Phoebe (mom of Irie & Mika)
I just wanted to thank you all for an amazing and inspiring recital last weekend. My husband and I were so impressed with the students' dancing, the shared passion and dedication to the practice but most importantly we were impressed and uplifted by the pure unbridled joy that could be felt from all of the kids. The team at ddf does a wonderful job guiding and teaching the dancers while also always allowing time for fun. We were also impressed by the organization of the production. It cannot be an easy feat pulling off a 7-recital weekend-long production with so many dancers of such different ages. Bravo! It was a huge success. Thank you again for all of your hard work and all of the positive energy that entire team brings to each class.
Shannon (mom of Summer & Cooper)
Just wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS and a big THANK YOU for the recitals last weekend. Cooper and Summer just had a blast!! All the performers were amazing and I’m always in awe of how you all craft such well produced shows!! The sheer volume of kids you work with and what you are able to do with them is truly inspiring. Thank you again for giving my kids such a fantastic experience on stage!
Chloe (mom of Lily & Coco)
Just wanted to say a big thank you for another year of amazing recitals! They were all outstanding and as much as I love love love watching those precious little ones, it's so inspiring and exciting to watching all those beautiful big girls and boys dance. The standard is so incredibly high and they are all such a credit to you guys! Many congratulations!
Lots of love and gratitude for all you've done for our children and community. You'll likely never know the extent of it ... but the friendships and experiences we've had because of you guys are simply priceless.
Melina (mom of Cici, Willow & Phineas)
I have a hard time finding the words to adequately express the immense gratitude that I feel for all that you do, and the significance that DDF has taken on in my children’s lives. This was our family’s third recital season, and each year leaves us even more impressed with the quality of dancing; the dedication and hard work; the commitment, energy and palpable love exuding from the tiniest dancers to the superstar veterans on that stage.
My littlest kindi hopper was floating on cloud nine, parading around in her sparkly star costume. She went to bed dreaming of lights and applause, Mrs. Vicki hugs, and big cheers for her favorite ‘big brother’, Charlie.
My older (but still little) dancer, lives and breathes dance from sunrise to bedtime. She watches and tries to copy every DDF video on youtube. She knows and looks up to the company dancers. She counts the hours to her DDF classes. The love of dance and passion DDF has instilled in her is absolutely invaluable.
Pulling off an event of that volume and caliber so seamlessly, is a colossal feat. I know how tirelessly you both work and how exhausted you must feel. I hope that you also feel incredibly proud and valued for the supportive, loving and passionate community you have created.
All this, to say a huge, hearty ‘thank you’!!
Stacey (mom of Belle & Sadie)
I can't thank you enough for an amazing year of dancing for my daughters. they both love it so much and for Sadie it has really become her life. She lives and breathes dance everyday and loves DDF SO MUCH. Thank you for creating something that has given her such focus and passion.
The recitals were amazing, all six of them! its amazing to me the organization feat it is to pull those off so smoothly, not to mention the creativity and talent bursting off the stage. Really unbelievable. We are so happy and proud and grateful to be a part of the community you created.
Thank you very much!

Mary (mom of Nina)
We just wanted to thank you, on the heels of yesterday's wonderful recital event, for bringing the DDF to life! The energy and passion that everyone associated with your program brings is infectious to the kids.
Bonnie (mom of Ariella & Juliana)
I am beyond impressed with how smoothly and professionally everything went and most importantly how incredibly happy all of the kids were performing ... I truly believe it has to do with the beautiful combination of genuine acceptance and affection that you show, without foregoing high expectations. So, thank-you thank-you for being such wonderful influences in our girls' lives. Keep up the amazing work!

Amy (mom of West)
As a DDF first timer, I truly didn't know what to expect of the recital performance...AMAZING! You both have such a gift & I feel so lucky to have my daughter at your studio. You try your best as a parent to expose your kiddies to people, places and activities that will enrich and shape them into well-rounded big people...DDF does that on so many levels! Hats off to you.
Sari (mom of Sasha)
