I used to be very self conscious about my dancing and it wasn’t super enjoyable and kind of pointless when you care about everyone else’s opinion when it’s your expression. But through going to Amanda’s dance class and being able to just dance in front of people and not have a pre-disposed view of looking at me negatively...

I’ve been dancing for a few years and did gymnastics before that...Dance helps me in times when I'm feeling really stressed..it helps take things off my mind that I'm worried about and it helps me be myself before getting back to the real world. Since dancing with ASTC - my skills have improved a lot, I don’t dread coming to dance class, ASTC has made it a lot funner a lot better.

I’ve been dancing for 6-7 years...when I dance it helps me express myself. When I'm not in a good mood or stressed it makes me feel happy. I love having someone to look forward to that I love doing. When I came to ASTC I love that it’s very challenging...I was able to step up and learned a lot of dance techniques. If you want to challenge yourself and love dancing ASTC is all of that and it’s a lot of fun.

There’s nothing like it. When I did my first solo - I learned that I could do it. I didn’t think I could do it. I used to be all about the steps, not focusing on the movement or the feeling. There’s nothing really like ASTC. All the teachers are inspirational. Everyone - the family is incredible. I was doing privates with Amanda each week since the pandemic and it was a life saver.
