LOVE Applause! My daughters have been taking from Molly for years now and we practically consider her family. The studio is located in the same building that I used to take dance in as a wee child. Molly does most of the teaching herself but she does have a few other fabulous teachers that pick up some classes as well. Molly and the other teachers want the girls not just to learn steps, but how to perform on stage and really enjoy it as they do. Applause also has a competitive dance team that travels to several competitions in the spring. The annual Applause recital is usually at the end of May. I have many positive things to say about Applause which I haven’t even mentioned, but the only negative is the studio could use some updating. But in the grand scheme of things, who cares about what the place looks like?! My kids enjoy every minute of the time we spend there!
