βFirst time coming in and needed some work pants. I told Taylor what I was looking for and she got me exactly what I needed. I went in the store, tried 3 different pants on and checked out in under 10 minutes. Taylor has exceptional customer service.β
βLove that I'm able to get myself all my favorite band shirts, get gifts for my friends, and enjoy all the good energy! Especially when it comes to Kat she is fantastic and always helps me out!β
βwent to use the Amazon return service inside Kohl's and the Kohl's staff was so helpful and really courteous! she gave us 20% coupon! they have Sephora inside.β
βTL;DR:
Best dance store experience weβve ever had. Incredibly kind, attentive, inclusive, beautifully curated, and 1000x better than buying online. This is our forever dance store.
Full review:
This was our second visit to The Dance Bag in Modesto, and I will never buy dance supplies online again. My daughter is in her second year of dancing, and every single time weβve come in, weβve felt genuinely welcomed and personally helped. No appointment, no rushing, no pressure. They take the time to properly fit her, explain things, and connect with her in a way that makes her feel comfortable and confident. They are truly exceptional with children, even very young ones.
The store itself is clean, beautifully organized, and thoughtfully laid out. They carry high-quality, trusted dance brands like Bloch and Capezio, and other styles and I was impressed with the variety of both narrow and wide foot shapes. I also just love the storeβs overall vibe. Their gifts, trinkets, and accessories donβt feel like random add-ons or filler like most other stores but every item feels intentionally chosen and perfectly matched to the storeβs clientele. Itβs joyful, cohesive, and honestly just delightful to browse.
One thing that really matters to me is inclusivity as we are a mixed race family and to be frankly honest, ballet spaces in particular have not always felt welcoming or inclusive for me growing up in the dance world. But this store absolutely feels like a safe space for all. The ballerina dolls, ornaments, and stuffed animals reflect a range of skin tones and wasnβt just one narrow image of what a dancer looks like. That representation is noticed, felt, and deeply appreciated.
The Dance Bag is kind, inclusive, professional, and clearly run with heart. Iβll be coming here for as long as my daughter dances and we are in the area.β

βI had a wonderful experience at this store thanks to Petra, Maria, and the other team member. They were all incredibly kind, polite, and helpful. I also want to commend them on maintaining the store so clean and organizedβit truly reflects their hard work and dedication.
That said, I do have some concerns for their safety given the visible homelessness in the surrounding area. As a suggestion, having additional male staff members or enhanced security measures could help ensure a safer environment for these hardworking employees.
Overall, the team here is fantastic, and I greatly appreciate the service they provide.
Graciasβ
βVery nice woman she is always nice I'm Sad she left Tracy, but I will still take the Drive she is always very welcoming and willing to help you find what your looking for!β
βGeorge and I love the clothes here and the pricing canβt be beat! Mary at the register deserves a raise. Sheβs the nicest young lady. The only downfall is the parking.

βRoss has always been a favorite place for me to shop for designer brands at a great discount. I wouldn't buy my perfume anywhere else. Always have a wide variety of shoes in every size. I could go on and on about section of this store. Never out of stock on the items I am looking for
There is something for everyone at Ross. Mention the Ross store to me and it makes me smile.β
βSuper great experience. Got help right away when I wasnt able to find something I was looking for. Staff is really friendly and knowledgeable and gave us recommendations for boot care. Will definitely be coming back here. Even wore the boots out after purchasing.β
βGreat customer service—thank you, Laura and Sherry! Outstanding job today. Your hard work, professionalism, and support are truly appreciated. Keep up the excellent work!β
βThe salesperson Daniel was really nice and very helpful. He grabbed mine and my girlfriendβs shoe sizes and color that we wanted. We felt terrible about when he was tying our shoes to get a perfect fit. Then at the last minute, we decided on a different color. I felt like a jerk doing that to him, but Iβm happy to say he did everything we asked for. He had a great attitude and he was really fast.β

βLove this store! It always has what I am looking for and more! Tristina is an amazing cashier who knows how to treat a customer! She is very helpful and welcoming! Will be back soon! Thank you for being amazing!β
βI saw a lot of cool toys I wanted to buy. The shoes, cloths, and shirts are at a fair price. You can also find things for your house like pillows, mats, rugs and decorative flowers. I hope you enjoy your visit.β

βWe shopped at all the stores in Modesto and Fresno. Martha was by far the most helpful, patient, knowledgeable, and accommodating to our needs. She was sweet and made my daughter feel comfortable. She has a huge selection of dresses, tiaras, and the best petticoats. We really appreciate your professional service and expertise. Thank you for helping us find my daughters dream dress!!β
βMarcos was very nice at helping me around the store, trying to navigate haha, and Jose was very helpful at checkout, along with Araceli was very helpful in the clearance area. Thank all of you guys!β
βHad never been to this store before. I went in looking for Baggy jeans and the staff is amazing. They work together to find what you are looking for as well as give you suggestions on other options to try on. They all have such a warm, welcoming positive vibe. Itβs nice to see young ladies put ? % into there job. Manager is luck to have such great employees.β

βI love this boutique so cute! The staff is beyond perfection! The price is reasonable on most items. If you're ever in down town Turlock you should check it out .β
βI took both of my daughters in to their favorite store and immediately we were Greeted with a hello, and if we need help to just let the staff know, I want to personally Thank all three of the gentleman who helped us we were in the store for approximately about an hour lol My girls’s left happy and with the gear they wanted so shout out to you guys thank you again for all your help oh, and one last thing, the music choice on the playlist was it🤌🏻β
βHavenβt been here in years but I ordered some lava lamps and was packaged very good. Arrived on time and was packaged carefully with bubble wrap. With that said ,
I do agree with others that the βadult toy/stuff section has to go. Iβm not sure if it brings in βhuge revenueβ or, βpays their rent billβ with that section, but highly doubt people go to an actual βmallβ to buy βactual adult toysβ lol. Also, with that said.
I took my teenage kid here and warned about βother stuffβ thatβs inside , (since I wasnβt sure where the βother stuffβ was) and sure enough, I saw a wall full of them so we decided to walk back out.
The adult stuff should be held in a back corner, behind a βglittery shiny reflective bannerβ to walk through so people can βsee a sign that says adults only and walk thru a nice entranceβ β¦. Ya know, kinda like they did back at the βvideo storesββ¦. You knowβ¦ youβ¦. Knowβ¦. Ownerβ
βStylish boutique with trendy pieces and great customer service. The staff makes shopping enjoyable and helps put together outfits effortlessly. A great place to find something unique.β
βI have been shopping at these stores for 20 years now. From Sacramento to Roseville and now Modesto! Let me tell you, I have found some real gems! I love these stores and they are by far my favorite. I don't think I have ever left empty handed. Very clean and organized. Not to mention, that their cause is near and dear to my heart. And just as a side note... After having read some of these reviews, I don't know why anyone would go to a Thrift store looking to be put on a pedestal by the employees just for the color of their skin! C'mon, just knock the chip off your shoulder and just shop. sorry for the rant.β

βAt times, you find some great deals!Other times, it can be junk! I gave it 4 stars, because when you do find great finds, the price is right! It isn't always great, but if you are on a strict budget & need to shop for cheap clothes, home goods, or maybe even a suitcase, this is a very reasonable place to shop!β
βThreads staff is welcoming and with the larger store, I usually always find something. Was not expecting to buy a coat and found one that I love! Angel is an angel!β
