Report
East Coast Edge in Ashburn is fantastic!!! My girls have taken dance at too many places to mention, and they both lost interest after the first few lessons. There was nothing special to engage them. My daughter is taking a musical theater dance class at ECE, and she can't wait for class day every week. I have seen a side to her that I never knew existed. They have a wide variety to choose from, and classes are small. The instructors make the kids feel like they're special, whether they are recreational or competition dancers.
