My daughter has danced at Alderwood Dance Spectrum since she was 3 1/2 years old. She is now 10 and so this our 7th year. We couldn't be happier with what dancing and performing year after year has done for our daughter. There is something definitely different about the way she carries herself than other girls her age, there is an awareness of music and moving her body that has become integrated into her academic interests. The support and encouragement of all the different teachers has been so wonderful and as a parent having different teachers invest in my child is priceless. In addition to my daughter's dancing, I work out there now as well. Why just sit around and wait for an hour, when you can Zumba! Finally, the director of the school, Miss Sue, makes each child feel valued, important, and respected, and makes sure they each know what they achieved by the end of each years' recital. The location could not be more convenient.
