Augusta Youth School of Dance 123 Davis Road, Martinez, GA 30907

"2 of my gals attend ballet, tap, jazz, & hip-hop @ AYSD & absolutely love it! My 18 yr old also danced here & loved it then too! The staff is very professional, kind, & great with the children. Pricing is fair too! Best of all, at the end of the dance season, us parents get to see the hard work paid off by a dance recital in their dance costumes that are ordered to fit your child. Highly recommend!"

"Both my daughters have been dancing at AYSD for 9 and 8 years respectively. AYSD has become a huge part of our lives. We consider the staff at AYSD our family! Molly and Debbie strive to provide a safe, fun, educational environment and experience for every student. Their amazing outreach program that teaches gymnastics in local CSRA day cares provides such a huge community impact. We are thankful to be a part of the AYSD family. With over 40 plus years experience in Dance AYSD is the best place for young children-adults to enjoy their love of dance in a safe family friendly environment. I could not ever recommend AYSD more! Thank you to Molly, Debbie and the AYSD staff for becoming our family and fostering a love for dance in our lives."

"My daughter is non verbal and attended one of the free classes they offered in her daycare. My partner and I agreed if she liked it we would pay for her to attend full time. That WILL NOT BE THE CASE. One of the teachers snatched a hoolahoop out of her hand. Then took her (my kid) back to the class room and said “she’s doing too much” then shut the door. I do not recommend this dance company. The staff is extremely rude and seems to be completely content being so."

"This dance studio and director honestly are rude and impatient. My daughter, who is two years old and nonverbal, and may possibly be on the spectrum, attended one of their free classes for gymnastics, and she was kicked out within 10 minutes. Were other children in the classroom ages ranging from 2 to 5, and a few of the other kids were on the spectrum but the rest of the children were not. I was peeking through the window of said classroom to watch my daughter to see her interact with others because she has a hard time doing this And I noticed that the directors assistant snatched a hula hoop from my child, and said, what do you think you’re doing? They didn’t know I was her parent and my child got upset and ran out of the classroom and then the Director brought her back in and not even a minute later took her to her classroom and told the teacher while I was behind her. She’s doing too much. One of the teachers at our daycare center even offered to go in there to help assist with the other children. It’s really frustrating because she has normal behavior of a two-year-old most two-year-old do things like this they see the fun colors, etc. and want to play And have fun. So with that being said, I do not recommend this place"

"October 26, 2021 I give Augusta Youth School of Dance 5 ⭐️. We started our journey at AYSD 7 years ago. In 7 years this wonderful dance school has become family to us. Both of my girls have received top notch dance education and AYSD has also provided me the opportunity to return back to dance as an adult and a teacher at AYSD. I myself have been dancing since I was 2. AYSD has provided me a home to continue to do what I love. AYSD has provided a safe happy and loving environment for my girls to learn dance technique and enrich their lives with dance. Both of my girls are what I refer to as Ms Debbie Dye dance babies they absolutely love Ms Debbie Dye. Even more so is their admiration and love for Mrs Molly Peoples. Mrs Molly plays such an important role in my girls lives. She is truly a role model to them. They love Mrs Molly as if she was their sister! My husband and I couldn’t ask for a better role model or dancer teacher for our girls than Molly. My oldest daughter wants to be just like Mrs Molly when she grows up. She wants to go to college and double major in dance and business so that some day she too can be like Molly and own a successful dance studio and instill the same dance education and values Molly has taught her in other little children. Over the years Molly has become friend and family to us! I enjoy working for Molly at the dance studio and truly appreciate her professionalism and dedication to her employees myself included. One thing my parents always taught us was to find a job that you love going to everyday a job that makes you happy and you can truly smile going into work. I can honestly say working at AYSD with Molly is that for me. We absolutely love our AYSD family and love dancing at AYSD. Thank you Molly for all you do for every single dancer and their families at AYSD! AYSD is top notch! Below are just a few of the special moments we had with Molly Debbie and all the staff at Augusta Youth School of dance !"
