Barbara Rethlake Dance Studio

May 2015

My daughter enjoys dancing for Ms. Barbara. Barbara pushes her students and only gets sharp when they won't listen. She has a great music selection, affordable classes, and relatively modest costumes. I appreciate her as a teacher and for the way she encourages children as well as helping realize they are capable of far more than they imagined. Great place for your student to learn dance!

My daughter has been a student with Barb for 10 years now, and continues to love it. Barb is "old school" in that she teaches not only the proper techniques, but expects her students to be responsible and accountable. In other words, you might hear her raise her voice sometimes because she expects them to make it the very best that they can - no sugarcoating. In the end, the results are fantastic at the review, and the kids have a great time presenting a real professional grade show for the public. Several of her students have gone on to dance at the college and professional level over the years, you know that she's doing it right.
