Mariann's School of Dance

"We found Mariann’s school of dance through our neighbor. My daughter was invited to try out one of the classes with her friend who was a dancer at the studio. That day changed her life! She now does numerous classes. Her love for dance grows more and more each day! She has also quit her “gymnastics tumbling classes” at her previous gymnastics school, and has enrolled in the Acrobatics class at Mariann's. She has grown and accomplished sooo much more in the little time she’s started compared to her previous gymnastics school. I couldn’t be happier, and prouder then I am with how far she has come in her dance skills, and acrobatic skills in such a little amount of time! She absolutely Loves all of her classes and teachers, and looks forward to them all every week! I couldn’t be happier with this dance studio! It’s super fun, affordable, and most importantly Ms Mariann is there and involved! Always making sure to do what’s best for the dancers, and making sure they’re ok, and really enjoying their classes. Unlike other dance studios I’ve been to where no one even knew who the owner was. If I could rate more than 5 stars I would!"

"We found Mariann's School of Dance when my granddaughter was five and attending Musical Munchkins in a studio there. After every class, Madeline would look at pictures of dancers, especially the ones about her age. At age 5 she was graduating from Musical Munchkins and on the day of graduation, she spent an especially long time looking at each picture of a dancer as if she were memorizing the dancers' faces, because this would be the last time she would see them. At one point, I said to her: "Would you like to take dance lessons?" While still studying a picture, she nodded her head up and down. And so, next fall, Grandma registered her for her first dance class. It has been 11 years now that Madeline has taken dance lessons. She loved it from the first day and still loves it.It has been a gift of love, art, with the bonus of poise. Barbara Djimopoulos"

"Mariann is such an amazing and gentle soul. From the first point of contact, Mariann was beyond welcoming to my daughter and I. I would highly recommend Mariann's School of Dance. My daughter. began dancing at this school when she was 3..we took a break during the pandemic but I am so excited for both my daughters to continue their dance education here! (Now by little one is 4 years old and is ready to follow her sisters dance steps!)"

"Mariann has created a positive space where kids of all ages and levels are inspired to dance. The teachers are not only highly trained, passionate, and challenge the children, they are also warm and compassionate. After trying several dance schools In the area, I feel so lucky to have found them."

"I am a total fan of Mariann’s School of Dance. When we moved back to NJ 8 years ago we visited every studio in the area. After meeting with Mariann my daughter and I chose to enroll here. Mariann has a magical aura and makes every dancer and parent feel welcome and special. The instruction is given by professional, caring teachers who form lasting relationships with their students. The studio has a level of dance for everyone. My daughter worked her way up from a recreational dancer to dancing in the performing company and then to the competition dance team. There are classes in every style of dance, even boys only classes. As a busy parent I appreciate that all information is written in detail so I know what to expect throughout the year in regard to responsibilities, dates and expenses. The facility is brand new and has a large waiting room for parents with color monitors so I can watch the classes. It is also convenient to Route 17, so I can run errands while my daughter is in class. If you are looking for a dance studio for your child, I would highly recommend that you check out Mariann’s School of Dance. The only problem that I have is that my daughter loves it so much she never wants to come home at the end of the day!"
