I went to this studio for 1 year. What I went through here hurt my self confidence. My teacher was not patient with me even though I had just started. She teased me and openly bullied many other people in this studio. I was so anxious going here everyday and constantly feared that she would start yelling at us again. We were being bullied by adults. They were bullies that made me doubt myself. They would tease me and pick favorites in class. I know ballet teachers need be strict, but most days it felt they were taking their anger out on us. I loved performing but the way some of the teachers treated us wrecked my mental health. Once you sign a contract for the company you cannot stop payments for a whole year and that is the only reason I stayed for a year. Please be careful sending you children here, my experience at this ballet was like so many others at the studio. It made me stop being happy while I was dancing

My daughter loves her dance teacher at chico creek dance center. She does ballet and has learned so much in their program. She is five years old and just a beginner, she is very shy so it has been so helpful to have a dance teacher like Ms. Hana. I highly recommend trying their program if you have little ones interested in dance. They provide a wide variety of different classes.

The young "girl" who teaches the tumbling class is very rude and unprofessional. This place is a joke

My 4 year old daughter just did her second ballet class today and she absolutely loves it. The teacher is great with the kids. She is very patient with the little ones and she makes the class so much fun for them.

I spent well over a decade dancing here starting at the age of 2. I wish I was exaggerating when I say my therapist has heard plenty about the ballet program. Please be careful. Full Force however seems like it had incredibly successful and kind instructors and one ballet instructor I remember in particular for her kindness was a lady named Melinda though I don’t know if she still works there.

Be careful here. Almost the entirety of the ballet department is toxic as hell. I moved to Chico from a beautiful company with 9 years prior experience. I went to this company and left after 2 years. It was so toxic. My best friend who I met through the company had been there since she was 2. She had 13 years of her life experienced there. She developed something similar to Stockholm Syndrome because of them. My own experience was filled with physical and mental abuse. I developed body dysmorphia because the instructors told me I was too fat. They sent home a dietary plan once so I would loose the weight. I have hormonal imbalances that cause those weight issues and it wasn't my habits that caused them. I was 13 when they did that to me. The only good experience I had with the company was the tap, flamenco, jazz and contemporary departments. I heard fantastic things about Full Force. Its only the ballet department you have to watch for.
