Kind and caring owners. Very professional and excellent instruction. A local business that enjoys being part of the community. They promote healthy relationships among the dancers and support them emotionally and physically. An excellent place to dance in a positive environment!

Muffy and Wayne are seriously the best! We moved from California two years ago, we truly didnt know a soul when we first moved here. Wayne and Muffy have become like a second family to us! I feel so blessed to be apart of the Quality Music family and thank them for all the support, encouragement and growth they bring to our boys! They are seriously helping grow our boys into better men. Music is such an important gift to give your kids and I just am blown away by the staff here! You will not find a better studio for music and dance I promise!

I love this place and my two grown children also took their lessons when they were in highschool. I've known Wayne for a lot of time. He and his wife plus the staff are very helpful and willing to adjust to everyone's schedule. I highly recommend this place

My children have learned a lot from the various classes and private lessons provided by QMD. The staff excels at creating a great atmosphere for the kids. During the COVID crisis, the staff quickly adjusted with the abrupt restrictions placed on their business and communicated extremely well with all customers on the changes.

My daughter is has been dancing at this studio for 2 years. Her dance instructors, and Mrs. Kathryn & Mrs. Muffy, by far are an absolute pleasure to work with. They are very encouraging, patient, and they consistently have my daughters best interest at heart. They are in constant communication with me regarding their concerns, upcoming events and my daughters progress. A 5 start rating is an understatement. I highly recommend this studio and my daughter feels like they are her second family! QM&D, you guys are rockstars! Keep it up and thank you for all you do!

Extremely friendly staff that quickly changed my daughter's violin string. Very reasonable pricing. If you need instrument repairs in Chesapeake, they should be your first stop.
