We've recently joined the LDW Family and firstly, just wanted to say how incredibly happy we are to have found you.  This is exactly the environment, community and instructors that we had been hoping for Kaiya and we could not be more thankful to have found your wonderful school. I have never seen Kaiya open up as she has her first class.  The pandemic has taken a toll on her social health.  Pre-pandemic she was a very social little girl. After almost a year in complete isolation she went back to daycare in June and still has not yet spoken a single word or partaken in any class activities. To see her go up and dance without hesitation, join the class and participate in every movement, meant the world to us and was a HUGE step for her towards opening up. Thank you again. Truly. We are in absolute shock as to how much Kaiya loves it.  Every morning she wakes up asking if it is Saturday yet and when she can go back to “Ballet School”.  We already love you, and feel very confident we’ll be a positive part of your family for many years to come….Wow!  That recital was AMAZING!!!  We’re all totally blown away and so happy to be part of this family now! Thanks again so much!  We’re so happy to have found you and see Kaiya coming out of her shell.
Big hugs and high-fives!

Congratulations to you, your staff and all the great dancers. 
John and I attended Annabelle 1st ballet recital on Saturday afternoon and I was overwhelmed with emotion. The show was fantastic! 
You must be so proud of these kids and what you have all accomplished after the last 2 years. The fun and enthusiasm displayed on Saturday has left a joyous memory for John and me. 
We look forward to future shows and continuing the dance traditions and love in our family. 
Thank You All.

Everyone looked great and the whole production ran smoothly - as far as I could tell and as a parent/audience member and that's what matters. 
You have a great team who obviously put in a lot of organizational time. I hope you all get some rest and we look forward to classes in the Fall.

I would like to take a moment to thank you and your teachers for everything!  Maya lives to dance and can’t see herself doing anything else. She would be in the studio every waking minute if she could. And I will do everything I can to make her dreams come true. I am so happy we moved to LDW and that Maya gets to be part of such an amazing team of dancers, choreographers and teachers. Thank you so much.
