Report
The parents block up the one way street and park in front of peoples houses. The center has a pretty big parking lot for parents but their too ignorant and selfish to use it causing residents on this street to park their cars far away and walk home. Owner claims shes asked parents to stop doing this but obviously doesnt enforce it enough. Been going on for years... I find it disrespectful.

My daughter loves the dance center. It continually inspires her to be the best dancer she can be. She always has fun and has learned many important lifelong skills.

The owner needs to inform her dance moms that they need to be respectful of the neighbors on this street. Since living here for two years I have seen numerous customers of yours commit hit and runs because they dont know how to Parallel park. I have almost been Tboned by one of your moms coming out of your parking lot into the alley flying! Your dance moms also wait in the middle of the street to pick up their kid. And they also dont know how to park on the street and make room for others to park. Your precious studio isnt the only thing on this block.
