BDA has a motto of kindness first and it really shows in my childs smile and the friends she has made. The moms are really encouraging of each other and their dancers. Miss Jasmine and her team has shown nothing but kindness and compassion for the dancers and the children's dreams of creativity and expression through dance. It really feels like and extended family.

Keep changing the lives of the children of this community BDA and KeKay! I can't wait for my baby girl to continue to learn with KeKay and one day join the dance studio too!!!!

This studio encourages children to grow not only in dance but in self confidence. I have seen my girls bloom at this studio. They have made amazing friends had a great time and have learned to self love. Beyond the staff and the classes this studio fosters a dance family vibe. Parents here are so welcoming and are always quick to understanding, compassion and empathy. Everyone truly just wants everyone to feel welcomed and loved. I have made amazing friends at this studio and could not imagine where I would be without them. Although we all parent differently and have different views on different subjects our love for our kids seems to bond us all. This studio also goes above and beyond by making sure all dances and costumes are age appropriate as well as offering classes for everyone from mommy and me to adoptive to adult jazz and tap ( which is a blast) . I honestly could not emphasize enough how thankful i am for this studio and all they have done for not only for my children but for my whole family and our community.

The owners greeted us warmly, they had a beautiful and bountiful hors-d'oeuvres spread. They had dancers of different ages putting on rehearsed dance routines. It was so nice to see. If my knee weren't injured, I'd be signing up immediately!! It's a great, convenient venue, and the dancers looked like they were having a "ball"! ;) Highly recommend this place. Not sure about all the racial generalizations/allegations made by another reviewer who made a ridiculous judgement based on what must have been a 5 min encounter; but these folks are NOT prejudiced and very nice people...and they know their dance moves!!

We just stopped in this establishment to inquire about classes, etc. It was obvious by the look on his face & the rude tone in his voice that he did not want to be bothered with us. He looked at us as if to say, "Who gave you permission to come in here?" There was not a class going on at the time we entered, in fact, there was only one lady (who looked just as surprised to see us in there, too), so we were not disturbing a class or private lesson. Lesson learned, I should have called first, since I have been told that I sound "white" on the phone. Maybe then, he would have been willing to share information about his business.

The teachers are professionals, they're educated, & they all have a passion that clearly resonates to all the students. They offer a wide range of classes for everyone, toddlers to grown ups. They also are very involved in the community and participate in many parades, and local outreaches; the main one being Disney World. If there is a setback, it would be the amount of money that could add up with tuition, dance uniforms, & props. Either way, this is the best dance school in Hampton Roads by far!
