Testimonials...

Dear Doreen & Staff,

I wanted to write you a very special thank you. Alexa & her 13 girlfriends had so much fun at her 6th Brithday Party at your dance center. They are still talking about it!!

Hannah & Emily did such a great job & had so much fun with the girls. They were wonderful!

It was so easy for myself - all I did was pick a date & fill out the form, and it was so wonderful to have everyone do the rest!

Music + Dancing + Make-up + Nails + Crowns + Wands + Snacks + Drinks + Cake + Presents + Games + Loot Bags = Many Happy Little Girls!

I would totally recommend your parties to everyone & can't wait to do it again next year!

Thanks again,

Stacie R.

Having Fun!

We had a BLAST in NYC! 33 people attended our 7th annual NYC trip on Jan. 15-16. We took a motorcoach into the city where we took dance classes at STEPS on Broadway & Dance New Amsterdam. Then we met up at our hotel & headed to a fabulous dinner at Virgil's Southern BBQ. On Sunday the dancers had an opportunity to meet "Memphis" cast member Paul McGill & learn the finale dance. Then, after a great lunch, we made our way to the Shubert Theater & saw "Memphis"! Needless to say, we were all out of our seats, dancing along during the finale! What a wonderful trip! Can't wait to do it again next year!
