From the reviews
My daughter, who is now 9, just finished her fourth year at KMDS. I have been impressed with everything about the school. The teachers are not only well versed in multiple forms of dance; they have a passion to bring that knowledge to a new generation of dancers.
Three years ago I found KMDS by chance, surfing the internet searching for a dance studio for my then 3 year old. Now I have two girls who are dancing at KMDS. My oldest has been dancing there for three years and my youngest for two years. The dedication that all of KMDS staff gives to every child is amazing.
We have had such an awesome experience at Kathy Marfin's dance school. The teachers and staff are very friendly and professional. My daughter has just completed her fourth year at KMDS and we couldn't be more pleased! Her love of dance is nurtured at this studio.
My kids and I love this place!! Callen, Reagan, and Hailey 💜💜💜!!! They lay a great foundation for young dancers, bring out your kids confidence, push them to be and do their best, and love them all while doing it.
Your first ballet class at Kathy Marfin's Dance School
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
