"This has been a special year for us with it being our daughter's (Elizabeth) first year in competition (Jr Hip Hop). We enjoyed it so very much. We have met some great parents and Elizabeth has made some great friends. We are amazed by how much she has improved as a dancer. We are very proud to be a part of such a wonderful well-respected program. It cracks me up when my daughters (and now neighbor kids who also dance at Straub) play dance competition at our house hauling out all of their old recital costumes and running music off of an ipad. You have so many talented students but even better is that you are so good at developing kids who may not be natural dancers. My daughter is one that has to work at it. You all have inspired her so much. You have such a talented family and we appreciate you sharing your talents so much. We feel so lucky to live so close to such a wonderful dance studio."
