“Wanted to say thank you so much!! The girls celebrated their birthday party here yesterday, and they had so much fun along with all of their friends. On Stage is incredible, you made the party an easy thing and we didn’t have to worry about anything. Your staff was so high energy and kept the kids so engaged. The best! We can’t say enough good things about this studio!”
– Kristy, dance parent to 2
“I also have to say, thank you so much for noticing the growth with A this year. I have also noticed a big change in her confidence – her passion for dance has increased and with that she is taking more risks and believing in herself. This has been beautiful to witness. I cannot thank you and all of the dance teachers for fostering her dance life.”
– Rhiannon, dance parent & dancer
“I cannot find the words to express how grateful we are for the year that Lucy has had. You have always outwardly expressed what an amazing community OSD has, and you did not over sell it. This year has not only been a joy for Lucy to participate in, but as the main parent to support this passion, I have also felt incredibly supported the entire time. Thank you so much for sharing your passion with our daughter. Everything you have been able to create at OSD is absolutely inspiring.”
– Shannon Mathers, dance parent
“I would like to thank you for everything you and the other teachers have done for me ever since I started dancing. The entire faculty have helped me become an incredible dancer and (I would like to think) a respectable person. You have fed my passion for dance throughout it all. I will cherish every memory I have made regarding dance, from late nights in the studio to shining on the stage. I will never forget all of the valuable lessons dance has taught me, such as teamwork, dedication, and perseverance.”
– Bailey Ross, former On Stage dancer
“We have watched our little girl turn into a young woman through dance. She is usually quiet and shy in group settings but has developed a great confidence due to her stage experiences while working with each of you”
– Anna Doupe, dance parent
“We so appreciate you and the On Stage staff. You are playing a huge role in raising my kids to be future leaders and good human beings. Your patience with the dancers is not unseen and for that we are grateful. Your energy is amazing and you have succeeded in making another one of my children fall in love with dance which just makes my heart so happy!”
– Jen McMahon, dance parent to 3 dancers
“I have always been grateful for you and the dance studio family you have built but find myself especially grateful the past few years. I used to think about how Brianna would not be who she is without dance. But for at least the past six years, I have become aware that it is not just “dance” per say, but it is this dance studio, this studio owner, these teachers, this dance family!
Thank you for your vision, your passion, your fire, your drive, your energy, your commitment, and your love, including the tough love when it was needed. Brianna has been with you for 13 of her 18 years, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I can’t wait to see what happens next!”
Anne Hutchinson, former dance parent & now parent of a staff member!
“Thank you for this year of dance – I have seen an insane shift in L as a person. Her self esteem and overall well-being has really blossomed and I would attribute most of that to being a part of the IDP crew, observing and learning from her team and the other groups as well. I just thought you should know, the environment you’ve created has made a huge difference in our lives, and we are so thankful. It’s such a wonderful feeling as a mother who saw her self conscious daughter struggling in various aspects of life, be able to see such a positive shift in her confidence. Fills my heart, so again, thank you. She loves being at the studio both dancing and assisting.”
– Deanne Keating, dance parent
