The Wednesday morning class is a joy. The dancers are a nice mix ranging from students who danced as children, to others who more recently have realized an adult dream come true, college students earning degrees, people who seek an outstanding form of fitness, as well as active and retired dancers enjoying their craft. Altogether it is a healthy mix of upbeat, friendly, supportive people. When I am there, the problems of the world drop away. And when I leave, I feel exhilarated and ready for anything. Jeannie H.

I began dancing with Denise at 7 years old, when she was a coach in Pop Warner and I had the…read moreprivilege of studying under her for more than 10 years. Denise has a unique ability to inspire and motivate people of all ages. Her passion for dance (and life!) is infectious, and she instilled in me a life-long love of dance. Now, as an adult, I continue to teach dance and I reminded of Denise often when teaching my own students. Her love, her energy, and her passion are a gift. She is a skilled teacher and choreographer and makes dance fun for all ages!

When we came here and found out this would not be tolerated from parents or kids, I felt so relieved. At our old studio, in the last year of the new owner, my child's dance skills regressed. In these past few months at Next Level, all of my kids skills increased tenfold, as well as their confidence, and their anxiety lessened. My daughter was still able to be a part of the competition team and have a solo even though we were new. They believe in my kids and they care about them. We love Miss Gina, Ms. Dee, Ms. Katie, Ms.Ashley, Ms.Sharon, and Ms. Carissa. And what we have learned from the ballet teacher, Ms. Larissa, and her amazing structure and experience with Russian ballet is unmatched. She is strict but my daughter adores her because she cares so much. In the past, she hated ballet, now she wants private lessons with her - she is a miracle worker! I highly recommend this school!!!!

As a former dancer and dance instructor, I am highly impressed with the teachers, instruction and choreography at this school.

Love this place. My 14 year-old just signed up for her third year. What really sets Freestyle apart…read moreis that it's truly all about the love of dance. While there is a competitive dance team that students can audition for, the week-to-week class focus is on learning and dancing. We've tried other schools in the past and I usually end up feeling like the kids spend the whole year planning for a huge, expensive, loooong recital. Here, the year ends with a dance showcase that is warm and friendly and reasonably priced to attend and to participate in (no expensive costumes that your kids will only wear once). Colleen is an amazingly talented, patient, and enthusiastic teacher. Tony, the owner, is just a super great guy. The whole staff is very friendly and they seem to get along like a family. Give Freestyle a try!
