We love The Next Step! My three girls have been dancing at Next Step for 10 years. The oldest is now 16, and they would probably tell you the friendships and camaraderie are the coolest part of it. I also see the value of those long term bonds but have come to understand and appreciate the important lessons they are learning in committment, responsibility and dedication that can only be learned incrementally and over time. The kind of lessons and maturation that you simply cannot teach with lectures or even instruction.For my girls dance is lots of fun but it's also enduring a lengthy choreography session and making it to class even when they're too tired. It's about not letting down their teammates, bursting with joy when they learned they've made that next team and feeling the confidence and pride of nailing a performance in front of a packed house.I would personally like to thank The Next Step and their dedicated staff for giving my daughters the wonderful gift of dance."Ray & Lesli
