I contacted Molly and Sam with a special request for my brownie level Girl Scout troop, who were begging to earn their Dancer badge. The requirements for the badge included 5 steps and my troop wanted to include the fathers/uncles/special adults in the program as well, further complicating my request. Molly and Sam were both incredibly thorough,… prompt, and professional and so friendly and helpful! Sam handcrafted an hour long session to suit our exact needs and the girls were glowing! We had so much fun -- even the adults were laughing and enjoying every moment. We had fathers, uncles

Dancetera is the best studio to grow up at. I've been dancing here since I could walk. It's an amazing family owned business and it's a great place to make long term relationships. I don't know where I would be today if it wasn't for this studio!

I have been dancing here since I could walk. This dance studio was the best choice I could have made. Our dance teacher Ms. Molly is one of the best. She will always help you when you need help, and always has a ear open for you when you need to talk. I love dancing here, and I cannot waiting to have a little girl to dance here one day as well. If you want your daughter to dance just to have fun, this is the place to be. Always full of engery, and Always Positive.!

Being at Dancetera helped me grow as being a dancer . Every year , I learned something new & I enjoy the atmosphere because you are around dancers that never give up or work towards anything . Ms. Molly has honestly been the best dance teacher & of course Sam.
