Hi Natalia,
I would like especially to thank all your Ballet team, Ms. Rio, Ms. Melissa and yourself, and also Pat and Monique, for your support, dedication and energy to get the girls ready for the ABT exams. You have been able to develop incredible improvement, and inspire passion of dance, friendship and team spirit. I am proud you gave Helene the opportunity to be part of the advanced ballet group. Thanks a lot.

Regards,
Freddie

Hi Natalia,
I have to compliment your program and style...I love that you take the time to do this year end evaluation...I know that you offer a quality program in terms of instruction and teacher quality which is why I have chosen this school for my daughter. This year end evaluation surpassed my expectations! The instructor KNOWS my child and her callouts are VERY valid and applicable to choices that I will make for Zoe this fall. I appreciate the insight and thank you all for a great dance semester and we are looking forward to the fall!

Hi Natalia,
I cried after the performance - you guys are truly the best! I have to tell you the story when we first signed up for dance. Christine begged for dance for several years and I just couldn't make the schedule work. Finally, I promised so we signed up. My husband complained (a little) about the cost. … After the performance we were walking home and he reached over to say, "that is the best $600 I have ever spent" After that he never once complained and was happy to write a check. I hope we can find a dance school half as nice as AYDT.

Lots and Lots of Love,
Terry

Hi Natalia,
I really like getting an evaluation b/c it's hard not being there myself to know how Zoe is doing, except at the dance recital. … As for feedback from our side, when Zoe talks about her "teachers", it's Ms. Deborah and Ms. Nanci - NOT her teachers at preschool, where she goes everyday! … Zoe loves going to class and practices at home every night and puts on recitals for us all the time. Thanks for giving her such a great experience!

Thanks for everything,
Lisa

Chloe loved the tap class so much she wanted to sleep with her tap shoes on!

Hi Natalia,
Looking forward to September, the girls are talking about the classes every day. Thank you so much for creating such an amazing environment for them to flourish!

You did a fabulous job as always this year. I have to say that we are so "proud" of you--we feel as though we've watched you and the studio grow to such a wonderful, professional but human school and are so thrilled for your success! Thanks so much!

Warm regards,
Jane

Natalia,
The performance was fantastic. The girls were so pleased afterwards, and as parents, we were too. Your costumes were beautiful. The venue was great. It was really special, and I just wanted you to know.

Thanks,
Nancy

Hi Natalia,
The recital was a terrific experience. Thanks so much for your hard work, I know you and the faculty have a lot of additional work and responsibility because of the recital and it is a truly unique and priceless experience for the girls and I think it has helped Emma and given her a lot of self confidence and pride over the years and I am tuly appreciative.

Also, thanks for the every personal holiday card. I am amazed that you are able to continue to build the community feeling around AYDT despite your rapid growth.

Love,
Barbara
