Artistic Fusion Dance Academy

I’m very dissatisfied on how they treat usMy daughter was sick and had to miss two weekends straight, it would of had been nice if someone called just to check in on her, just to make us feel like she is import in ballet class but nothing no one ever called or emailed but as soon as the 24th came they were so fast to charge my credit card, they didn’t offer any make up classes so I decided to contact them but they aren’t open until 2pm so no one will email you back or call you until 6pm if that! I receive a call the next day, I spoke to the front desk lady because miss Jenn never got back to me on time and when she did the next day I asked her if my daughter could go to her last class since it was already paid for, but that we were canceling, so I never heard back and I decided to not take my daughter afraid I would get turned away and drive 30 min for nothing miss Jen got back to me like two hours after my daughters last class was over and her only response was I will go ahead and cancel her class, like she didn’t even acknowledge my question or try to keeps us as members or ask why we wanted to cancel. We were wow by all the pictures they post on social media and dance competitions because my daughter was interested in doing that but when I asked the front desk lady she sais she wasnt sure on how to get enrolled. like really?? maybe she just didnt care for my daughter to join maybe because we are latinas?! Honestly this place sucks the rooms have no windows so you are not able to see them practice, once the kids go in the room the teacher closes the door, afyer class is over kids are dismissed.I asked my daughter if she was ok with me canceling she was so excited the first time she went to her class but 4 classes later she was not into it anymore and was ok with me canceling she said her teacher was rude sometimes soo that was that I will give this place two thumps down they need better teachers and more attention to their kids it’s not always about $$$ kids have feelings !and want to feel valued!byeee

Artistic Fusion Dance Academy truly deserves five stars! The instructors are incredibly talented, fostering a creative and supportive environment. The variety of dance styles offered caters to all levels, making it an ideal place for both beginners and experienced dancers. I appreciate the welcoming environment that fosters friendships among the young dancers. The variety of dance styles ensures my daughter is well-rounded, and their end of the year recital showcases the incredible progress shes made. Its more than a dance studio; it’s a place where my daughter is also growing into a confident and expressive individual. If youre looking for a place that combines skill development with artistic expression, this studio is unparalleled.

I LOVE ARTISTIC FUSION! I love the safe environment that is created for the dancers AND the parents. I love how they have clear communication for the parents during events and completions. The teachers, staff, and owners are the most encouraging, positive, and helpful staff I’ve ever come across. They put their whole life aside for the betterment of the students to make sure they are happy mentally, physically, and emotionally. I always am seeing the kids laughing and having fun whilst still also working hard. Artistic Fusion is truly a family family! GO HERE!

Hands down best studio in Boise!!! The owner has so much knowledge and is amazing with kids and her daughter is a beautiful dancer! My kids love this studio!!!

My child has been dancing at Artistic Fusion since she could walk. She would dance in the hallway while her older sister took class until she was old enough to join the toddler classes. The training and care she has received the past 14 years cannot be beat. The entire staff and owner at Artistic Fusion all strive to teach accountability, generosity, public service, and most of all, working as a team. My daughter has formed lifetime friendships at this studio, and the skills she has gained will take her far into her adult years. We are so grateful for Artistic Fusion! Her dance studio is truly her home away from home.

We are new to Artistic Fusion and have to say we are so impressed with them!! We have tried several other dance studios in the area in the past and would recommend Artistic Fusion by far! They are professional, very clean especially during these COVID times and they have amazing dance skills and instructors. My daughter looks forward to class each week and comes home so happy and proud of herself! Not to mention her new moves! Can’t wait to continue our dance journey with this studio!!

We switched to Artistic Fusion last fall from a different studio in town. My daughter has improved so much by going here! Our last studio was so focused on choreography but Artistic Fusion is not. Instead they are teaching my daughter the basics and helping her with her turns. She comes out of class happy every time and it is so fun to watch! Thank-you for renewing her passion!

We have been with Artistic Fusion for almost 2 years. They took the time and had the patience to help my toddlers adjust to going to a class without their parents. They now both run in with excitement each week. My daughter is on the youngest competition team where they help build her confidence and her technique all while having fun and being on a team. They enjoy having Ms Jenny and Miss Kenzie so much and I’m so happy my kids have somewhere they can go to be themselves and I know they are safe!! I’m also so grateful for them fighting for these kids last year and doing everything they could to still give them a recital even if that meant renting a stage, getting all the necessary permits and doing it in the parking lot of the school.

My young child has been taking ballet class here she always has so much fun and just adores her teacher Miss Jen. Every week she looks forward to her class and wants to go every day if she could! I had her a different studio before here and she would cry during the entire class but not here, she is always excited and happy about class. The teacher is encouraging and patient with the kids and has really helped my child grow. The studio has also done an amazing job keeping everything clean and everyone healthy during COVID.

This is our daughters home away from home. She started dancing here when she was 3 years old and is now almost 16 and plans to graduate from here and start a career in dance. Jen, Lizzie and the amazing faculty and staff love their dancers so fiercely that it is an honor to call them a second family. We watched in awe as they responded to the ever changing demands of keeping a studio and competition company running during a pandemic. Our kids needed dance and they made sure they got it in the most safe and effective way. If you are looking for a fabulous and loving dance studio for your dancer, Artistic Fusion is the place!

The best decision we made for our daughter was to move her to Artistic Fusion to continue her dance training. She is in her 2nd season with AF and she is not only receiving the best technical training, but she is getting all the support and love she needs to pursue her passion. Everyone there from the owner, teachers, staff, parents, and dancers are all very friendly and kind and we are so grateful our daughter has so many wonderful people helping her pursue her dreams. My daughter loves AF and has made the best of friends to last a lifetime. By far the BEST studio in Colorado.

I had the privilege to see all the beautiful kids from this dance academy perform at our Christmas event last night. It was truly a lovely performance! Let me tell you….. these kids are blessed and extremely talented! The children were well mannered and very professional. You can tell they work hard and they have the passion to dance.Thank you Jen and to all the parents who came and supported the 7-11 FOA Christmas annual party. I have the upmost respect and love for all of you! 🥰😎👊

My daughters both dance at Artistic Fusion. They are both on competition teams. My only regret is that I didnt move my daughters here sooner from their previous studio! There are never any hidden costs, we are not nickled and dimed, my daughters love their teammates and teachers, and the parents are supportive and communicative. The teachers make decisions about makeup, hair, tights, shoes, etc. and communicate to dancers and parents with plenty of time to obtain the items. Best of all, I am not up all hours adding crystals to costumes!

We moved from another studio last season and are thrilled we took this leap. Our dancer is gaining so much by being part of a team that is supportive, energetic and always working hard to be the best. The staff and teachers have the students best interest at heart. The creativity and distinguished choreographers are just one of many reasons to be a part of AF!

We moved here from CA and have been with the dance studio 4 seasons now. We are so grateful we landed in such a great community. Not only have our girls received great instruction and dance opportunities over the past 4 seasons, we have all met and made some amazing friends. The teachers uniquely connect with all three of my girls on and off the dance floor and TRULY care about them. I love that they encourage and promote community outreach and fully support the ideas and projects our parent/dancer non-profit organization puts before them. I love watching them perform at a highly competitive level as well as watching our girls improve and grow year after year.

Moving to Artistic Fusion has been my best decision yet. I have grown so much not only as a dancer but as a human as well. We learn so much everyday and I’m always coming home with a huge smile on my face. When I first came the whole team was so welcoming and kind. All the teachers help you get to where you want to be and always communicate with you. There is never a dull moment at this studio. We have fun and we work so hard! I will always love this studio and it will always have a special place in my heart.

We joined Artistic Fusion this year. It was the perfect fit for my daughter that wanted to try company. Part time company was just right for our family. The coaches and staff have been great, we truly feel we are apart of a team. I can already see improvement in my daughters dancing !

My child has dance at many dance studios from New Mexico to Texas and now here in Colorado. My child loves this dance studio. She’s always so happy when she leaves dance. There’s never a fight to get her to go to dance and believe me when we lived in other places sometimes it was like pulling teeth to get her to go cause she wasn’t happy dancing. The staff is always happy to help if I have a problem. My child loves all her dance teachers and the friends shes made at dance.

My daughter is in her third season on the competition dance team at Artistic Fusion. We chose Artistic Fusion for competitive dance because it offered world-class choreographers flying in from Los Angeles and New York regularly, over 7 hours of ballet class per week, six large dance studios to provide ample scheduling, small classes to train in, over 70 dancers on the comp team for my daughter to look up to and learn from, beautiful, artistic competitive dances with an incredible winning record from the most challenging dance competitions we respect, and fantastic placements of alumni into top tier college dance programs. However, the biggest factor for us choosing Artistic Fusion, was the discipline and focus of the dancers, as well as the warm and inviting atmosphere the dancers created for my daughter, imperative for a place she spends over 20 hours a week at. We made the right decision.

This dance studio has created and amazing environment for me to grow and meet life long friends. Many opportunities are offered because of how selfless the owner is. She brings in choreographers that we suggest and gets everything ready for us for competition. The environment is so positive and everyone gets along. I love every person on my team and wouldn’t trade them for anyone else. Also, the staff keeps everything so organized and gives us amazing training. This is the best studio in Colorado.

My daughter started dance here shortly after she turned 2. We’ve been here for the last 2 years and she has really come to love dancing and looks forward to class each week. The staff and instructors have always been very kind, great with the kids, and professional. I’ve found everything from costumes to routines to be age appropriate.

My daughter is a senior and has been dancing at AFDA for only 2 years but those 2 years have been life changing. She came to the studio depleted of confidence and feeling like dance might not be for her. She loved it and had a passion for it but with negative past experiences she was ready to walk away. Artistic Fusion changed all of that. She was welcomed by the students and the staff with open arms, compassion, acceptance, positivity and along side that has been pushed and had had so much technical and artistic growth to be the dancer she has always wanted to be. She comes home excited, happy and smiling and loves dance more than ever, she has regained her passion and most importantly her confidence and with the help from Jen, Lizzie and all of the amazing staff she is hoping to pursue dance in college. This mama can’t thank AFDA enough for what you have done for my dancer ❤️

My 8 yr old daughter dances rec and it’s been an amazing experience the teachers really care and put effort in helping the students progress as a result my daughters confidence has boosted tremendously since the beginning of the year. All of the office staff are very friendly and kind with myself and my daughter. Anytime I have a question they are answered efficiently or when I have called I have always received a call back with answers. The community atmosphere will keep us coming back because there is no feeling of favoritism rec vs company we feel very welcomed and a part of the studio even as a rec dancer.

We have been very happy with Artistic Fusion!! My daughter has been a student here since she was 3. Now, 7 years later, she is competing and winning. I’m so proud of her growth and thankful for the studio that both pushes her to improve and supports her like family.

We absolutely love AFDA all the staff are amazing and truly have a passion for what they do. All the students are so nice and welcoming. Coming to a new studio my daughter was nervous but everyone was so kind. This is such an amazing place where they challenge each child and push them to do their best.

We love AFDA! My oldest daughter is 14 and has been dancing at the studio since she was three. I also have two younger daughters who dance there. Jen and all the staff are amazing! This studio not only provides dance instruction, it is a family!

My daughter has been attending classes at Artistic Fusion since she was two years old and we couldnt have asked for a better experience. The staff is wonderful, the teachers are fantastic and my daughter not only looks forward to attending her classes every week but cant wait to tell me about it and show me what she has learned after each and every class. I cant imagine having this experience anywhere else.

We had been looking for a dance class for a while and finally found one.My 7 year old is always happy and excited for Mondays she loves her hip hop dance class with Miss. Emily.Staff is always very friendly and helpful Ilove that theres and app that keeps us parents updated.

Moving to this studio was the best decision I could have ever made for my training and well being. Artistic Fusion not only gives you the best technical training but they teach you how to be a well rounded person from a very young age. I have met friends that I will keep my whole life and learned my most valuable lessons from this place. Not to mention the incredible opportunities the owner Jen provides for us. I highly recommend Artistic Fusion to anyone looking to experiment and dive deeper into dance no matter their level.

I am in the middle of my 3rd season as a member of the Artistic Fusion company and I have loved every minute! The people that I have met there have always been so supportive. Jenny Jarnot and the rest of the staff truly care about the growth and happiness of all of their students! Spending a lot of time with my teammates has really created such a family environment, not to mention all of the incredible opportunities that Jenny is always creating from guest choreographers, to CLI classes, to an amazing summer intensive! I’m so glad that I have become a part of the Artistic Fusion family!!

Our two daughters dance recreationally at AFDA. While it would have been easy to join another studio (or even the local recreation center) for our dancing “fun”, we still wanted to give our girls the opportunity to receive the best dance instruction in the state. Our girls’ instructors are the same instructors as those at the competitive level...we’re not paying to be pawned off on one of the high school dance students. All of our girls’ teachers have been so kind and helpful, and they’ve supported our girls in their development of confidence both on and off the stage. We look forward to the classes each week! Additionally, the front desk staff and store staff have been extremely helpful with managing our monthly tuition, finding classes that accommodate our busy schedule, and helping size our girls for all their dancing necessities.Lastly, we attend many of the local dance competitions just to watch, and AFDA’s choreography, costumes, poise, and teamwork overwhelmingly surpass that of the competing studios. As an observer, there’s no doubt that AFDA holds their dancers to a MUCH higher standard.

We experienced extreme bullying at Artistic Fusion and if you ask for help from the owner, it only gets worse. The owner, office staff, teachers, parents and dancers bullied my child to no end. Then, 5 months after we moved on, the owner actually sent three of her dancers to my childs new studio for the summer and told them to be nasty to my 10 year old, kicking her belongings, tearing her dance bag, name calling, etc. In addition, I was charged 350.00 for a month of tuition after we left. It was never returned, even after I received a voicemail from Callie saying it would be. There are so many dance studios around, that based on my experiences and on the similar experiences of many other families I know, I recommend taking your children elsewhere.

My daughter has been dancing at their rec level for 2 seasons now. She seems to like it a lot. The communication isnt the best at times. I wish they would put more information out in how to expand and grow the dancers to become part of the more competitive teams.

My 7 yr old daughter loves Artistic Fusion. She takes ballet, tap and jazz and has learned so much in just her first year in the recreation program. The training is exceptional, teachers are amazing, atmosphere is fun and the facilities are top notch.

I hesitated to review this studio but after receiving a second “happy birthday” email for my daughter not on her birthday. I am upset.Jen and Callie are so rude and never answer emails. The communication of this studio is non existent.My daughter came home and told me that her teachers yelled at her and stepped on her feet when she messed up. She was nine at the time. To me that is bullying. I asked her if she wanted to stay and she said “no” I called the studio and explained why she wanted to leave. I was assured that her teachers would call and speak with her. They never did. That is when we left. This studio might turn out great dancers but you need to ask yourself at what cost? Because they aren’t kind and they don’t care about your child they just care about getting your money.

This is a very nice dance academy it’s very nice the teachers are really nice I recommend this place to anyone

We have been here since my daughter was 2 and we have loved every minute of it! She has grown so much in her dancing skills and begs to come every day, she absolutely loves the camaraderie between her and her team.

AFDA provides quality training where each individual dancer is valued and supported in their journey. The leaders and mentors actively seek and provide current dance information and cultivate a professional, healthy team environment where dancers can thrive!

This studio is great. My child loves and is always looking forward to going every week. The staff is very friendly and supportive. My child has learned a lot.

I really enjoy this place and so does my daughter whom is a dance student. They have wonderful, sweet, and patient dance teachers. My three year old daughter has learned so much and she loves it!!!

The best of the best! Not only are the instructors amazing, the front desk staff are so helpful to us moms. Best dance studio in Colorado, hands down

After a long search for hip classes for my son, who’s 6, we found Artistic Fusion! Miss Emily is awesome and he loves going to class!

My daughter loves her dance teacher and has so much fun dancing there! I’m so glad they had their recital last year, showed commitment!

The studio is so much more than dance it is a family as well. The kids learn awesome techniques along with team work....

A business really speaks for itself when they threaten you with legal action for posting a negative review. Not to mention trying to discredit reviewers by questioning if they are clients or not...

Wonderful place my girls loving dancing there and have been for a Long time couldn’t ask for a better place to spend time watching them learn and grow into beautiful dancers

Professional and fun!

My daughter loves this place...

Amazing studio!
