I've been taking my child to BDS for over a year now and have been nothing but pleased. The contract clearly states that payment is required for the semesters run and while some may not agree with that --- it is no secret, scam nor means for alert. It's clearly marked on the contract. My child's classes have always been 45 minutes long and it's the perfect amount of time for her at that young age. She's learned so much in this year and I can notably mark her progress. This studio instructs for the 45 minutes rather than practice over and over for a dance rehearsal. Shows are optional and practice is done at a seperate time so as not to interfere with paid instruction. Highly unusual around Pittsburgh. Visit the studio for yourself and make an informed decision based on an in person meeting and class tryout before committing to a contract. That's an offering that's normal practice for this great studio.
