Bad Experience!
After my daughter being at Metropolitan Dance studio for almost 4 years I took a job in Dallas, TX and left Denver for almost a year. We are now back in Denver and figured we would give Starstruck a chance to see if we liked it. After meeting Ms. Lisa (Owner) of the studio my wife and 10 year old daughter were excited to give the studio and chance and for her to get back into an activity she loves.
On the first night of her class she attended two classes and returned home. I could see that she had been crying. When I asked her about what happened, she said “The teacher Ms. AJ, stopped the class and looked in the mirror, and me that if I can’t get the move right then I need to leave her class.” My daughter is not a liar and has no reason to fabricate a story like this.
I called the studio and was unable to reach Ms. Lisa but did leave a message with the nice woman at the front desk. About an hour I received a call from Ms. AJ and she denied saying anything to my daughter and asked that she come in and gives the class another try. I would have had more respect for her if she admitted what she said and offered to apologize to my daughter. As the conversation continued I could sense the attitude of Ms. AJ and that she was being anything but sincere. I told her that my daughter doesn’t lie and that I believed my daughter and whatever was said upset her and we absolutely would not be going back to the studio.
It is unfortunate, but money talks and I am confident that if Ms. AJ did this to my daughter, she has and will continue to act inappropriately in the future. My daughter as of tonight is back in dance, and has the twinkle in her eye again.
