Deborah MacKay School of Dance

"You know a place is special when a second generation of dancers join the DMSOD family! I danced at Deborah MacKay as a child and was thrilled to enroll my daughter in preschool classes in 2014. Nine years later, and the poise, confidence, technique and artistry that my daughter exudes through dance is wonderful. She can't get enough of dance and being at the studio and she loves her teachers and demonstrators. Miss Debbie has created a supportive, family-like atmosphere at her studio where love of dance is celebrated and performances are well-executed and beautiful to watch. We love this studio!"

"DMSOD is a positive and comfortable environment for dancers of all ages. The teachers are focused on helping you reach your highest potential both as a dancer and a person. I spent an influential 14 years at the studio, and I will continue to make it a priority to attend the spring recital every year!"

"Just finished up our older daughter's 3rd year of dance and our younger daughter's 2nd and they're already looking forward to starting up again in the Fall! Not growing up dancing myself and not having any friend's children dance in Webster I chose Deborah McKay's School based on proximity to our home and feel like I scored the jackpot for my children. Miss Debbie and all of her teachers are passionate, kind and patient with little ones just starting out. My family and I can't rave enough about how amazing the end of year recitals are. It is obvious all of the hard work and creativity that goes into the show. Seeing the progression of the dancers each year has me excited to watch my children grow with this school. Miss Debbie provides a trajectory for dancers that can lead to college and beyond if the dancers choose. I recommend the dance camps for children wanting to dip their toes into something fun for a few days too!"

"We’re so fortunate to be part of the DMSOD family. My daughter started dancing in 6th grade and was welcomed having no prior experience. The environment is incredibly supportive and friendly- it’s the right place for her to be. 6 years later, she’s still dancing with great teachers and valuable friends."

"My daughter has danced at DMSOD since she started dancing 7 years ago. I can’t say enough about this studio. Debbie (the owner) knows every parent and dancer and and puts on a beautiful recital every year. The teachers are amazing and genuinely love working with the dancers. The older dancers are phenomenal role models to the younger ones. The choreography is always so well done and every year I always say these are the best costumes yet. My daughter feels like she is part of a family at DMSOD and so do I. The skills she learning and the role models she has will help shape her into a strong and confident adult."
