I have had my girls take dance at several different studios. I was getting very frustrated. The studios were cliquey, and they didn't care about proper technique. I wondered if I was just going to have to give up on having my girls really learn how to dance. I really like what we get at Linda Fenton's. The teachers are very knowledgeable and talented. They teach in such a way that the girls get excited about dancing, but are learning how to do it properly. The teachers make it fun and challenging. The teachers have always cared very much for the girls' well being. I have watched them go the extra mile many times. I love their choreography. It is fun to watch, and is not boring for the girls. Almost all of the teachers have their own kids take dance at the studio. They want everyone to get a good dance education, and have a strong positive experience in the process. My husband and I like that the dancers must be dressed in proper and modest dance attire-the latest skimpy fad is never allowed. The costumes are chosen as part of the dance, and to accent the beauty of the dancers, not to ever see how much skin you can show, or what body parts can be seen. If you have an issue that needs to be dealt with, they are always ready and willing to try and help you work things out in a way that will give your child the best experience possible. I have sat in the foyer three to four days a week, for the past three years, and I have never seen an issue dealt with inappropriately. I am glad that I was able to find a studio that could be such a positive dance and social experience for my girls.
