I can see their skills developing further in the ballet classes, and frankly they are head and shoulders above kids who attend "dance moms" style schools. Obviously Covid changed operations, but I never felt uncomfortable sending my kids here. Miss Collins was relentlessly sanitizing and emphasizing proper hygiene, and held classes on a beautiful outdoor stage as long as weather permitted. Couldn't recommend highly enough-it's absolutely worth it!!

They want the best for their students and encourage their creativity through dance. The student's own dedication to the art will determine how much they flourish, and the teachers will support them throughout their journey. Many of the teachers also teach throughout the Northeast and the suburbs so they are well-known in the area. I'm happy to say I consider many of the teachers close friends as I've grown up with them. Thank you to the entire staff at Defino II for everything! It's great to see a family business that continues to grow after more than 50 years.

Prior to our move my oldest daughter danced there for 15 yrs, she had her last recital this past June. We have loved all 15 yrs and wish we could have continued. Mia couldn't have been happier there and I'm am so happy she danced all 15 yrs at the same studio. Watching MnD grow into the studio it is now has been amazing. I wish them all the luck at the new location and can't wait to see it when we go to Philly for a visit. Our youngest daughter is so sad she will not be able to continue her dance career there. She started danced when she was 3, danced for a couple of yrs but wanted to play sports more, she left dance but then decided she wanted to go back, Miss Staci and MnD welcomed her back with open arms. Molly has made some of the best friends she could ask for at the studio. It has always been a welcoming space for parents and dancers. We are at a new studio and the difference is just mind boggling!!! I know I have to give this new studio a chance, but it's hard when you have been with such a GREAT dance family for so long. I keep asking where are the dance packets, when does intensive start, I need dates, I need more info. MnD needs to go around the country and teach other studios to do what they do, LOL. If I could give MnD 10 stars I would!!! Good Luck this season, I can't wait to see all the photos of the dancers I have loved to watch grow and be their best. Miss you all!

Some children (including her own) are very blatantly favored and other children are never given the chance to shine. The routines are the same year after year. Also, I was shocked to hear her being "catty" and talking about the children that she teaches and of families and their financial situation. She and her mother have displayed this lack of professionalism on more occasions than I can recount. It was very uncomfortable to be around to hear this. The studio is small and not very clean. The classes are too big and many times are not on the level that they should be for the skills of the children. I was very disappointed and with all of the good dance studios in the area, it is best to shop around.
