TESTIMONIALS

  • I have been touched by dancED’s ability to shine a light on the students who, due to familial, personal, or physical challenges require extra support, encouragement or recognition. Over the six years that they have brought their program to our school, I have personally witnessed children who are going through difficult times be uplifted, empowered and overjoyed by the experience dancED provides.

    JAY PROCKTOR, TEACHER

  • DancED is the best artist in residency I have ever worked with. Staff members, students and parents all love their program. The dance showcase at the end of the residency brings the school community together and provides students with the opportunity to share what they learned with their families.

    COLLEEN MARSHALL, PRINCIPAL

  • Meaningful discussion, active participation and content that supports the curriculum in a fun package!

  • I have never seen my son so happy in a learning environment. He struggles academically so to see him find joy in learning something new was wonderful. After each day at camp, he would tell me "it was the best day ever!" He obviously took your encouragement and many other lessons to heart. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity, talent, and positive energy with him.

    PARENT

  • dancED has created the Goldilocks of dance instruction. For students (and teachers) of all ages and grades, the level of difficulty and interest was JUST RIGHT! We were all eager to learn from such cheerful, enthusiastic and positive dancers. It was such an amazing experience!

    ANN SHEEHAN, TEACHER

  • With our in-person residency cancelled in the sudden pivot to online and distance learning, this amazing organization looked to re-imagine their business and proposed a virtual experience for our school. I was immediately impressed with the level of professionalism and flexibility they demonstrated in working with us to plan daily, classroom specific, lessons, practice videos and online dance tutorials.

    KAREN STEINHAUER, PRINCIPAL

  • I would like to thank you, Andrea and Krista, for the opportunity to take part in dancED this year. It felt amazing to embark on a journey like that because it truly made school feel normal through this pandemic. Thanks! You guys are amazing!

    MUSTAFA, GRADE 9 STUDENT

  • What struck me as unique to their program was the uplifting energy and focus on self esteem they delivered to these kids. To this day, a song will come on from one of the dances my daughters learned and the conversation will begin…It has been years and they still talk about it!

    SANDRA DAVIS, PARENT

  • The dancED instructors did an exemplary job of teaching and leading with our students. Not only did they bring their A-game every day, they were on time, professional, cheerful, welcoming, and warm... just what our staff and students needed to feel confident about our dancing. Their knowledge and skills made the residency experience that much better!

    ERIN IAMPEN, PRINCIPAL

  • Our week of dance provided an exhilarating experience for our school community. The dancED instructors dedicated themselves to delivering tailored instruction that we have come to know and appreciate over the years.

    CAROL HRYCUN, TEACHER

  • We LOVED our experience with DancED’s virtual residency program. It had been a struggle to keep our daughter excited and engaged with online, distance learning. When the DancED residency started she became excited to log into Google classroom each morning...It was exactly the engagement and motivation that we needed to make distance learning fun and active again!

    JASMINE WALKEY, PARENT

  • I have always looked forward to dancED and this year has been the best year of all 5 years… This is the first time in my whole life that I have danced and it is amazing. It is so much fun and I am always excited.

    RYAN, GRADE 6 STUDENT

  • I appreciated so much the solid pedagogical approach to dance that your instructors used. They scaffolded and chunked the learning in ways that were totally appropriate to the various age levels. The actions and movements were taught using age-appropriate descriptions and language, and the history of hip-hop was presented in a way that was understandable to each group while being connected with what they were learning.
