  Our daughter has been attending Allegro Dance Studio on for the past 3 years and enjoys the environment, instructors and competitive program. Manuela does an amazing job overseeing the scheduling, coordination and overall quality of the programs delivered and is always responsive and accommodating to the needs of parents. Allegro really creates an environment and community of family and all of dance instructors are highly skilled, engaged and passionate for the development, enjoyment and success of all the students.

  Great school, amazing professional instructors and dancers. My daughter has been going to Allegro for 4 years now and she is enjoying every session of it. Fun yet totally professional environment. Great weekly schedule for all classes. Their competetive program is also amazing. You get updated on everything on a regular basis. They run dance camps all year round and very accomodating to parents. I can go on and on but why not go see for yourself. My daughter has become a huge fan of all dances she would want to attend every class each semester if she had time. Thank you Allegro team.

  This will be our 3rd year with Allegro in the competitive dance program and I've seen huge growth and development. Technically speaking, my daughter went in with no experience and can now do many acro tricks, learn choreography, and shine on stage. As a parent of a shy child, it has been really encouraging to see her develop her confidence through dance. The teachers are really patient and knowledgeable. They really emphasize on how it’s a team effort for the group dances. And for solos/duets, the teachers create a custom-fit routine that highlights their strengths & abilities. Most of our routines this year were completed before the year end with sufficient time to fine-tune the dances before the Spring when competition season starts. They have so many opportunities to practice and perform before competitions that by the time competitions come, it is purely muscle memory. A frequent comment from the judges about our studio is that the dances are clean and that’s because of all the fine-tuning that happens during class. The competitive dance world is overwhelming as a first-time parent. We really appreciate the parent meetings, hair and make up tutorials, and detailed communication on what to expect going into competition season. The studio sends out competition dates in the fall so parents can book time off to accommodate. On top of that are monthly newsletters highlighting any special events and key reminders. I’ve seen my daughter develop strong friendships through this and can’t wait to see how her dance journey unfolds. Thank you Allegro Team!

  This dance studio really was one of the best I’ve been to out of the many studios.The teachers there helped me improve most my skills and techniques with in the year. Being on their competitive team was also really fun and an amazing experience with the other dancers. Even though some of the people there probably dislike me, I feel like most of the dancers there is really welcoming and kind. About the space, I think that the studio is really clean and I love how they decorated it. Thank you so much allegro for giving me a wonderful time.

  My daughter has been attending Allegro Dance School and is now in her second year. Last year, she competed in two dances, and this year she’s up to five! She has not once complained about having to go to dance lessons, because she loves all the girls that she dances with, as well as the instructors. I would highly recommend Allegro Dance School to anyone thinking of getting their child into dance, or even transitioning from recreational to competitive. All of the dancers and instructors handle themselves with kindness and grace at all competitions.
