Both times the owner answered and she was extremely personable and answered all of my questions without hesitation or a drop of sarcasm-- nothing! I found out everything I needed to know while I was on the phone with her and that alone was a good experience. She allowed me to do a free drop in for my daughter to try it out and see if it would be a good fit. It turned out to be great, especially after leaving the alternate/other dance studio I had just left and was disappointed with. The studio is cute and nicely updated on the inside. The instructors were happy to be there. My daughter enjoyed herself-- I will be returning. They even offer drinks that you can buy from a fridge in their lobby, which is a plus for me! Oh, and you can watch your child from large screens posted in the lobby. Score! :)

This past year you could see a real focus on advancing technology and diverse modes of communication to reflect the times and keep parents informed. From dance, to theatre, to summer camp we are glad to be a MAD family.

They are a non-profit organization that is more interested in teaching dance as an art form than making a buck. I've had at least one of my munchkins going here for the last 4 years (ever since we moved to this area). Between them they've taken Ballet 1, 2, 3, 4, Pre-Pointe, Pointe, Modern Dance, Tap, and Jazz...so I think we've seen quite a variety of classes. We could not be happier with KDT. It has been and continues to be a positive place for our munchkins to learn dance (and made some good friends to boot). If you're in the market for a place for your little ones (or even big ones) to learn about dance I'd definitely suggest checking them out.

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.

My boyfriend and I took lessons with Jen for 2 years. We mainly learned Waltz, Cha Cha, and Tango,…read morebut we also learned some basics of Viennese Waltz, Rumba, Foxtrot and several Latin dances. She holds 2 dance shows a year: one in the winter at the clubhouse in her neighborhood which is mainly to show parents and family where you're at in your practice with a few routines, and then another in the spring that's at AACC and more of a full on dance show. Jen works with all different types of people, from kids age 4 or so to adults in retirement. She's wonderful with kids, we've seen her interact with them after our classes ended and at the dance shows. She not only teaches Ballroom and Latin to teenagers and adults, but she teaches kids ballet, tap and hip hop. It's amazing the skillset she has. She takes her ballroom/latin students to competitions and trains them to test for different levels. We never did any of that as we mainly just wanted to learn for fun and to be able to dance together, but it was very tempting sometimes as we learned more! We tried out two different dance studios before deciding to go here because we really liked her teaching style. And if you're not understanding something, she will give you different ways to think of it and have you focus on certain areas rather than the whole picture to help you commit different areas to muscle memory, whether it be your arms, your hips, your feet, etc. before moving onto another area. I used to do social dance in college and I was never taught how to make those hips sway in that suave way in Latin dances. I just thought I had to shake my butt, but Jen finally cracked the code for me! Not that I'm amazing at it, but I now know how it works! I could write about this academy for days, but all in all, it's an amazing school and Jen is a wonderful teacher. I would recommend her to anyone.

She is a very gifted dancer and all around beautiful human being.
