Hart Academy of Dance Reviews
Hart Academy of Dance is a wonderful studio. My daughter has been dancing here since she was in mommy and me; she is now 8 yrs old. All the teachers and owner truly care about their students. There are classes if you're just beginning to dance or if you would like to dance at a competitive level. We can't say enough wonderful things about Hart and the environment they provide for our daughter. They offer a free trial class if you are considering joining :)

Apr 02, 2018 · Danielle HooverI normally don't write reviews, but this place deserves it!If you are looking for a great place to teach your kids actual dance, this is it. My two Daughters have both gone through here. I can't think of a better group of people to have be a part of your family. I do mean family, they are very much a big part of ours.From teaching them about dance, and doing it fairly and with class, to being mentors to yourchildren. The teacher's here are more than just teachers. I am forever in debt for the great job they have in helping me mold my girls into what they are today.5 stars is just not enough!
Aug 07, 2020 · Jason HughesHart is the best dance academy ever! It's very kid-friendly and generous!! It includes several fun and nice teachers and staff plus the friendly kids there!! I'm so glad I'm in the Hart family 💖💖
Apr 18, 2018 · mI attended Hart for about five years. Once, a teacher was going around stretching us, she got to me, yanked my leg up, and I remember her telling me i just wasn't flexible enough. When I went to the doctor after I was sure i was NOT "just being a drama queen" turns out my hamstring was pulled. Next class she got very angry at me, saying that if my hamstring was pulled i "wouldn't be able to walk." So i asked her if i could see her phd because i WAS hurt. That is the most vivid memory I have. Others are me running out of the studio crying because a teacher told me i needed to stop talking to my friend or he was going to kick me out, a teacher throwing a tennis ball at me because i did not get the perfect split leap, a teacher screaming at me because i did not kick high enough, a teacher telling the competition team i was the reason we lost, multiple injuries, the only girl in a dance not to get a solo, girls started to not want to talk to me, by the time i quit i had ONE friend, i remember when I quit comp team i realized how much they were favored, the costumes were sometimes too sexy and made me uncomfortable. So, dear Hart, i don't miss you. 😘 (my name has been changed)(no exaggerations in this post)And to top it all off here i am, about 4 years later, still having problems with the leg that was injured to this day.
