The Next Step Dance Studio

"Can’t think of a better place to find your love for dance and also create friendships that will last a lifetime. The strong community is something that particularly stands out to me. I always felt a strong sense of support, kindness, and motivation from other classmates and teachers. I can’t thank Lori and all other staff members enough for everything they’ve done for us throughout the years. A top tier dance studio!"

"My daughter has loved dancing at Next Step! Not only has she learned technique in a variety of dance genres, she continues to acquire important life skills in a variety of areas: confidence, composure, leadership, organization and time management. Most importantly, she has forged life-long friendships. Lori and all the teachers at Next Step do an excellent job of creating a positive and nurturing environment for all the dancers. It is so sweet to watch the older girls taking care of and supporting the younger ones, and to see the younger kids cheering on and looking up to the older crew. Lots of fun, bonding opportunities for the kids. It was especially amazing that Lori kept our kids safely dancing through Covid!"

"My time at Next Step was absolutely incredible. I was on competitive teams and senior lines for 5 years and couldn’t have had a better experience. My friends from Next Step are still close to me today and I treasure the relationships and friendships I built at the studio more than anything. Lori and Rachel taught me so much about not only technique and improving my dance skills, but also about working hard and helping others improve. I wouldn’t take back a second of my time at Next Step as it was truly such a special time in my life because of the fun and energetic atmosphere of every single class that challenged me to work my hardest and perform my best on every stage."

"My 3 year old daughter Hailey loves going to her Tippy Toes dance class. She asks me everyday if she gets to go to dance. Lori has come up with a great protocol during these Covid times that makes the kids and parents comfortable and she has great communication with us parents."

"My 4 year old daughter is in her second year of the beginner class Tippy Toes, and we both continue to absolutely love it. She is learning proper dance terms and technique with some arts and crafts and goodies mixed in. She loves going! Lori has done a wonderful job adapting to Covid and safely providing dance opportunities. Highly recommend!"
