I love being a member of PDE because it’s an amazing studio where you truly feel part of a community. Everyone there is like my second family because they are so welcoming and no one is judging anyone else. It’s such a safe place where you can really be yourself and express yourself freely. Every day, after a long day at school, I’m so excited to go to dance class to see my teachers and my friends. The name PDE has a reason. It’s a POSITIVE dance studio and the teachers are there to promote a positive dance experience at all times! I have learned so much with Mrs Chelsea and Ms Amanda as my teachers and I couldn’t be happier to be a part of their team. They push us to be our best, teach us about having good sportsmanship but most importantly, they teach us to love what we do and have fun. In addition to teaching us, they are also our role models and act like mentors whom we can look up to for support, encouragement and just for someone to talk to. I have learned so much from them – particularly how to be confident, respectful, and to be myself always. I can’t say enough great things about PDE and what it has to offer. I am so grateful for the wonderful opportunities I have gained from being a part of this incredible dance group.
