You Teach Them Something They Will Have Forever — Loving Themselves…

“I am so thankful for PSOD, that my girls are able to thank God for their bodies and use them for His glory. Please pass this along to the rest of the PSOD staff. You give our girls WAY more than just dance lessons, you teach them something they will have forever — loving themselves for who they are — just the way God made them to be!  Amen to that!”  Amanda


Quality Dance Education with God Honoring Music, Costuming, and Dance Style…

“I just wanted to say how nice the show (Performing Arts Showcase) was tonight. I so appreciate the quality dance education that you all provide with God honoring music, costuming, and dance style. Having been recently exposed to grade school girls at a talent show who have clearly been influenced by another school or popular culture to dance in ways that were anything but God honoring, it made us all the more thankful for your program.”  Jessica


It Feels Like Home…

“I love Prairie School of Dance because when I walk in to class it feels like home. The teachers create such a welcoming environment and do whatever they can to help us learn! I have learned so much about myself through my 12 years of dancing there, and I wouldn’t be who I am without all of the teachers and students. Thank you to everyone who makes this possible!”  Maddie

 Graduating Senior’s Parents Express Gratitude…

“As Erin closes her chapter at PSOD, we wanted to thank all the teachers and staff. It takes a village to raise a child and your influence on Erin has helped her become the wonderful young woman she is today. We appreciate your unyielding focus on Christ’s love and the gifts each of your students has been given. This message did not fall on deaf ears and Erin is a more faithful and confident young woman because she heard it during each and every class. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Lynn & Tom


Extraordinary Program…

“We feel so incredibly blessed to have our daughter be a part of Prairie School of Dance. Not only is she learning to dance, she is getting wonderful exercise and learning a healthy way to appreciate her body. They teach the kids that they were created beautifully and the dancers are all surrounded by JOY. Last Saturday’s Christmas show was yet another reminder of how extraordinary the program is. During a hectic and crazy time of year, the dancers showed us what the real meaning of the season is all about. Bravo to all involved with this program. It is truly a treasure.”  Angie


Healthy Environment with Wonderful Role Models

“We love that our daughter is able to express herself through dance in a healthy and FUN atmosphere. We cannot express how grateful we are that our little girl gets to live out her dream in a healthy environment with wonderful role models! And that God is truly honored in the process…what a gift!”  Elle

 

 A Safe and Positive Place

“We chose PSOD because we wanted a wholesome, encouraging experience for our preschool-aged daughter… a safe and positive place for her to learn how to express herself artistically and understand better the beautiful person God created her to be. It’s only been two weeks, but it’s been so wonderful to watch her come out of her shell under the watchful care of her teachers! Can’t wait to see what the year holds!”  Nikki


Family Feels Incredibly Welcome

“We chose Prairie School of Dance because we had heard so many great things about the teachers and how wonderful they are. Our two girls did a camp this summer and loved it. They always want to dance and tap their little feet. They started a class this fall and are loving it. The staff are all wonderful and have helped our family feel incredibly welcome.  Thank you!”  Kristen


Acceptance is Just What My Daughter Needed…

“Nearly 14 years ago my daughter took a beginner dance class at Prairie School. She enjoyed the dancing-part but disliked wearing the costume for the performance. Mrs. Quie (the director) allowed her to be comfortable and wear her black jazz pants and leotard instead of the cute dress. This kind of acceptance is just what my young daughter needed. She’s now in college and recalls that situation vividly.  Thank You, Mrs. Quie for allowing Michelle to be herself!”  Laura

Unbelievable Place to Dance

“Prairie School of Dance is an unbelievable place to dance! So many incredible people and unique performance opportunities!”  Christina


Love, Love, Love it!

“Our daughter started dancing at PSOD in its beginnings!  She’s back dancing in the adult classes… love, love, love it!”  Gigi


So Thankful to Have Found PSOD

“The Sunday afternoon after Performing Arts orientation we were having lunch together and Emma, (out of the blue) said, “I am so thankful that we found Prairie School of Dance and that you let me dance there!  Going to PSOD is making me a better dancer.” We were surprised and thought maybe the teachers had prompted the students to share something with their parents but that was not the case. So happy to hear our daughter expressing thankfulness for her dance studio. Thanks to all the wonderful teachers!”  Denise
