Creative Steps Dance Studio

★★★★★Gizem Nemutlu

We are so grateful for Creative Steps Dance Studio, specifically the directors and our teacher, Ms Sophia! My son has special needs and sometimes exhibits challenging behaviors, but they always welcomed him with patience, kindness, and genuine inclusion. Over the years, I learned that inclusion is not done by following definitions; teachers must have the heart to love kids and their differences! This is how Ms Sophia approaches my son. She created a space where he feels seen, supported, and excited to dance each week. It means so much to me as a parent to see him celebrated for who he is, and to be part of such a positive, encouraging community. Ms Sophia and the directors go above and beyond to make dance accessible and joyful for every child.

Both of my daughters have been attending since they were 3 years old. We love the Studio, Miss. Michelle and all of the teachers and staff! As we wind up another great year of dance lessons and an amazing recital, my girls are already looking forward to starting classes again in the fall.

Our daughter has danced with Creative Steps for the past 12 years. We highly recommend this dance school because they focus on and listen to their students thereby addressing their every need. The teachers are passionate about dance and patient with all dancers from toddlers to teens. Year to year, we have see the growth in dance technique with our daughter. Miss Michelle accommodates her students as best she can, and listens to feedback from parents. She also communicates any and all changes in a timely manner. Rehearsal and recitals are quite organized and no hassle on parents or students. And there’s no question that they choose the best costumes and routines. If we had to choose again, we’ll always choose Creative Steps.

My kids have tried several different locations for dance class, but have finally found their home at Creative Steps! Why? Because it's about joy. Ms. Michelle has created a low-stress, highly flexible environment that is well-organized and fun! The idea of dance class can be intimidating, but Creative Steps is the opposite of intimidating - they are completely inclusive and transparent about what the kids are learning, and offer opportunities for performance that my kids look forward to. Ms. Michelle takes families' needs into account for scheduling, and offers plenty of options for kids of all ability levels. My kids have enjoyed their dance classes and have also enjoyed the summer program and pop-up mini-camps. It's a place they are happy and get to explore new things, and I couldn't ask for more than that. I'm so thankful we found this studio!

My 9 year old is on year 5 at Creative Steps, and we have never felt the need to go anywhere else. The flexible and fun environment lets kids be who they are. The director, Michelle, has always been so accomodating, letting my daughter switch to different classes as needed. I also appreciate that there is no dance attire requirement, as this does not work for all kids. On top of all that, the teachers are fantastic, and I have loved seeing my daughter learn, grow, and become more confident as a dancer.
