I have been with Dana’s ever since I first started dancing, and all I can say is that it is an amazing studio. The teachers and staff are so supportive, fun, and caring. While at this studio I have learned so much and I personally feel as if it has boosted my confidence as a person and as a dancer. Can’t say enough about how much I love this studio, it has almost become my second home in itself.

I took dance here for 15 years and know many people, including family, who still take classes. I am still involved with this studio and have seen it grow quickly and wonderfully. The teachers and staff are quality, trained, and educated people that are polite and helpful all the time. Not only is the studio fantastic, but the recitals as well. Everyone works hard to put on an awesome show that runs smoothly. I will always be a fan of Dana’s.

My oldest daughter has taken dance at Dana’s Studio since she was 2.5 and she is now almost 12. As a mom with a dance background, I can tell you that not only is the caliber of teachers and the professionalism from Dana and her staff extremely high, but the quality of the facilities is above and beyond. It is no wonder why the size of the student enrollment continues to grow each and every year. Now, my 3.5 yr old is in her 2nd year at the studio and she LOVES Ms Linda so much. She is so excited every week about going. I can not tell her the night before that we will have dance the next morning b/c she won’t be able to sleep. I have referred friend after friend to the studio without hesitation. And now with 3 locations, I can refer even MORE friends!! Dana is definitely a business savvy person and markets her studio very well. However, if the teachers, staff and facility weren’t top notch, the retention would not happen– but, year after year at recital there are more and more students receiving their 5, 10 & 15 yr awards. That in itself should speak volumes!
We LOVE Dana’s!!!!

I danced at Dana’s Studio for eleven years and have known Dana for much longer. I loved growing up in a studio that valued the whole person. Dana and her staff are kind, caring, and compassionate. In an industry that can over-emphasize the value of being rail-thin, Dana teaches the beauty and value in every dancer, regardless of body type. Technique and performance are certainly a priority, but are not placed before development of the whole dancer. I feel that I received a well-rounded education in many disciplines, and developed confidence both in the studio and in the world. I would recommend this studio to anyone, especially to those with young girls.

lovely studio, very nice people!
Easily accessible, great location
We have tried 2 other dance studios since finding our “dance home” at Dana’s in Keller. My daughters have not only grown as dancers but have grown in their confidence overall. Knowing that my girls are excited to go to dance because they love their teachers is an added bonus. The teachers at this studio truly care about each individual child and it shows. My girls love the entire staff here and have found a family at DSOD-Keller.

If you are thinking of enrolling your child(ren) in dance, let me tell you about my experience with Dana’s. My son took some recreational Hip Hop classes and then at the age of 14 decided he wanted to do all styles of dance. He did not have any experience with Tap, Jazz, Ballet, Lyrical….nothing!! He was nervous entering into an all girls studio (at the time). He was not the model of a dancer. After being evaluated he took “baby” classes along with more advanced classes (in the back of the room) so he could learn as much as he could. The teachers gave him a balance of praise and constructive criticism while constantly encouraging him. Today that dancer is 18 years old and a Senior in high school. He has been accepted (with scholarships) into the dance programs at NYU, PACE, Chapman, and Point Park. He is a product of the teachers and instruction at Dana’s Studio of Dance. Others that he danced with are dancing with Joffrey Ballet, and one has been accepted to Juilliard. The teachers at Dana’s are amazing at what they do!!!
