I took my 3 year old for a trial class and she had a great time. The staff was very professional and took the time out to show us around the studio and answer all questions. My daughter is very timid but the coaches took her by the hand and made her feel welcome in an already established class. Prices are also super reasonable in comparison to other dance studio in the area. Highly recommend!

I just joined the adult beginner hip hop class this year with Joss and I’ve been having the best time so far! I am new to dancing but everyone has been so welcoming and kind and helpful. And Joss is super fun and does a great job of making you feel like there’s no pressure and to just do your best and have a great time! So glad I found this place and have been recommending it to everyone!

They’re the real deal. Walked into a class and was amazed by how well the instructor (Joss) kept the energy up while still taking time to clarify moves for anyone who needed it. Excellent choreography and warm up as well! Front desk and staff are just as awesome!

I reached out to Stage Door after seeing their advertisement on the back of a playbill. They responded right away with a text and phone call. Everything was explained. The price for the summer program is great. I can't wait to hear what my goddaughter has to say about it . I signed her up for two different classes.

I had never taken a dance class before in my life, but was vaguely curious about ballet, because it seems such a graceful and elegant art.

I am SO glad I called Stage Door and asked about the adult ballet class.

I was going to put attending off until summer, but Ms. Sophia on the phone encouraged me to push past my shyness, and just do a free trial week.

This was wonderful advice, because I was able to attend class the next week, and begin my own ballet journey under Ms. Stephanie. She was super supportive and encouraging of me, despite the fact that I have two left feet!

The experience was overall exceedingly positive for me, and I highly recommend any other adults out there who are looking to dip their feet into casual dance to give Stage Door a call!

The dance school is Beautiful and everyone is so friendly and accommodating. When you arrive for the first time, they give you a complete tour of the school and tell you their story and history. The rooms are NYC themed and make you feel like you’re somebody!☺️

Love this place. Been a part of the stage door family since my daughter was 6 and she's 16 now and wouldn't dance anywhere else. From kids to adult classes the whole team is so amazing and the dancers are amazing as well. Go take a trial class you'll never want to leave. I started taking adult hip hop and love it even more. The energy from the other adult dancers is amazing and I love that I see some of the staff dancing as well. Come join us for a amazing experience. From adult tap to ballet to jazz and hip hop whatever you choose they have a level for you. No better time to start then now!!!

SDSD I’d the absolute best all around dance studio! Their competition level dancers get incredible training and get accolades at the competitions they attend. They offer a wide variety of dance, so every child can find a style of dance they love. They also offer classes geared towards kids with special needs and have student volunteers to shadow the kids 1:1 and build a beautiful relationship in the process. They have a variety of adult dance classes too! The studio is state of the art and gorgeous. The staff are friendly and helpful. Mary, the owner, and all the teachers are simply the best!

Everyone was so friendly and made my step daughter feel so comfortable and excited to start her dance journey. We look forward to all she will accomplish and learn at Stage Door. Highly recommend this dance school!

At the "ripe old" age of 14 my daughter just had her first dance recital (having spent her energy mostly in theater), which I didn't think could happen given that she was so late to the party and most kids dance from age 2! She first took a Broadway dance class at Stage door geared for beginners and she loved it- it was easy enough for a beginner but definitely pushed her comfort zone and challenged her. Then she took Hip Hop production over the summer culminating in an outdoor show and she loved every minute of it. The teachers were amazing and she looked forward to every class and came out feeling confident, choosing to practice at home and never having to be told. Kudos to Stage Door for their inclusivity and for making dance accessible to all, and a beautiful studio to boot. Highly recommend their programs.

We love Stage Door so much. As soon as we walked in for a tour last year, we were blown away with how amazing the vibe was inside. We have been to many dance studios and this one is by far the nicest. My daughter is 7 and is taking a hip hop class with Miss Stephanie P. Miss Steph is absolutely terrific. She is always high energy and is so nice! My daughter has been loving it here!

Stage Door School of Dance has been our daughter’s dance home since she was 18 months old. We entrust this studio with her dance education because it is owned and operated by a family of dancers who really want to share the art of dance with children, and have been doing so since 1976. If you are looking for a true dance education this is your place. One of my favorite things about Stage Door is that its current owner, Mary Giattino, has surrounded herself with some of the best of the best teachers in every genre. She has taken the legacy her mother built before her and really expanded on that love for dance with a new state of the art facility, along with well rounded teachers who not only teach dance, but also are mentors for a child’s whole self. Our daughter is excited to go to class, has made many lasting friendships, and is really being taught a variety of dance styles while also learning a new dance language. If you want your child to learn the true foundation and principles of dance, then Stage Door School of Dance is the place to be. We are a proud SDSD family and cannot thank Ms. Mary enough for helping to pass her love for dance, true meaningful from the soul dance, onto our daughter. ♥️🖤

Our tiny dancer was told she would never be able to walk let alone dance due to a medical diagnosis. She now is on the competition team and dances her heart out both at the studio and at home. We wouldn’t be where we are today without of course her medical team and her dance teachers. We are forever grateful ❤️ for Stage Door School of Dance.

I went here last Saturday for a trial for a “parent and me” class to start my daughter in. I was greeted immediately and given a tour around the whole studio before the class started. EVERYONE is soooo super nice who works here, and so accommodating. I knew that if my daughter liked the class (which she did) I would sign her up for the official classes for the future. The instructor was great and very pleasant to be around. This is a great dance studio and I’m so thrilled to start this journey with her!

My daughter is fairly new to Stage Door. Still I can honestly say that the vibe there is what sold me. The staff is so nice. The nice young woman Sophia that helped me register my daughter was such a nice young woman. She even reached out to the Teacher that runs the Special Needs classes on Saturdays. My son is gonna go in for a trial run soon. I can not wait to finally take my son somewhere his sister goes and he has a place to fit in as well🥰.
My daughter loves it there. The instructor quickly broke her out of her shell and got her moving around. From the outside off of sunrise hwy it is very deceiving! It looks like it's this small little studio. Then you drive around back. When you walk in you'll be impressed. I look foward to watching my daughter flourish.

My girls have been going to Stage Door since they were 2 1/2 and 1 1/2 years old. They are now 12 and 15!! This studio is a family to them. My one daughter had the privilege of taking tap from the owner Mary. My favorite thing about the class was she started it by asking each student to think of one positive thing that happened from the day. If the kid thought of nothing but negative she knew how to turn it into a positive. What an inspiration!

This is our first time trying out dance. Our daughter is 7 and into hip hop. When we walked in we were welcomed immediately and pleasantly surprised with the modern decor and cleanliness of the building. The lounge area is very comfortable and also has a TV to view the dance classes.. Ms. Sophia was our tour guide, she was more than welcoming and made us feel even more excited to participate in dance. The building is very easy to navigate. They have a sweet swag and snack shop and an area for homework. The bathrooms were clean with a separate dressing room. This may have been our trial but we were immediately hooked. Looking forward to lots of dance and fun becoming part of the Stage Door School of Dance.

My daughter had been dancing with Stage Door since she was about 3. When we moved to the north shore she decided to try something different and got into ice skating for a few years, so we took a break from dance. Make a long story short, she wanted to try dance again and after looking for places of near convenience between pricing and class schedules conflicting with after school sports we ultimately went back to our home at Stage Door. It’s a 30 minute drive but there’s honestly nowhere else I would have her dance. Their new facility is outstanding, with many dance rooms accommodating to different dance styles with wrap around seating for every parent/sibling/caretaker to sit and the best part to me are the multiple TV’s in which you can get a great view of your child during class. No fighting over tiny TVs or peeking through windows or doors here! I also think it’s great that the recital is optional as I can understand how some would not want to perform publicly. The staff are so friendly and professional and as long as my daughter loves to dance this is where she will be!

My niece just started at this dance school, and I'm beyond impressed. The front desk staff went above and beyond to make the enrollment process seamless. The welcoming atmosphere immediately put us at ease. The interior design is top-notch, exuding a level of professionalism you'd expect from a high-end office. It's clear that they prioritize creating a positive and comfortable environment. Kudos to the team for making our experience so enjoyable!

My kids started Stage Door School of Dance this summer. My sons had registered for the hip hop class with Joss Guitierrez. My daughters took Leap & Turn class with Jillian Guido. They had a blast! Mary the owner is wonderful and approachable. The staff is courteous and always make you feel welcome. I am also pleased with SDSD studio size, appearance, modern appeal and cleanliness. I also love the fact that they have large screens outside the studio rooms for parents to view their kids in the dance rooms. I find this to be an extra bonus for parents. For those reasons, I decided to register my kids for the fall and continue my kids dance journey at SDSD.

I came in later during my dance career and this studio helped me bring my passion for dance back after it being knocked down from a previous studio. The teachers are so sweet and so professional and when your watching the recital it’s like watching a Broadway show. Every year the costumes are amazing and they’ll immediately put you in the class with your correct age. The competition team is amazing and every dance they do brings me to tears.This place is so amazing and I suggest this place to anyone who wants to try dance out. They’ll accept anyone!!! Love the Stagedoor friends that I’ve made❤️
