TESTIMONIALS

My girls have been dancing at In Step for two years now. We chose In Step over other local studios because it felt like home walking in. We loved the smaller classes, individual attention, and the quality of the instructors. At the beginning of the second year, and her first year on the Apprentice Company, I noticed a change in my older daughter. She had gone from the shy, self conscious one to someone who volunteers for leadership opportunities, and doesn’t mind the spotlight at all. Her self confidence has greatly increased and she is more outgoing. I attribute it to her dancing at In Step. My girls love their dance classes and dance teachers, they look forward to classes each week and want to take more and more classes. We are looking forward to many more years at In Step and I can’t wait to see even more personal growth in my girls. - J


Dana,

I want to thank you for 6 great years of instruction for Julia. Starting out as a precocious 3 year old who liked to see her reflection in the television when off while she danced, to the dancer she has become today, has been so rewarding to watch.

When you asked me if I would consider having her join Pre-Company I remember telling you she had no talent. You saw something in her and believed that you could bring it out and I must say you have! Julia can’t wait to get to the studio every day to practice or attend class. She even goes when she doesn’t have to! I asked her why she went to the studio on her days off and she said it was to practice her turns and routines so she could better herself.

The dedication and perseverance she has learned from you and your teachers she will be able to use for a lifetime. I thank you for being a second mother to her and teaching her these life skills, and others, that I also implement at home. Being a working mother and leaving Julia with someone else every day to raise has always been a concern but together I have faith that she will turn out just fine!

The love and commitment that I see you give to all of your students amazes me. How you juggle a business, marriage, motherhood, and a plethora of “daughters and sons” who come in and out of your life daily is beyond me. I know there are other mothers who feel the same way I do.

Julia is excited about starting her 7th year with you this fall and even more excited to be on Junior Company! It has been her dream since Pre-Company to be with the big girls and now she is. I know you will push her to be the best she can be. She adores and worships you (and the other teachers – but you the most!) and talks about how she too will open a studio one day. Of course this is after she has danced on Broadway!

Thank you again.
Regards,
Laura Leno


Our daughters have been taking classes at In Step Dance and Performing Arts for the last six years.  We chose this studio because the classes are small and the caliber of the instructors is excellent.  The teachers here are trained and certified in dance and continue to personally develop their skills so they stay fresh and up to date.  We liked that they know each child in the class, and work to develop each of them individually.  The personal touch shown at In Step is excellent!  Our girls have learned how to dance with proper technique, in an atmosphere that has high standards, teaches good values, and is kind and fostering. As they have grown older, and have had more opportunities to dance with other students from around Texas and around the country, we are very pleased with how well taught and how well prepared our daughters are.  They take classes with fabulous teachers in house, and have the opportunity provided by In Step to take classes with guest teachers from all over the country, many of whom are premier dance teachers in the industry.  Our daughters are very, very happy at In Step.

To the staff of In-Step Dance & Performing Arts:

We would like to extend a sincere thank you to the staff of In-Step Dance & Performing Arts. As with most parents we initially started our child off in dance at a studio which was convenient to our home. After five years of faithful participation, we felt and frankly, observed other children our daughters’ age which were much further advanced in capabilities showing up at competitions all coming from this In-Step studio in The Woodlands. Once we actually took a serious look at the program offered at In-Step, we quickly realized our child could be exposed to a much more structured and professional level of instruction than we had previously experienced elsewhere.

In making the transition to In-Step we have watched our child grow into a wonderful dancer, with a tremendous level of self-confidence. In-Step not only provides our daughter with a strong level of dance technique, but also emphasizes strong personal skills such as respect, confidence, and a strong desire to do well in other aspects of life. In-Step has truly helped enrich our daughters’ life, and we are very pleased we found such a wonderful place for our child.

Respectfully,
Sheldon & Toni Carr


Dear Ms Dana

I was so impressed with the musical theatre and acting class.  Hope and all the kids had a Blast! 
and My son so enjoyed his hipHop class as well.  This was his first time to dance and he had a
great time. 
Thank you,
Erin Heil

Dear Ms Dana and Dancers:

First of all, I share with you  that I thank God for giving me an opportunity of being with all of you for
the Dance Workshop back in August.  I had a great time, and I hope that all of you shared the same
feeling and energy as I did.
Ms Dana, thank you for all your kindness, generosity and enthusiasm.  From the very start, you made me feel right at
home.  It was refreshing and a pleasure to be there and to teach hip-hop at your studio.  You, and everything that represents your studio are a CLASS ACT !
 
Thanks again
Yours Truly,
Patrick "Pat-y-o" Otero
