I loooove this place definitely a place to try some classes in amazing teachers and students and a kind and good environment
My daughter has had a great experience at Dance Connection over the last 2 years! There are a good variety of classes & many opportunities for additional training, such as dance conventions or teams. The teachers (Cindy, Brooke, Corey, Rachel, & Jennifer specifically) are wonderful. They are really good with kids and very encouraging. I wish I'd had such nice, inclusive dance teachers growing up.
My daughters have attended Dance Connection since age 3 and they love their classes. They both started with the preschool tap/ballet combo class. My older daughter has expanded to jazz and an acro/flexibility class. They really love Miss Cindy and the other teachers. Dance Connection has done a great job managing through Covid with options for both distance in person and Zoom online classes. My girls have been so happy to have it as a constant through this difficult year. They have grown in their appreciation of this art form and in developing their own self expression and joy when dancing.
