The Dance Connection of Hillsborough

"My daughter has been with this studio for almost 5 years now! She is absolutely happy! Great place for the kids who love dancing!"

"Mr. David is a wonderful, engaging teacher! Our daughter was quite shy and uncertain her first few classes, but Mr. David gently encouraged her and made sure to include her at whatever level she felt comfortable. She has gained so much confidence and joy in dancing--all thanks to Mr. David!"

"Instructor David is so good with the younger children, he knows their names, he can see what’s holding that child back from the group and gets them all on the same page.. they’re three - it’s an understatement how commendable that is!!"

"My 3 1/2 year old daughter loves to sing and dance and this place didn't disappoint. Mr. David was amazing with the group. My daughter came in to try the class today and she was very shy but Mr. David made it fun and engaging and what I loved was that he didn't push my daughter and he circled back to her to keep her interested. He gave her the attention she needed. Carissa stayed with my daughter the entire class and helped her warm up. She was amazing. We were invited back again to try another class. I would recommend this school to a child just starting out."

"My daughter has been taking ballet with The Dance Connection for several years now. She and I feel like we found our "dance home" here. Every teacher she has danced with has not only been knowledgeable and accomplished but also fun and kind which is very important for cultivating a love of ballet and also the desire to push on. David the owner, an accomplished dancer and also a teacher there always offers a welcoming smile to the children and is always available to the parents. He certainly has a way with children. I remember when my daughter started dancing at his school she hated her tights and refused to go to class filling the waiting area with her screams. David was so gentle and reassuring and managed to get her to pull it together and join the class! All the staff are wonderful as are the families that that share my love of this school. I also want to compliment David and his staff for pushing on despite the COVID pandemic. Dance has never stopped for my daughter. Virtual classes went off without a moments hesitation when the world shut down. He put together a virtual recital in front of a green screen last June! Pretty amazing! Classes picked up on schedule this September. Small classes, social distancing and masks but the dance goes on. I'm so grateful for this little bit of normal and the smile on my daughter's face when she takes off that mask after class and tells me "Mommy that was fun!""
