Pelio School of Dance

2.0

By anonymousp

My daughter has danced here for a few years. Kendra is an amazing teacher but the owner and her husband Jim is very rude. Kendra gets put into the middle of everything because Lisa (the owner) is never there or doesn't show up when she knows that someone needs to talk to her. You only see Lisa a few times during the year... once on the first day of class to collect tuition, again at the production fee time and then again to pass out recital tickets. She doesn't stay long at all. If you ask for a receipt you can forget it... she will tell you to use your check. She doesn't do receipts. She is always downgrading the children. I don't mind correcting a child as everyone needs to have constructive criticism and know how to deal with it but when you tell an 9 year old that a 5 year old is dancing better than them and they should be ashamed of themselves.. that is uncalled for. She is not the kind of role model that I want for my children. Unfortunately we have left the studio and we are sad because the girls loved Kendra but several families have decided to leave due to the behaviors of Jim and Lisa. ...read more

Toe to Toe Dance Wear

5.0

By Carol

I broke my ankle and am undergoing physical therapy. Since I'm planning to go back to competition ballroom dancing, I need to get different dance shoes that are adjustable to allow for some swelling that will occur when I start dancing again as well as lower, more supportive heels. The staff at Toe to Toe and especifically the owner, Carol, have been incredible at listening to the requirements, understanding my needs, and making suggestions. I showed everything that they suggested to my physical therapist. She thought all the styles that they suggested were ideal. I'll have attractive shoes that will work well for competing and are physical therapist approved! I've always ordered my shoes from Toe to Toe. This experience just reinforces my decision and proves that they're incredibly good at what they do. In addition, they have fabulous customer service. I would highly recommend them whether you're going to their store or ordering online. ...read more
