WHAT PARENTS SAY

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Move Dance Family has been transformative for my daughter. The teachers genuinely care about each child, and the positive environment has built her confidence in ways I never expected."

Sarah M.

Parent of Emma, age 7

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"We tried several studios before finding MDF, and the difference is night and day. It's not just about dance technique—it's about building character and community."

Jennifer L.

Parent of twins, age 10

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"From day one, our daughter felt welcomed and special. The family atmosphere here is genuine, and we couldn't be happier with our decision to join."

Michael R.

Parent of Sofia, age 5

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"I love everything about this place. My children have so much fun while learning how to dance. I’m so thankful for Marion and Leslie for helping my kids gain confidence to face their fears. Awesome place."

Heather D.

Parent of Aubrey, age 11

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Just had my daughter’s 3rd birthday here and it was perfect. The little playroom is perfect for the younger kids and keeps the older kids entertained as guests arrive. Ms. Lesley was so bubbly and sweet — the kids had a blast with her.

Ms. Lesley helped us stay on schedule and helped us manage our guests and the kids. The setup and decorating they did was beautiful. I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday party for my little girl.

Thank you Move Dance and Fitness for making my daughter’s birthday so special and memorable. All my friends and family said they had a blast!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"As a parent with no dance background, I’ve found this school incredibly easy and seamless to be part of. Communication is clear and thoughtful—the weekly newsletter is so helpful, and anytime I’ve had a question, I’ve received a quick, friendly response.

Most importantly, my 4-year-old absolutely loves her ballet class and teacher. It’s truly age-appropriate, well-structured, and something she looks forward to every single week. Parking can be a little challenging, and the space where parents can watch the live-streamed classes can get a little crowded, but neither is inconvenient enough to be any real concern. We’re so grateful to have found such a positive and welcoming place!"

Maggie C.

Parent of Ellie, age 4

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Me encanto Move dance family. Son demasiado serviciales y se preocupan mucho por las niñas y tienen un trato muy cordial con ellas. Muy pacientes a la hora de enseñar. Es la primera vez que voy a llevar a mi bebe a clases de ballet y ella le encanto mucho. Te ayudan mucho con la registration y están contigo en el proceso. Estoy contenta con ellos. Los recomiendo 100%

Viviana P.

Parent of Ema, age 2

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"The dance studio is very welcoming. The choreography is great, my daughter is loving it"

Tobenna L.

Parent of Kainene, age 13

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Jessica G.

Parent of Sarah, age 13
