We signed our daughter up to take dace at ARTS this year. The quality of the classes were very poor. About 2 months into our classes, there was a group of 3 year olds added to my 6 year old's class.

They all work together to create the best learning enviroment possible. Each teacher truly cares for the students! If you are looking for a dance studio, i would completely...
