What Our Students and Parents Say

This dance studio is worth your time! It may be small, but that’s what makes it so special. The owner is super sweet, personable and just a genuine person who cares! We took our daughter out of here one year, to join a larger and more known studio, worst mistake! We’re back and staying! We appreciate all the dance instructors and the time they take to teach all the kiddos. Our daughter has really blossomed here.

Studio Dance Program Parent

Everyone at KIO Studio has been AMAZING! I take recreational adult classes, and the staff and other students were very inclusive and welcoming! Ms. Tiffany highlights the strengths of each dancer in her choreography and keeps the vibe super fun but equally challenging! My 13 y.o. son saw how much fun I had, so he’s going to try out some classes! Thanks, Denise and Jody, for creating such a great dance space at KIO!
