Customer's reviews

I would personally highly recommend Forte Dance Center. Whether your looking for a Recreational, Serious, or even a Competition Style Dance Studio, this place does it all. The staff here teach proper dance technique in a fun way that makes learning a great time. This Studio offers Child Care, classes for both Kids and Adults, and also has a competition team. I’m originally from Ohio and where I grew up, having a studio that had everything was a rare find. It was either a very strict studio for professional dancers, a serious competition only studio, or a studio you went to just for fun. Everyone is very welcoming and I appreciated the fact that from Day 1 they made me feel like I was part of the family. I’m very grateful I found this place and hope if anyone is looking for a studio that feels like Home….they take my advice and give Forte a try ~ David U
I can't say enough positive things about Forté Dance Center. My daughter has been dancing since she was 4 years old and she is now 12, but it wasn't until this year at Forté that I really saw her come out of her shell. She has a renewed passion and excitement for dance that I just didn't see before. Ms. Emily is by far the best teacher that I've ever encountered. She is patient with the kids, upbeat while teaching, and so very encouraging. Mr. Kevin is always there to help with any questions you may have. The two of them together make an amazing team and because of that, the studio runs so smoothly. They offer so many unique opportunities for the dancers to participate in, which my daughter loves. The prices are extremely affordable and the times work perfectly with our busy schedule. My daughter has made so many new friends this year. Forté is much more than just a dance studio, it's a family. We love our Forté fam! ~ Amy B
We LOVE Forte Dance Center! My daughters (5 and 2) take tap, ballet, and acro, and the growth we’ve seen in them since starting has been incredible. The atmosphere is so uplifting and fun — you can feel the joy as soon as you walk in. Miss Emily is AMAZING! Her passion for dance shines through every class, and she has such a special way of connecting with the kids. My girls can’t wait to see her each week! The recitals are wonderfully organized and truly magical to watch. The costumes are absolutely adorable, and everything is done with such care and attention to detail. Even the receptionist is so warm, welcoming, and helpful — it makes every visit such a positive experience. We couldn’t be happier with Forte Dance Center. If you’re looking for a dance studio that’s passionate, joyful, and nurturing, this is the place! 💖🩰✨ ~ Laura S
