Testimonials
“For three years of our collaboration, our grade 4 students have
learned to dance … and much more. They have learned how to carry
themselves with pride and grace. They have learned to respond to others
with courtesy and respect and they have learned to love dancing. I am
an enthusiastic supporter of this program and the very professional and dignified
organization which has brought the program to us.”
- Rober Froccaro,
Principal PS 119
“I want to begin by thanking you for providing all of our fifth graders
the opportunity to learn ballroom dancing. Your program was truly amazing!
I watched all of the boys and girls turn into ladies and gentlemen right before
my eyes. It was an experience that will last a lifetime. There was a sense
of teamwork and school spirit among students and teachers that I’ve never
seen before.”
- Meredith Frattalone, PS 69
“Your manner with the children is just wonderful. You were able to get the dance concepts and social etiquette across to the children as well as involve the teachers in your lessons. They have learned to dance and be respectful – I congratulate you on a job well done. Thank you for your enthusiasm, energy and professionalism.” – Manal Ashmawy, Assistant Principal, PS 146M
