❊ Testimonials

Loved by dancers. Trusted by Parents.

Seriously! But don’t take our word for it, here are some things people have to say about us.

We’ve worked with Destiny a few times now and we noticed a big difference right away as my daughter’s improvement was truly remarkable. Destiny has such a string yet gentle presence - she’s patient, clear, and truly knows how to connect with young dancers. Her ability to break things down and guide with encouragement makes her an absolute joy to work with. My daughter felt comfortable right away and is already feeling more capable and inspired. Highly recommended her ti anyone looking for a skilled and supportive private coach!


Brett G., Parent

Wonderful help working with my daughter to improve dance technique and learn new skills. She was accommodating, helpful, and great with kids! Highly recommend.


Annamarie M., Parent

We had a group of teens learning 3 dance numbers. Destiny worked around wild athletic schedules, teen emotions, and frantic mama stress with ease, reassurance and so much capacity. Clear communicator both on and off the dance floor. We highly recommend her. I will definitely hire again.
