B	Brandi Alexis on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We have had nothing but positive experiences with Not Just Another Dance Studio. My daughters have been going there for 3 years, since they were able to dance. The staff is lovely and super helpful. We have also had 2 birthday parties at the studio. Which were very affordable and all the kids had a blast.! I can't say enough good things about the studio as a whole.
M	Michele Bryczka on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We love our dance studio! So happy to be back in classes, seeing friendly faces every week welcoming us. The staff are so helpful and knowledgeable, instructors are fantastic. My step daughter started here just taking an acro class and is now in multiple classes, including competition. She loves it and is so excited to go to class every week. We wouldn’t choose any other studio!
P	PlayVille Hamilton on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We have been a part of the NJADS dance family for nearly 5 years now. I came across them when I was new to Hamilton and looking for a dance class for my rambunctious 3 year old. Miss Amanda was super friendly and at first I decided to register because of the excellent prices and laid back dress code (for my wildly creative daughter). Fast forward 5 years and both my daughters are competitive dancers and NJADS and it has become a second family for us! My reasons for dancing at this studio have changed significantly...we now stay because of the fantastic staff and how they encourage every child to be their best self, for the families who have become some of my very best friends and for the smiles on my kids faces every time we enter the studio!
J	Jane Belanger on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Instructor has been fine, volume of music was a bit too much for a toddler class. Very frustrated with admin. Way too many emails means we miss information that was actually important for the class registrations. Signed up for a waitlist got an email that they weren't sure when there would be room but there were other free classes, then two weeks later the day of the class we get an email that she is enrolled and charged for that class. No notice at all. When we reasonably asked that that class not be charged to us we were sent the policy. (Which we missed due to the volume of emails from this company) The detail that the charge would occurr automatically was not clear to us. If you are a "dance parent" maybe this studio is for you, but the average person will find the communication overwhelming and unnecessary. Going to look elsewhere for future dance classes even though the location is convenient. Not happy. *Edit: Almost immediately after this review was posted NJADS contacted us and refunded the first class. Wouldn't consider it after emails and phone calls, but after the review... Maybe it just took the review to get our issue seen by the right person at NJADS. Volume of email is still overwhelming. They need at maximum a weekly email directing you to their website for details. Happy we got the refund but the experience overall has left a bad taste.
C	Catherine Scott on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My daughter has danced with this studio since she was 3 years old, she cried every class for the first few months. Needless to say 4 years later she is thriving and loves this studio. The staff and teachers have been extremely professional and kind hearted, they encourage each child to be their best, all while having fun. I highly recommend this studio.
J	Jennie Clodd on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My children and I recently joined the NJADS family and were welcomed with open arms. The teachers are patient and use gentle corrections to improve the dancer's technique. Both of my girls have grown new confidence with not just their dance but with themselves as young adults.
S	Samantha Marie on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My daughter has been taking dance lessons here for two months now. Miss Sydney, her teacher is a joy to be around. My child is very active, and loves to run around in class. She understands that they are still little (2.5 years old) and encourages the students to interact with her and participate in the class. I also felt very welcomed by the Owner, Amanda. We were sent a nice welcome package, and they have an online system where you can register for classes, check your payments, etc. This is the first dance studio that I have ever been to, and between the quality of the classes/teacher, and the fact that it’s affordable (we are able to put our child in for a full school year worth of classes), we are looking forward to many years here. There is also ample parking behind the building. It was a bit hard to find at first, but once you know it’s there, you won’t forget it!
N	Nicola O'Connell on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My oldest daughter has danced at NJADS since 2012 when she was just 4 and is now turning 15! The relationships and bonds she has developed at the studio with peers, teachers and the staff have made her thrive and discover her passion for dance. Her teachers and studio owner Amanda have been the best role models for her and helped her in studio and out of studio. She wouldn’t be the amazing young lady she is today I think with out their input. We love our dance family.
