Dance Housee - Palos Heights, Illinois

I have 3 daughters that attend Dance Housee, all my girls are extremely happy and progressing great right before my eyes! Miss V is awesome and patient with my kids, she pushes them out of their comfort zone but continues to make them feel comfortable and confident. Dance Housee staff has truly made us feel at home! We are ready for another great season 🙂

DANCE HOUSEE is a super friendly space where the teachers and staff treat everyone like family. It's such a fun and comfortable environment to learn in, and Miss V is the best!
Highly recommend !!!

After being a member of the Dance Housee family for nearly 6 months, we decided that the studio would also be a great venue to host my daughter’s 4th birthday party. And I am so glad we made that decision, I have 0 regrets! In addition to the excellent curriculum of dance classes, Dance Housee also organizes parties and aims to make birthdays a magical and amazing experience for kiddos (whether a dancer or to the general public/party does not have to include dance related activity). My daughter’s party was princess themed and Miss Vienna (owner and instructor) was able to magically transform the studio into a princess extravaganza. She organized activities and entertainment and decorated which relieved a lot of stress for us as the parents, not needing to worry about the details that make the party extra special. My daughter and her guests had a super fun time and loved every minute of it. We were not disappointed. The best part for the adults was the way the space was divided nicely for the kids to have enough room to play and have fun, while the adults were able to chat and mingle among themselves peacefully. I highly recommend!

Dance Housee has been the perfect pick for my daughter as a beginner dancer. She started when she was 3 years old in Ballet Beauties and not only has attained so many new skills now 6 months later, but Dance Housee and Ms Vienna have also helped to reinforce confidence, teamwork, and the fun of learning. The close knit feel and vibes of the studio and staff feel welcoming, casual yet professional, and my daughter looks forward to dance every single week. She comes home excited to show the whole family what she has learned and continues to find joy practicing even outside of class. I have been very satisfied with Dance Housee and look forward to exploring other dance classes that they have to offer.

If your child loves to dance, Dance Housee is the place to be! They offer a variety of dance classes from ballet, hip hop, and lyrical just to name a few. My daughter is on the competitive dance team and absolutely loves it. The atmosphere in Dance Housee is true to the name! Ms. Vienna, the owner/teacher, is very dedicated and passionate about her students and the studio. We love Dance Housee!

Dance Housee has truly become a safe haven for my daughter. I've watched her come out of her shell as she learns a variety of dance styles (and she just started dancing at age 12). I've watched her be comforted as a brand new dancer. I've watched her make friends. And on top of all that, Ms. Vienna (owner of Dance Housee as well as dancer, teacher, and choreographer) and Ms. Camille (business manager) are amazing humans with caring and empathy for all who enter their space; and, they do it while maintaining and excellently teaching dance and dance techniques. I highly recommend Dance Housee.

I like the fact that the owner is the instructor for the little children and not some high schooler. The owner is very patient with the children and makes the classes fun while they learn. She answers all questions. The woman at the desk is helpful and pleasant.

I advise against it! Just don't do it!!!! My child and I learned the hard way.

They do not conduct business with integrity. The owner and officer manager are deceptive and manipulative and will do anything to get their way and needs met.

Customer service - They are sweet and nice until you don't agree with them. Doesn't matter what it is, can range from disagreeing with a song, a costume choice, or elaborate accessories to paying your bill late, or not inviting them to a party. Then they treat you and your child with complete disrespect and disregard.

The office manager is very rude and lacks customer service etiquette. She verbally attacks defenseless children when their parents are not around or paying attention. She has attacked my child to the point of tears and anger and a hate for going to the studio. She has displayed discrimination to myself and other parents because we have an opinion or disagreed with any of their business practices. She will yell at your child for simply turning lights on when it is dark and they cant see, or for walking in with the wrong hairstyle (before they even make it into the actual class.

The owner is a teacher and the competition coach, she's human and I get it but she's quite selfish!
She believes that yelling and belittling children is the appropriate way to teach. She will sit and chat or text during your paid practices instead of teaching and then run classes over with no consideration of others. If she is having a bad day or going through any personal things she WILL take it out on your children in class or by simply ignoring her duty as a coach because it does not suit her needs at that time. She is a single mother, I get it. I am too but my child does not interrupt my place of business with no form of guidance or discipline when needed. This will and does affect your paid dance practices. Let's not forget the dog. FORGET the fact if you are allergic, she does not care because it does not suit her desires. You will need to dance with the dog, and the child and her texting and just figure it out! My child did and thank goodness she survived all the trauma and still came out of the season with her head held high, a sinus infection and finally at peace from the Owner/teacher/comp coach and office manager trauma.

COST - Most dance studios are expensive in general, this is understandable. But beware, they upcharge ON LITERALLY EVERYTHING with no actual logic, consistency or truth behind it. They do not offer your dancer fundraisers without getting their money off the top, well they actually take most of the money. I am pretty sure that is not how these type of fundraisers work. They charge you for every single thing that is done with the company. We were up charged so bad that when questioned one of the lame lying excuses were that it was to cover the cost for an end of the year party for the girls. That ended being a byop "bring your own pool" to put in a gas station parking lot.
They charge your bill account and you are required to pay what they want you to pay and when they want the items paid and will reallocate any funds towards that. So do not try to have any control over your own account, that is not how this works here. For example, if you are budgeting for anything other than dance, just forget it, they own you! And if you fall behind for any reason, you have given them a go on hitting you with all the late fees possible! and then hold it over your head until it is paid and will treat you differently based on that alone.

If you have an opinion, state any facts of truth or disagree with them on anything, they immediately accuse you of being aggressive and inappropriate. I have no need to falsify any information as I have nothing to gain for trying to alert others to
This company's deceptive and manipulative ways.

This does not nearly cover everything that was endured this year of dancing. BUT I TRULY RECOMMEND that you do not fall for the fakeness and false advertising at Dance Housee
