“Love the staff here and the instructors are great and really friendly. Adding to my original post, Avery, Molly, and the rest of the staff are so patient, thoughtful and caring teachers of dance for students of all levels. We are so happy we learned about this school and if you are in the area, I strongly encourage you to walk in and just observe and you will definitely fall in love with these great teachers and supportive community they are building.”
“I am the parent of a 4-year old and attended this performance. I really appreciated how thoughtful this performance was pulled together – the PDF that was sent in advance, outlining what to expect, was incredibly useful and helpful, and I reviewed it several times with my child beforehand. I was grateful to have the freedom to move throughout the performance without worrying that we were being disruptive. The “fidget” toys and activities in the lobby were also greatly appreciated. Honestly, all around wonderfully done. Great show! Just keep it up!”
“This was absolutely amazing. You truly thought of everything from the lights, to the sound, to the area in the lobby for attendees to go for a sensory break, to passing out fight toys while entering the theater. It was such a wonderful event and well attended. Thank you. My daughter was in the performance as one of the Dance 4 All Abilities dancers and it was something that will always hold a special place in our hearts because of the chance she had to be part of the “typical” performance, wear a traditional costume, and to be included by the other dancers. The teachers and staff at CDS are truly incredible. Thank you! We love the play, costumes.”
