We have been at DDI for 3 years, and the teachers are exceptional. I highly recommend their ballet program.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Our experience with Destiny Dance Institute has been very positive. We moved here from Maryland, and checked out a number of dance studios before deciding on DDI. The owner takes great care to make sure that the classes, performances, and costumes are family-friendly and appropriate. The instruction is top-notch and most importantly, fun for our girls.

Whatever concerns that we've expressed to the owner, she has responded and we've come away feeling like our concerns were heard *and* acted upon. We've found the staff and even a number of the customers to be approachable, friendly, and incredibly helpful.

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.

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.

I can club program was a blessing for our family. I don’t trust anybody with my children yet the staff at destiny dance is so special and caring that I immediately felt that my daughter was safe and loved from day one.

I can’t say enough great things about DDI and their ‘I Can Club’ preschool program. My daughter started the I Can Club when she was 3 - she was very shy and extremely attached to me. Two years later, she just graduated the Pre-K program and it is truly remarkable how confident she has become and how much she has learned in those short 2 years. She is more than ready for Kindergarten, but more importantly she LOVED the school, the experience, especially the teachers. Ms. Sarah and Ms. Michelle are amazing!! They make the school day so much fun and incorporate learning in a very loving and nurturing environment for the kids. And they send a ton of pictures which I loved. The program also includes dance classes (the dance teachers are amazing too!) and they hold recitals for the parents twice a year which was so fun for all. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you DDI for this amazing program! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A Thoughtful Transition For Developing Dancers

Clarity Without Pressure

Pre-Company gives dancers structure and direction without overwhelming schedules or expectations. Students experience a higher level of focus while maintaining balance with school and family life.

Faculty-Guided Placement

Enrollment is by instructor selection to ensure dancers are ready for the pace, focus, and responsibility of the class. This creates an environment where students feel supported, not rushed.

Purposeful Class Experience

Classes emphasize consistency, detail, and performance quality, helping dancers understand what elevated study looks like before committing to pre-professional pathways.

Understanding What Comes Next

A Clear Step Forward In Your Dance Journey

Pre-Company helps dancers experience what it feels like to take class with greater focus and intention. Students begin to understand expectations around preparation, follow-through, and consistency, while still learning in a supportive environment. This class allows dancers to explore whether they enjoy a more committed class experience before deciding on future pathways.

Learning How To Show Up With Focus And Confidence
What Dancers Experience In Class

Pre-Company classes are focused, engaging, and designed to help dancers feel more confident in how they show up to class. Students learn full routines, practice staying present and prepared, and begin to understand what it means to take ownership of their work. Over time, dancers gain stronger focus, greater confidence, and a clearer sense of responsibility—both in class and beyond the studio.

A Class For Dancers Ready To Step Forward
Who Pre-Company Is For

Pre-Company is for dancers who enjoy being focused in class and want to challenge themselves in a more intentional setting. Students are expected to come prepared, stay engaged, and take responsibility for their progress. Placement is determined by instructors to ensure dancers feel supported, confident, and ready for the expectations of the class.

Pre-Company involves additional class commitment, but schedules are designed to remain manageable and age-appropriate.
