My family has been a part of Inspire for 6 years and would never go anywhere else for the arts! Thank you, Inspire for all you do!read more

Our daughter has attended Inspire for 4 years now and each year it gets better! I cannot say enough about the Vocal... Company performance last weekend, Stronger Together! It was inspiring, uplifting, encouraging and amazing. The talent was phenomenal! The teachers at Inspire to just teach singing or dancing, they teach life!read more

My girls love coming to Inspire! The Hip Hop Dance class has really helped my oldest come out of her comfort zone and... meet new people! My youngest is in the musical theatre class and when asked how she likes it she replies, “its what I’ve dreamed of doing!” (She’s 7 yrs old ?)read more

This is a great studio that does a great job with the girls.My daughter loves it there and they do a good job teaching... dance and theatre or at least I think they do. I’m probably not the best one to judge that but what I can see is that my daughter loves it and is doing better here than she did at another studio.read more

Inspire is the BEST!!! This is our first year homeschooling and it’s been challenging finding places where our kids can... go for extra curricular activities. I’m so glad we found Inspire! They are doing their best to help kids feel a sense of normalcy during this crazy time. Their teachers are top notch and truly care about all of their students. We can’t wait to sign up for more classes!read more

My girls have been taking classes that inspire for over three years and they always love the time that they spend with... their teachers and their other classmates. They are very excited to go to their classes each week and even more excited for the recitals and performances at the end of each session. The experience they get is well worth the small amount of money invested.read more

Inspire Entertainment is a great company that has many different classes to choose from. Their teachers help build... kids up and give them the confidence, encouragement and self esteem that all kids need. This is a place where you can do vocal classes, music, dance, acting and more. My kids have made great friends here. I love that they have high morals and have modest costumes as well. I would highly recommend this to any parent looking for something amazing for their child to be involved in. ??read more

I wouldn't recommend going here if your child is a first timer for the musical theater. I enrolled my son to try out... theater expecting him to be taught theater, but the staff and instructors were more focused on the show being right and perfect than actually teaching the kids that were new. I received several emails telling me my son wasn't ready for the show and even was told he'd be replaced if he didn't get his lines. Which is fair if he wasn't working hard...but he showed up to every practice- and we practiced every day. I was very disappointed in the end result. He nailed his lines in both shows, even when the mics weren't working and they had a ton of technical issues. They pushed for perfection from an inexperienced kid, and then the show, while cute, suffered many imperfections on performance day (including main characters forgetting lines and cues.) Kids are supposed to have fun and learn and yeah work hard. As a parent, you want to encourage your child to try new things and work hard even when it's not easy. So I never passed my discouragement on to him, And I think in the end it was an okay experience for him. But if you work with children should actually like them and like them enough to figure out what their fears are (young children getting on stage and performing for the first time!) and help them come up with strategies to overcome them. I wasn't there at practice, I couldn't be, so maybe they did? I am judging by the evidence that I saw through emails and conversations with the directors. They had one agenda and that was a "perfect" show. Not the attitude that I want my children to be influenced by.read more

We LOVE Inspire. My daughter has grown so much since starting here. This fall she starts Preschool and a couple other... classes. There are so many options, and the staff are all great! We love the family atmosphere, and appreciate the wholesome perspective. Can't wait for many years to come!read more

We can't say enough good things about Inspire Entertainment! Our daughter has been dancing for nearly 6 years, this is... our first year at Inspire. She took a few dance camps over the summer and we were amazed at her rapid progress. The instructors are loving and talented and know just how to push the kids to be their best self! She has blossomed not only in her technique but as well in her self confidence and loves coming to dance! This is by far the best studio we've been a part of!read more
