My daughter has grown so much as a person, dancer and friend since we started with Forte. I highly recommend if you want your child to have an overall amazing experience

My daughter had never danced formally before coming to Forte. She always wanted to dance but we moved so much, she wasn’t able to dance. She was self-taught on Youtube. Forte Channahon was her first dance home before transitioning to the Morris campus. She made friends there. She got to try new dance styles and learn what she wanted to do with her dance career. Forte Channahon helped her dance career take off! It’s one of two campuses, which I love for families who don’t have to drive as far to go to one dance class.

I love every single everything about Forte Arts Center. The love and support each dancer gets; not only in instruction to strive to improve technique, learn new things, but also; emotionally, mentally, with encouragement to lead and be a good productive citizen who is inclusive with compassion for others. Lift each other up!!!
As a side note Felicia and Cathey are the best front end duo, maybe a bit WILD but The Roaring good shoe fitter, Jana is keeping them in line on this first open house night!!! 💜💜💜

We have had a wonderful experience at Forte Arts Center. Unfortunately the previous studio we attended closed and we were in for a huge transition. When looking into local studios, Forte checked all of the boxes we were looking for. The staff are so accommodating and make sure we are adjusting well to the new studio and all of the new experiences. We are so happy to be part of the Forte family and look forward to the next 4 years with them.

Forte Arts Center is my family's home away from home. As a mom, there is no place I would rather send my children for their dance and tumbling instruction. My boys have been a part of Forte for 8 years. They have grown so much in their dance and tumbling skills but more importantly, they have grown in social skills, confidence, and character. Everyone knows their name and is excited to see and greet them with a warm smile every time they enter the building. They always look forward to seeing their teachers and have created lasting bonds of friendship with their classmates. Forte for life! :)

It's so much more than a dance studio. Forte is a family. They support parents as well as the students. They care about the dancers far beyond dance. My 12 year old daughter said randomly "I love Forte because they do a lot more than just teach dance. When nothing in life is going ok it's a place you can always go to feel happy". Kids say it best.

Amazing dance studio. Miss Brittany is such a great dance teacher. So positive. My daughter absolutely adores Miss Rachal too. Both teachers are so good with kids. They focus on the positives and make it a great experience for my daughter. Everyone at the studio is fabulous. Brynlee just loves it at Forte!!!

Forté went above and beyond to accommodate our daughter and we wanted to extend our gratitude! She was going to miss out on her recital show due to a previous conflict that we were not able to rearrange. Not only were they able to switch her class location, but her dance and costume stayed the same. She’s able to dance with Forté on a separate recital day that works with our schedule! Super bonus all around!

All the support staff at the front desks from both Channahon and Morris were beyond helpful, as well as reassuring that they would help solve our problem. They quickly got back to us with what we could do moving forward! Our daughter’s new teacher was super welcoming and understanding about adding a new dancer to mix.

I’m proud that my daughter dances here! Thank you to everyone (and I mean everyone, we had a whole team helping us out!) that worked with us to ensure our daughter could dance on the stage in her first recital!

Thank you Jana for this year in hip hop with Carley L and your input for next year recommendations. This was her 7th year in dance, 4th year at Forte and 1st year in hip hop. I appreciate all the time and effort you put into class every week and all the preparation for recital. Carley walked out of your class every week with a smile on her face and expressed how much fun she had! She really enjoyed your class and loves dance! Enjoy your summer! Hope to see you in season 31!

This is my daughters first season at Forte and she has absolutely fallen in love with dance. The instructors are all amazing. They are kind, caring, and absolutely wonderful. They make sure every single child is included and feels welcomed! Forte feels like a home away from home. Everyone is friendly and that includes the staff and other parents. I have watched my daughter grow and learn so much in the past year of her taking classes.
