Since this studio has opened and Miss Charyl has added ballet and technique to our daughters dance schedule we have seen unbelievable steps/leaps forward. More importantly, everyone is a Star at TDC. Charyl and the other instructors care about each kid that they work with. Every dancer has a chance to shine.
