. Very unprofessional and not good role models. I was very disappointed. In the time when we were there two large groups of older kids that left one right after the other - all related to a drama filled atmosphere. Not an environment I want my daughter in there is enough drama with teenage girls without grown adults adding to it.

My recommendation is to meet the owner and the rest of the staff, attend one of their shows and ask the parents why they love it there. Ask to see video of prior performances, ask for their qualifications, do everything you can do to challenge my view or anyone else's. My family means everything to me and this dance studio literally is a saving grace for my niece. Well worth the...

My daughter recently started taking musical theater classes at this studio. To say that she’s having an amazing experience is an understatement. I honestly feel like she’s a changed kid after starting here, she has way more confidence, meeting lots of new friends and is so excited each week for class. The staff is amazing, welcoming and kind and they do a fantastic job with the students. They offer lots of extra activities which has give my daughter opportunity to grow and make new friends! I highly recommend...
