My daughters are 9, 6 and 2. I'd like to enroll them in gym/dance classes but it becomes so expensive when you have to pay for three. Do you know of any gyms/dance schools in NW Phoenix which are either very reasonable or have a great sibling discount? We've tried the city rec classes but haven't been that thrilled with them. How much would you be willing to pay for recreational activities?
Phoenix Gymnasticas and Dance is great. We've been going for years. But it's not cheap. It's $155 for 2 kids for 6 weeks. That comes out to about $13 a class. An addl discount for 3rd child, but it's not on the website. I haven't seen a child that doesn't like it there.

Hi H.,
Spisak Dance Academy is very reasonably priced as far as dance classes are concerned. It is 50 the first class per child and 35 for each additional class. They offer ballet, tap, jazz, acro, hiphop, and they also have a mom & me class for your 2 year old before she is old enough for a combination class (3-5). They also offer pilates, jazz, tap, & ballet for adults as well(at discounted rates if your children are students). They have been teaching dance for 50 years & the teachers are all Dance Master Certifited. Website: www.spisakdanceacademy.com Phone: ###-###-####. They are located just south of 51st Ave & Bell. Good luck... I know it can get expensive with 3 girls, but they are VERY reasonably priced and extremely talented! (Which is very hard to find both!)
I know that Oasis Gymnastics and Sports Center offers a sibling discount. They have recreational classes, competitive and dance. They are at Bell Rd & 87th Ave (south of Bell). They also have coupons that come in the mail for new enrollees.
Be careful where you go because not all studios know what they are doing. If your girls are just doing dance for fun then my advice would be to remember the saying "you get what you pay for".
IF your girls are serious about dance I recommend Catalyst Arts Academy. They are FANTASTIC and the teachers are former professional dancers. They know what they are doing and they teach proper technique from the beginning. Their beginning level classes are less than $50 a month. Since I only have one dancer, I don't know about a sibling discount. They are located at 40th street and Bell Rd.
