Courtney Tanner
We have been at DDI for 3 years, and the teachers are exceptional. I highly recommend their ballet program.
Arodi Colvin
My daughter is part of the Ballet Company. I used to dance so I know that the best way to know if a dance school is any good is by watching the ballet company end of year performances. Take a look!
Leon Cooper
"We love Destiny Dance Institute. Our oldest daughter is in the ballet program at destiny and has progressed tremendously. We are excited about the program, the staff and the outstanding teachers. I can't think of any other place for you or your child to dance."
Jennifer Gracias
We like Destiny Dance institute. It has given my 10 year old daughter opportunities to become more confident as a dancer. The teachers are caring and provide help when needed.
Betty Carras
My child is seven years old and takes ballet at Destiny dance. She loves her ballet class. Her teacher is Sara who she just loves. Everyone there is so nice. If your child is sick they do everything they can to re-schedule a makeup class. I highly recommend Destiny Dance Institute.
Tam Gram
Loved their Primrose dance program! It was so convenient to have my little one take lessons during the school day, and we still felt like part if the main dance school. My little one enjoyed learning to dance with Mrs. Patty.
Lara Hill
My daughter has been taking ballet at DDI for the past 4 years, the last 2 of which she was a part of the ballet company. She has worked with Ms. Terry mostly, and has improved dramatically. She has had such a good experience that she is already talking about pursuing dance in college and professionally. I am thrilled that she has chosen dance as her passion, and I have only good things to say about her instruction under Ms. Terry and Ms. Ruth.
Silvia Kramar
My girls are becoming beautiful dancer, thanks to the expertise, patience and dedication of their teachers at Destiny Dance Institute. Every step of the way, they are developing dancers who know their technique so well that they may be able to keep dancing forever, even at a professional level.
DDI has also loved my children like an extended family, and they can't wait to go there every day.
Carla Abreu
DDI is a wonderful studio/academy. My child has improved amazingly in so many ways including her academics. They teach the children the love for the art of dancing but also the hard work it takes to become one. I even took a ballet class and it was great. Love the environment of professionalism and dedication towards each dancer and the families.
Nicole Swanson
I absolutely LOVE Destiny Dance. My daughter has been going there doing hip hop for the last few years. Her teacher, Ms. Kayla, is incredible and the kids LOVE her. Ms Patty the owner is always very helpful and accommodating. We will continue to go to Destiny Dance. There is not another dance studio that I would ever look at to take my daughter to for her classes.
Jenn Krieck
My daughter loves her ballet class, and the teachers have been so good and patient with her.
