I feel lucky that my kids have the chance to go to an exciting and inspiring Victorian studio to dance! The best way I can describe Mrs. Tracy is that shes always spot on, always appropriate to the situation. She is warm-hearted, but not sugary-sweet all the timeno dance teacher worth her salt is, as theres discipline to be maintained. She puts a great deal of thought into everything. I have several children enrolled, so I am in the lobby a lot, and Ive seen her ask for help and apologize for mistakes. Its more than just a business; the staff is terrific, the recitals are exquisitely
