I absolutely love working here. The dancers and their families are so wholesome, supportive, and encouraging. The owner is compassionate and charismatic. The dance instruction is high quality and age-appropriate, all while still being fun. 10/10 would recommend.

had this to say:
My daughter has danced at A Step Above for four years, and itβs been one of the most positive, impactful parts of her development. Tami goes out of her way to help families, and her teachers have always been knowledgeable and supportive. The studio does a great job of making learning fun through themed days, and invites family members in multiple times per year to observe and participate in classes. Through her dancing journey, my daughter has increased her self esteem, body positivity, perseverance, and teamwork skills. She gets to see positive role models in the older dancers and build lasting friendships with her classmates. I would definitely recommend A Step Above to anyone looking for a dance experience for their child.

I'm so glad we found this studio! My 4 year old loves his tap/ballet class. All of the staff and teachers have been super engaging and helpful.

had this to say:
This is our second year dancing with the studio. My daughters love it and they are very good at teaching and engaging children. We also wish that they would bring back boys hip hop!
Only point of contention was that communication at times was scattered around the rehearsal, especially for the new families.
