East Coast Performing Arts

A professional, safe, and nurturing studio that puts on spectacular recitals with age appropriate, yet innovative and beautiful choreography. A classy and well run dance studio with some of the best dance teachers in Florida.

*** amendment of previous review*** I must say, I was saddened and hurt by one individual’s lack of courtesy and professionalism. I can only hope I’ll be able to one day rescind my statement about her friendliness (or lack thereof), but I have been contacted by the owner/director Ms./Mrs. Lundquist, and expressed lament for said behavior and treatment. In fairness, the instructor (Ms. Erika) is wonderful and the professionalism showed by the owner to address my concerns is exceptional. Therefore I’ve amended my rating to a more appropriate standing... I still think the smaller dancers should be taught how to dance rather than a choreography they haven’t acquired the skills/rhythm required to perform, technique should be a priority. I’ll reconsider my daughter’s enrollment. Beautiful new studios but located in a poorly lit, lonely/isolated area and parking lot is poorly lit as well. Expectations/ requirements of the parent are not clearly or professionally communicated and when you attempt to call or contact them, the front desk manager isn’t personable and is rarely polite. I would happily continue to drive in the pitch dark area and sit through poorly ventilated viewing area for my child IF I’d just been asked why I was unhappy with the services. My child is 5 and rather than teaching her technique and rythmn/steps/etc, she was expected to learn choreography. How can she dance when she’s not being TAUGHT to dance. I think a dancer doesn’t just “know” how to plié (for example), they must be taught the precise positioning of the body etc. Same approach should apply for all types of dancing. My interest was in my daughter learning a talent which sadly doesn’t appear to be happening with any of the young girls in her particular group. My child is tone, flexible and fit... she’s been enrolled with gymnastics for 2 years, Music and swimming as well. Our experience with other teachers/owners/instructors has always been with the utmost respect and professionalism whereas here you may rarely hear a hello or have a nice day.

I have been going to this dance school for years and I have grown both as a dancer and a person the teachers there push you to grow and help you out along the way
