One of my daughters has wanted to be a ballerina her whole life. Unfortunately, her first year at another local studio was a disaster. Then we were lucky enough to find Kelly's dance and it has been a wonderful experience. Upon registering, they were very helpful and easy to reach during the online process. They even had a meet the teacher night, at which you could also order shoes etc... Our first class we forgot her dance bag and they were insistent it was fine and let us borrow a pair of school shoes. Class was enjoyable, I even got to watch on a TV. Both my other girls decided to sign up as

As someone who use to work at the studio and sees it all behind the scenes. The management is awful. Very rude and thinks they can just boss everyone around as they please. Children get frowny faces if they have to go to the bathroom more than once ( that’s what we were told to do). It’s honestly a joke. Go to any dance studio but here if you want a fun and real experience for the love of dance. I’ve danced my whole life and have never witnessed a place as bad as this. There’s no real fun the children are made to learn “skills” that they barely can even do because most of them are BABIES

Great dance studio for little ones! Mrs. Kelly is a retired elementary school teacher, so she knows how to make learning fun and how to keep her classes organized. Students learn the basics of dance in a fun, supportive environment with wonderful instructors--my daughter loved Miss Megan. Parents can watch every lesson on TV screens in the waiting room. Classes are small so that each child gets individualized instruction.

Several years ago my daughter wanted to get into dance. I looked at a lot of places but to me the only one that was age appropriate for her was Kelly's. I'm so glad that I made that choice! They have become more than a dance studio to us, it's our dance family. The teachers are wonderful! This years recital was outstanding! I couldn't imagine being anywhere else!

We love Kelly's dance! My daughter has been in love with dance ever since she could walk. Finding a studio proved to be a bit of a challenge. My Zoe was VERY shy 3 year old and it seemed that no one wanted to take time to talk to her. The moment Kelly met us she knelt down and talked to Zoe. I knew then I was in the right place. Since then Zoe (almost 6) has become the least shy young lady you will meet. Kelly has an amazing studio with a tv's so you can watch your little one practice and a separate studio for the little one's.( the little one's under 5) I love her willingness to always work with

Absolutely LOVE this studio. They have been there for us through rough times and good times. They have also been very supportive and understanding. Love to see it grow. My kids have grown so much in dance and their love of dance has grown as well. We love the friends we have made and also the family we have become and has made. We will definitely be back in a few years and will recommend this studio to others. We can not wait to see how it grows.
