She has made so many lifelong friends and so have I. Every person who is a part of this studio has always looked out for the dancers' well being, and that is the truth. We have experienced this personally. We will truly miss the owners, instructors and all the staff. We have so many fond memories of recitals, Nationals and countless dance competitions. This was the best thing for my daughter! Roselle, IL

The owner, who was her teacher, and teaching assistants made her feel comfortable and she hasn't been timid since day one. Members of the owner's family run the front and are always helpful. The entire atmosphere reminds me of where I attended dance as a child; this studio keeps growing but keeps their small-studio feel. The recitals are truly an awesome experience! We like the ease of the recital package that LCD puts together (one reasonable price for DVD, costume, etc.) and optional fundraising to help with the price of this package. It's another one of the small touches that makes a big difference. It's always disappointing to see a place that you like get a negative review, especially when it appears to be more of a personal vendetta.

The competition classes do not push you or make you a better dancer at all, instead you're stuck with doing easy routines and no challenges what so ever. I highly wouldn't recommend going here it is more a studio for young children not young adults. The teachers will disrespect you if you're not the favorite and do not treat all dancers equally. The studio really needs to also work on organization, it would be better to look into somewhere else if you're interested in serious dancing and competing.

My 18 year old daughter just finished 2 years with the Academy of Dance Arts and is about to begin…read moreher first season at a professional company as a trainee. Honestly, the only regret we have regarding ADA is that we didn't find it sooner. Shortly after starting here and experiencing the caliber of instruction they provide, our daughter was thrilled with the immediate improvements in her dancing. I was thrilled as well, but also a tad miffed at myself that we had wasted so much of her time/ our money for so long elsewhere. She had previously been commuting from Naperville to Chicago to a studio where she was treading water in a sea of talent. If you were not one of the top dancers in the room, you were lost. Under 1 of the instructors ( half of her time there), she only learned by listening to the corrections she gave to the "really good girls" (my daughter's words ). She loved it there, but we didn't know how much better things could be. When quarantine happened and commuting wasn't an option, we looked locally and found ADA; it was less expensive and so close to our home in Naperville and seemed too good to be true. As a nurse, I was nervous about her starting back in a studio full of kiddos huffing and puffing during Covid (pre-vaccine) but was amazed at the level of precautions in place. The studios at ADA are beautiful: spacious, new, and clean. They had thought of everything to keep the students safe and dancing back in the studio again rather than the sometimes necessary zoom dancing (which ADA also executed really well). Sherry Moray, the founder and Artistic Director, saw our daughter's potential but immediately recognized some habits she had developed that had never been corrected. Sherry quickly got to the root of problems that had been challenging our daughter for years, and she began to improve dramatically. Sherry, Irina, and Diana are amazing instructors who continued to fix the cracks in the foundation and challenge her in new ways, all in a manner that built her up. They believed in her, and that helped her to believe in herself. So much of succeeding in dance comes down to confidence, and that is what made the change exponential. ADA has a family/ community feel, and the staff was/ is truly invested in my daughters' best interests. Louise (Studio Manager and fellow dance mom) was amazing in helping our daughter navigate a new studio and the world of competitions. She's an incredible resource and a kind person. Sherry frequently checked in with our daughter regarding her future plans and what she thought would be best when it came to auditioning, etc. Their expertise was invaluable, but the staff's level of caring and investment was such a pleasant surprise and something which I believe to be a rarity. Our daughter has been dancing for 15 years, and we have experience with 4 different dance studios, never has she grown as much as she has in these past 2 years at ADA. It has truly been such a great experience!
