“The Phipps dance program and the Phipps Center in general is one big family. The environment here is like no where else. Everyone is so supportive of everything you do and encourage you to be the best you can. There is truly no where better to dance and learn the foundations of performance movement.”

"The Phipps dance program has felt like a family to me for as long as I can remember. It is so supportive and I love how it allows each dancer to grow at their own pace. I’m so grateful for all the connections I have made through this program and the amazing dance training I have received here!"
