Dance Matters had been a fantastic experience for my toddler. The instructor is patient, warm, energetic, and great at engaging the little ones. The class is playful and well structured for toddlers (under 24 months). My child hates when the class ends. If you are looking to get out this winter with your kids, I highly recommend checking out Dance Matters.
My daughter loves going to her Ballet classes and enjoys her teacher! The school has a warm and inviting environment. Dance Matters have beautiful recitals at the end of each session. They showcase amazing talent! I was really impressed how much my daughter learned in a short period of time. I highly recommend Dance Matters! We love the school! Reasonably priced as well!
I can’t ask for a better dance studio than Dance matters. Spacious, clean studio with wonderful professional teachers and very organized. It’s the best place I found for my daughter to cultivate the love of dance. Thank you and keep up the amazing work.
I recently enrolled my granddaughter in the Sunday Hip Hop Primary A class at 10:30 AM at Dance Matters NYC, and I couldn’t be happier with the decision. After trying out both the hip hop and ballet classes, we chose hip hop because of her high energy — and it turned out to be the perfect fit! She truly enjoys dancing and looks forward to class every week. What makes this experience even better is that the class is small, which allows each child to get more attention and really participate. It creates a fun, engaging environment where every student feels included. The teacher is amazing — enthusiastic, caring, and full of positive energy. From the very first class, I could tell the instructor had a special way of connecting with the kids and making the experience both fun and meaningful. I’m so glad we found Dance Matters NYC. It’s a wonderful place that brings out the joy of dancing in children!
My 5 year old daughter attends the ballet class at Dance NYC every Friday, and I’ve been consistently impressed with the program. The instructors are highly professional and treat the children with respect, care, and encouragement. It’s a very well-run class that not only teaches ballet skills, but also instills important life lessons like patience, discipline, and how to follow instructions. Beyond the technical dance training, the class helps children learn how to stay on schedule, listen attentively, and work as part of a group — all valuable skills they can carry into other areas of life. It’s clear that the team at Dance NYC is passionate about what they do, and they’ve created a positive, structured environment where kids can grow in both confidence and ability. Overall, I’m very happy with the program and would highly recommend it to other parents looking for a strong, supportive introduction to ballet for their children.
