Rude, dishonest studio! As most others have already stated, Center Stage is far less than respectable. We have been very unhappy with them. Like a previous poster stated, they are very dishonest and strongly lacking in integrity. They charge too much, and even when I asked to be taken off of their auto-pay, the still ran my credit card without my permission. On top of the outstanding fees and monthly tuition that I have paid for my daughter to be on one of their company teams, they still find more fees to charge you and are unwilling to explain exactly what the extra fees are for. I was finally able to talk to the owner last week about a problem I have with them, but it took THREE weeks of leaving messages in their office and leaving voicemails and never hearing back from them. I was requesting a refund of the recital fee I had paid, because my daughter is not participating in the recital. They refused to give me a refund and repeatedly told me ""that's just how we do things."" I was so angry that I left. And now every time I walk in to the studio I am greeted with rude stares from the icy receptionists at the front desk. We will not be returning to this studio when my daughter's contract is up and I will give them a negative review to all my friends. I would absolutely not recommend working with them. I give them a few more years of operation before their greed runs them into the ground.
