The Talent Factory

I was very disappointed in this place. I brought my 10 yr old daughter to «try» a class. The staff was not welcoming at all they just pointed us in the direction of the class and said who the teacher was. (I guess she was too busy socializing with the other parents to get up from her chair and walk us to the room) the teacher Lindsey was not friendly at all. The only question she had was «is she going to do the Christmas routine it’s in two weeks»? How would I know this as my daughter has never taken a dance class. Halfway through the class my daughter comes out and tell me that Miss Lindsey sat her to the side and told her to watch! Unacceptable behavior from the so called staff and instructors. My daughter was crushed! Needless to say I will not be taking her back ever and to the staff and Miss Lindsey I hope you are more involved with potential dance students in the future!

My daughter loves this place. The teachers are very serious about their training and are very good at what they do. My daughter has only been going to the Talent Factory for about two months but has learned more during those two months than she learned in a year at her former studio. Also, the two ladies that work at the front desk are always super kind and very professional.

Love this place it’s an awesome place for dance and cheer everyone is really nice there too:)

Great place for gymnastics however their housekeeping leaves a lot to be desired. The men’s bathroom has had a burnt out light bulb for 4 weeks straight now. It has never had soap to wash your hands. The women’s restroom has smelled like urine since we have been coming here. It is also always out of soap. The gymnasium mirror have huge cracks which are very dangerous. Obviously the owner is more concerned with collecting our payments than maintaining their business.

My daughter has been at Talent Factory for about 3 months now trying her hand at a Hip Hop class, she was very excited. In the last 3 months I have had NO communication with her young male instructor (strike 1).The classes I have stayed to watch were out of control. Girls were pulling their pants down and their leotards up showing their backsides, screaming, talking and the instructor had no control
(strike 2).He has been telling them that he was going to record them and put it on the internet so they could «practice». I had taken my daughter dressed in her costume 3 weeks in a row but each time he had some reason why it was cancelled. I finally went to the front desk where I was met with a girl chatting with her friend eating candy. I asked her if they would be recording in the studio and her response was «maybe they are and maybe their not.“I was shocked at her snotty sarcastic attitude.(strike 3) I went on to explain that I was uncomfortable with the lack of communication and I wanted to know why the girls were being recorded and where the video would be posted. She had no idea. Mind you her and her sister (also very snotty) are supposed to be running the show. Long story short he only recorded the girls so he can add them to his «reel» for HIS talent agent so he can get jobs. He lied to the girl and told them it was for their benefit and then told me something completely different in front of my daughter leaving her very disappointed. It has become VERY apparent that this studio only invests in the girls that are there multiple days a week. It’s a complete madhouse with no one overseeing the instructors or what’s going on in the studios. Not to mention the front desk staff has a lot to learn when it comes to dealing with the public and being professional. I guess some parents use it as a daycare and don’t care to get involved or ask questions but I’m not that kind of parent. It’s my job to protect my children and make sure they are comfortable. So on to the next studio, hope we have better luck.

I came here for my niece’s birthday and this is the PERFECT spot for a kid’s party.
There’s a large room in front with room to comfortably fit 25 – 30 people. The actual gymnasium is huge with so much for kids (and adults) to do. Climbing rope, foam pit, trampolines, bounce areas, etc.
