The teachers at Ascend are very kind and helpful! I was so happy to find a group wiling to take carful measures during the pandemic but also a group who truly value the individuals they are working with! Their 3-4 yr old program has not only been fun for my daughter, but it has also taught her skills and technique all through play. This is more than just a fun dance class. They are teaching skills that can be carried over to many other moments in life, like how to be a part of a group, waiting your tun, leaning from each other, trying something new etc. Thank you for this wonderful program!

My thirteen year old has been dancing with Ascend since they opened up. After her previous studio closed due to covid, we moved to this studio. She already had experience with some of the teachers from her previous studio. When covid was at its peak, they did a great job of creating a safe environment for the students.This isn’t just a dance studio to her. It’s a second family. The staff truly care about the students and want them to succeed. They do a great job of teaching them to be mentors as they grow older to the younger levels. My dancer has some amazing role models at this studio. This is our first year dancing with the completion team and they did a great job of making it a smooth transition for my dancer.

Excellent training. My daughter danced with Ascend since they opened their doors, but also danced with many of the teachers for years before Ascend was created. We just love the staff. Recently we moved out of state and needed to find a new studio. After one class at a new studio, the new instructor complemented my daughter on how well trained she is and what great pointe work she has. As a mom, I’m on cloud nine, but it is all due to the training she received from the teachers and owners of Ascend Dance Academy. 100% go to Ascend.

I cannot speak more highly of Ascend Dance Academy. My daughter has progressed leaps and bounds since moving to Ascend. The teachers are truly at the top of their game and it shows through all of their students. They put the time and effort into teaching the principles of dance allowing a deeper connection and understanding for the dancers. Their love for dance show through everything the do from their studio design, to curriculum, to safety protocols. Thank you Ascend for everything you do to support our children and for pushing them to achieve their potential.

My daughter started dancing at Ascend when her studio shut down last year due to Covid. The staff and owners are amazing and really do care for their dancers and will go above and beyond to help them reach their goals. If you want superior quality for your dancer, check them out!

Our daughter (who is currently 6) has been going to this dance studio since they opened up last year. Since opening up during the pandemic they have kept everyone's health and safety in mind while still maintaining a fun dance atmosphere. She loves Mrs. Kristina's class and enjoys going every week! Everyone in the studio is friendly and I love the family vibe the studio has.

We love Ascend Dance Academy! The teachers and staff are phenomenal and my daughter has grown leaps and bounds since we started there. They offer a variety of classes, competition and multiple performance opportunities. It is a second home for my daughter. It has been a clean and safe environment during Covid and I feel 100% safe sending my daughter. They also offer the option for zoom classes if you prefer. Seeing her fire reignite under the direction of their talented staff and loving owners has been incredible to watch. Looking forward to continuing our dance journey at Ascend.

I am loving this little dance studio! My 2.5 year old started last fall and she always looks forward to class every week. This class is perfect for little kids to move their bodies and get some dance time. Very clean and professional as well.

I absolutely love Ascend Dance Academy. My daughter (now 4) has been coming here since they opened during the pandemic. This place is clean, all the ladies (Rachel, Kristina, Payton, and so on) are so friendly and welcoming, prices for dance are very reasonable, and on top of all that they doing amazing work with the little ones. my daughter was very shy and quite but now opens up when she gets to dance and the ladies always make the time to comfort the littles when they have big feeling. We plan on telling all our friends from school about the dance academy and the new dance season coming up.

Thank you Ascend Dance for a great year, and we can’t wait for the new season

Highly Recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨
We do not know where we would be without this studio, as they have gone above and beyond to make sure that their students have had ALL of the creative opportunities possible to dance safely and grow during this pandemic.
Choosing this studio for our two daughters has been one of the best decisions we’ve made. Even the older students in the advanced programs have been the best kind of “influencers” for our young daughters. Which speaks highly to the type of relationship building and promotion of self confidence the students demonstrate, on top of being exceptionally talented dancers.

The teachers in this studio are beautiful from the inside out and they genuinely connect & encourage each child’s development.
Our daughters love to dance, and are literally growing by leaps and bounds physically and as individuals at Ascend Dance Academy.
Not to mention, the music is outstanding! I sometimes wish they would let the parents join in when we drop them off. The facility and staff are top notch! 😊

I started lessons for my 4 year during covid. I have felt safe in this studio the entire time and the Ascend staff has made the studio safe for my dancer. I have enjoyed watching her progress through zoom which has been available to parents so that dance can remain safe. The staff is so professional and friendly and knowledgeable about dance. Whenever I have asked for feedback they were willing and prepared. We love Ascend.

We are go grateful and happy with Ascend Dance Academy. We put our granddaughter in Pre-Ballet class and she has come out of her shell. She LOVES to dance and loves her teacher Ms. Kristina.
The entire staff are so friendly and helpful no matter the issue. Our granddaughter loves going to dance every week. She also likes to "practice" at home what she learns every time.
If you are looking for a great class for your kiddos, we highly recommend Ascend Dance Academy, they have all sorts of classes to chose from not just ballet.

I cannot say enough good things about Ascend Dance Academy. The teachers are incredibly talented and their dedication to their dancers really shows. I love that they know my daughters by name, know me by name, and take the time to talk to us in the lobby or help fix ballet buns as they fall apart. This isn’t your normal dance studio, it will become your dancers second home!

We love everything about Ascend Dance Academy. I have two daughters enrolled- one in the sprout program and another in leap. The teachers are amazing, kind, and incredibly dedicated to their dancers. The facility is welcoming and spacious. I enjoy being able to watch my daughters through zoom or attend a class virtually if needed.

We love Ascend Dance Academy! The teachers are excellent, involved, and professional. The staff is great with communication and has done a wonderful job through the COVID pandemic keeping our dancers safe and healthy. We loved that the owners accompanied our daughter to the store to get her first pair of pointe shoes. Such a personalized touch! We can’t say enough great things about this dance studio. Our daughter loves dancing there and we are pleased with how everything runs so smoothly.
