Mrs Denise is a very talented dance instructor.My daughter loved her, the only problem that drove us away was all the fees revolving around the recital (ie $50 dvd as you were not allowed to take pictures or video yourself, $15 shirt for rehearsal,$150 for recital costume ,since there are 2 nights of shows, $15.50 per ticket and parents need a ticket for every night, not including pictures of your child in their costume that run $16 (okay not bad)but didn't come in until 3 weeks after the recital. The makeup required for my 3 year old was more then most women I know too.) In short love the teacher hate the eccentricities that follow.
