Over the last few years Andy at Gold IT Services has sorted out my new laptop when the manufacturers refused. Sorted my computer when I missed a letter out of a web address and ended up with all sorts of gremlins taking it over. So when my old computer showed signs of giving up I asked him to build me another one. I am not a gamer but need good spec for my photography. Within a week I had a new computer and, while still getting used to the new Windows 11 operating system, I am very happy with it. He is a my go to man for computers. More...

Thank you ever so much, glad I could help, enjoy your gaming :)

Excellent classical ballet training. The Marks' focus on individual and all dancers as a whole in order to produce the fantastic productions the audiences are able to enjoy time and again. The students are taught to work as a team and to check the ego at the door. Their training, their shows, are consistent, pure and simple. The Marks' excellent training also shows in the prestigious summer intensives their students are accepted into each year. There is a reason why students drive in from as far away as Austin, Waco, Lampasas, Marble Falls, etc--their reputation as ballet instructors is beyond reproach! More...

This studio provides incredible classical ballet training. Mr. and Mrs. Marks take the time to explain methods and teach correct technique. Their passion for the art is obvious. The studio yields two very high quality productions each year (and don’t interfere with any class instruction). Both girls and boys are well served by this training (and adults such as myself!). Having come from a studio in another city, my daughter was a bit lower in her training than others here, and she grew enormously in her skill in just a few months through the Marks’ instruction.

Reviews of this place have been all over the place. It seems there are very few from actual parents of dancers. Let me tell you what it's like. If you have a favored dancer then things are peachy keen. Most favored dancers are of a certain flavor. The directors forget completely that you are the paying customer. Rules are not applied the same to everyone. The instruction is pretty good though which is why I give it two star instead of one. If you can get past the BS then good for you. More...

I’ve really enjoyed my time at this studio. During the time I’ve danced at this studio, I’ve formed so many close friendships with the dancers. In this environment, dancers can feel accepted and loved by everyone around them, and they can feel motivated to express this through their dancing. The instructors here are very kind, and they are quick to help or answer the students questions or concerns. I’ve learned so much here, and I hope to learn much more before I graduate next year.

Mr. and Mrs. Marks run a very professional classical ballet dance study. They teach the the Royal Academy of Dance ballet methodology which is why we sought them out. As such, they are very demanding and will expect the dancers to put the work in, especially when show season comes around (Nutcracker, Spring Ballet). My only complaint is they have, at times, chosen to not clamp down on misbehavior and bullying by some students. In one recent case, a dancer bullied (physically and verbally) another dancer who had just been elevated to a higher-level class to the point the newly-promoted dancer chose to leave the studio - unfortunate because the newly-promoted dancer had promise. I would have probably given a 5-star review, but this incident, along with a couple others lowered their score. More...

Many thanks for the review, much appreciated.

Every little girl wants to be a ballerina, and recent media attention on beautiful dancers made my girl want this so badly she couldn't think of anything else. Sadly though, at this studio you will receive too many reminders that payment is due 10+ days ahead of the deadline, but when arriving to pay, finding a person at the desk is difficult - and if she's there - she will be very pre-occupied on the phone or with others. It's surprising to have a business in 2018 that hasn't figured out online payments or other methods for the convenience of the customer. The instructors are defensive from the first discussions of placement and enrollment, making your presence feel like more of a burden than anything. After enrolling, you will catch glimpses of the instructors - but they avoid interaction with parents at all costs. It is virtually impossible to seek out a conversation - leaving a voicemail, and email, or a friendly hello at check-in will not provide a meaningful interaction between the paying customer and the instructors of the school. While you wait for your child have class, you will be welcomed to a waiting room with the front desk employee and directors children running like savages, screaming, and wrestling in the floor. If you bring a snack for your child, these children will likely hint or even ask if they can have it (oddly uncomfortable). The area's noise level is insane and the waiting rooms are kept below freezing - not so inviting. In preparation for the great Nutcracker - we mums of younger children were notified just this week that we MUST stay with our kids backstage at all shows and rehearsals (what will I do with my other kids...and when can I watch?) - BUT in attempt to do as asked we were met by some very persnickety mean 'dance moms' that not-so-kindly explained that they are "wing moms" (I don't know what this means), and I"m "just a backstage mom" so "stay over hear and don't be here" - a very tacky 'putting me in my place' after being required to be there. There is a call for volunteers, but clearly based on interactions, the elite 'wing moms' don't want others to volunteer. There was a lot of yelling and unnecessary bossy direction from these same "wing" moms to a lot of young, excited ballerinas who just want to dance. I have so many questions that nobody except a couple of friendly older girls mom's in the waiting room can answer. Instead of feeling voluntary, I'm now left feeling worried to the point of staying for supervision and protection of my child in what feels like a fairly cruel and scary environment. This certainly isn't what I envisioned building as my Childs memory of "dancing as a child". The directors demonstrate little to no respect for the parents who sacrifice for their children to participate. Rehearsal schedules are emailed at inconsistent pre-warning times, the schedules posted in the studio are weeks behind, and when you do arrive - the scheduled rehearsals will be up to an hour behind in start and stop times. You will LITERALLY lose your entire weekend day to the insanity and disorganization and be made to feel like a second class citizen by the helpers there. These interactions along with the very few interactions from the directors/owners indicate a pompous, elitist group who selfishly use the tuition and time of others to further their agenda for a special few in their school. It seems like their may be some good knowledge of dancing in the studio, but business sense, interest in child development, and customer service are not a demonstrated skill here.There is clearly controversy that spills into the reviews of this studio, but from my vantage point as a newly arriving customer this fall - this place will suck you for every penny, treat you like a delinquent bill-payer, and offer no feedback or friendly interaction to make it feel like an investmentm, and unless chosen as a favorite - your child will receive little interaction or interest from teachers that they unknowingly adore.

My children personally have never attended this studio, but I have attended many of the performances and have been very pleased. My daughter is a dancer for another studio and I have to say I am appalled by some of these reviews. Before these reviews were written did anyone try to resolve the issue first because according to the owners response it doesn't seem like they were made aware of any issue. And secondly do your children still attend this studio, because if I felt even a fraction of how some of these parents do, I would have my kid pulled out immediately. In the end, your kids happiness is what matters most and they feed off your energy and attitude. I hope things get resolved and for myself personally I am looking forward to the Nutcracker this year!

In other reviews , the Marks are touted as having accomplishing much in Killeen in such a short time. This is simply untrue. The Marks were handed a studio with a large number of talented students already in existence. They have benefited from the fruits of someone else’s labor. They are unprofessional and unethical in their behaviors. Our family has been blessed to find quality ballet instruction elsewhere as this is not a place I would ever send my child. More...

I am a parent of a student at this Studio. Mr. and Mrs. Marks run a wonderful Ballet Studio, bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to the task of teaching classical Russian Ballet to young ladies and gentlemen. They work hard with all of their students to try and improve their style, endurance, dedication, and knowledge of classical Ballet. I highly recommend Texas Metropolitan Ballet to anyone who desires professional instruction of their children in Ballet, for their studio provides instruction the likes of which you would expect to see in a major metropolitan area. Both the Christmas Season performances of "The Nutcracker" and the Spring Showcases featuring Classic Ballet selections, are wonderful, and well worth taking the time to witness. Many of these young ladies and gentlemen have the talent and drive to dance professionally someday. More...

We went to several studios, including one affiliated with a professional company, before coming to TMB. My daughter had a passion for ballet, but also extreme anxiety. This combination made it difficult to find a place with instructors equipped to deal with a more challenging student. She has absolutely thrived under the Marks’ direction. Although they teach a very challenging curriculum, their care for each individual student is evident in everything they do. This is not a competition studio. They are focused exclusively on classical ballet. Instead of recitals, students have the opportunity to perform in the Nutcracker in the fall and a spring production in the spring. Last year was Sleeping Beauty. I have never had a negative interaction with any of the families or students and have found it to be a very supportive and inclusive environment. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a dance studio in the central Texas area. More...

I went to see the ballet performance of Sleeping Beauty by the Texas Metrpolitan Ballet School and company this last Saturday WOW! We were blown away by the quality of training these young people expressed on stage. Believe me when I say I’ve seen and performed in many ballets. It was very professionally done. The costumes were beautiful and looked like what you would see at a professional ballet. Loved the other 2 performances too. My favorite part was when they had a special performance in the ballet by several special needs children. They did it in such a caring and professional way the kids were just beaming. their dance got the loudest applause. Their performance brought tears to my eyes. If I had a granddaughter living here or even a grandson I would want them to go get the foundations in ballet at this school. It can help a child grow in so many more aspects of life besides dance. Thank you for inviting me Randall Marks. You and your lovely wife are doing great things❤️ More...

I've attended 2 performances put on by TMB. I thoroughly enjoyed both and am looking forward to seeing Nutcracker this winter. I was disappointed however, to see a review on this sight targeting an individual CHILD. This leaves me concerned that the studio is having to deal with "dance mom's" who appear to be inappropriately ranking the skills of dancers that are not their own. I hope the directors take care of this problem before this parent undermines the program. All of the dancers at the performances did an amazing job and should all be praised and commended. If you have nothing nice to say about an individual child then say nothing at all. This is completely inappropriate. More...

I have attended The Nutcracker for the last several years and while truly impressed by the choreography and the hard work of the dancers, there was one stand out this year! Unfortunately her name was not listed in the program, but the young lady who played Carobose, stood out above all. Her facial expressions and work with all the other dancers stood out above all others. I believe she also played the Ballet Tango lead and that was executed beautifully. Also, the beautiful dances after the performance showcased the talent and choreography rivaled that of a professional company. Keep up the great work! More...

I have been following Texas Metropolitan Ballet from their inception and have attended their performances from the beginning. I have known the Marks (the owners of the studio) for many years and have been able to personally watch them expand the girls' abilities year after year. It is amazing the progress these girls have made under the instruction of the Marks in just two years. Any one who has actually been to these performances would say the same. Randall and Jeanne Marie are gifted and able teachers. This being said, I am surprised by what I find in some of the reviews on this site. It has been said in a previous review that the lead roles should go to the best dancers. I would say that is exactly what has been done. It is clear from just watching the performances that the girls have been rewarded for their hard work in the casting of the roles. I have never been given the impression that this is not the case. I would like to single out one dancer in particular: the delightful young lady who played the role Carobose in the spring performance of Sleeping Beauty. Her rendition of this role was inspired. She was a joy to watch. Her wonderful expressiveness, not only through her motions but specifically her facial expressions, was lively and entertaining. I have seen this young lady grow over the last two years in skill and execution. Her point is lovely and her extensions are well executed. She brings life and energy to every performance, beyond what I have seen from many young ladies her age. I am confused by the comment in a previous review that the shows have gone from sold out to having many empty seats. That is untrue from my experience. I highly recommend this studio to anyone who wishes to put their children in ballet. You will be exceedingly pleased at the results. I also recommend the performances to anyone who would like to see some of the finest ballet being performed by up and coming young dancers in central Texas. More...
