Kivett's Smooth Steps

I just stumbled on upon the previous review by accident and felt it couldn't be ignored. My children have danced at this studio for many years and the above statements seem far from the truth. I have never witnessed costumes that I felt were inappropriate and music choices are alway edited. The prices are comparable to those in the area and the recitals are tone of he best around. While the owner of the studio may not be able to please everyone, there are many who are extremely happy. The studio itself has been around for over 50 years and there are thousands of past, and present dancers who were and are more then happy with the dance education they have received. I hope this helps you out when choosing a dance studio Pros: Great recitals, beautiful costumes, educated instructors and family owned for over 50 years! more

My child attended this dance school for over 5 years. She was in the same group of girls pretty much the entire time. She was on a competition team, which one year went to Nationals. We ran into the owner (who also taught at least one of the classes my daughter was in each year) a few months after my daughter stopped attending the school, and she had NO IDEA who my daughter was. It's too bad my daughter spent 5 years with a teacher who is so self-absorbed that she couldn't even PRETEND that she remembered my daughter, if for no other reason than to make my daughter feel good. Cons: Lots of bad attitudes, very expensive, teachers don't relate well to students, some of the music/costume selections were inappropriate for the age groups using them more
