Love this studio! Very family friendly! The staff is helpful and informative and they have GREAT instructors. I have 2 daughters that dance here and they not only have learned technique and fun dances, they have made lifetime friendships! I would definitely recommend this studio if you’re looking for a great experience in dance!
My daughter has been dancing at this studio for 11 years and loves every minute she is there. She has developed great friendships with the other students and looks up to the teachers, who are amazing instructors. She is joining her high school dance team this fall and the studio is so understanding about school commitments and always is flexible with us when needed. At the same time, they produce a professional looking recital every year at the Carpenter Center, a holiday show and offer multiple levels of competition teams. All of the parents, kids, and teachers are down to earth too, while still providing excellent instruction.
My daughter has danced with CSDA since she was. 2 1/2. She loves this studio, the teachers and her dance family. Because of CSDA, my daughter is confident and respectful. The relationships she has created with teacher's and staff will last a lifetime. The level of instruction has always been top notch and she loves representing CSDA. Thank you Ms. Leslie and the all the wonderful teachers for giving my girl confidence.
We have been part of the CSDA family for 12 years. Our daughter loves dancing there and considers it a second home. She's had some great instruction and we appreciate Leslie and all the other instructors who have spent time helping her to achieve her goals.
LOVE THIS PLACE! I have 3 girls and they all dance here. Been dancing here for about 8 years now. We love the teachers and staff here. I would definitely recommend checking out CSDA if you are looking for a studio for your child. They can casually take classes or if your child is more serious about dance they can also be on a competitive dance team without you having to be an "Abby Lee DANCE MOM" It's like a family here.
