Dancemaker

I grew up at Dancemaker, it was my second home. Because of Geoff and Bernadette Casio I was very well prepared for a career as a dancer and singer. Dancemaker training was the foundation that helped me fulfill my dream of performing on Broadway in New York City not once, but twice. Now, I am having a little girl myself, and wish a place like this was nearby to teach my daughter all they taught me, not just as an artist, but as a human being. I will always have a place in my heart for Geoff, Bernadette and my Dancemaker family.

Best dance studio around! The owners take dance technique, choreography and dedication to the art very seriously. Amazing classes for every age and skill level. Their productions are fantastic and the students have a blast!

I’ve been working with the owners of Dancemaker on a professional basis for over 20 years, and they have now become friends. Their teaching staff is always professional, and put the needs of the children first. It’s a guarantee your child will learn the fundamentals of the dance of their choice, and along the way build poise and self confidence. They offer all styles of dance, produce an annual recital, and have a performing group as well. Many studio’s focus on an age group, and ultimately your child grows out of their studio. NOT the case here, he or she will grow from a toddler to a young adult dancing their way through life. Call them today!

Dancemaker is the whole package! Great dancing, singing and acting instructors! Kids can start as toddlers, and stay with the studio right up through high school. It speaks to the nature of the owners when so many graduates come back to teach. The kids just don’t want to leave. But leave they do… to pursue college majors in dance and musical theatre. One past student has even been on Broadway! Dancemaker will teach and nurture your children, help them gain confidence, and let them have fun, all at the same time!

I had the privilege of working with Geoff, Bernadette and the amazing students at Dancemaker for over 3 years until opportunities in my own career moved me across the country! While there, I not only appreciated the talent of the teachers and students, but even more awe inspiring at times was the work ethic I saw developed day in and day out in these kids! They set goals and would go above and beyond to achieve them all while supporting each other as a family unit amidst the inescapable competition that the industry can breed. Geoff and Bernadette really encourage a family atmosphere involving kids at all levels no matter their background. bringing out the performer in everyone.
I’m so proud of the time I spent with Dancemaker. So proud of the students I had the privilege of working with, blessed to have worked with a fantastic teaching staff, and amazed at what the graduates continue to achieve beyond the studio! If you’ve been looking for a dance/​acting/​singing studio, look no further than Dancemaker. You won’t find better!

I graduated from Dancemaker 2 years ago and am currently attending college in Nevada. After my first ballet class at school, my instructor (who had never seen me dance) approached me and said, «I could tell within the first 5 minutes of class that you were quite an advanced dancer. You have really great technique. Whatever studio you came from definitely taught you well.»
I couldn’t have agreed with her more because Dancemaker did teach me well! Geoff and Bernadette are wonderful. Not only did they teach me to dance, but inspired me to always work hard to reach my goals. I couldn’t have asked for a better dance studio to grow up in. Thanks to Dancemaker I can walk into any audition and feel confident in myself and in my performing skills. I would recommend Dancemaker to anyone! It’s a great environment with wonderful and skilled teachers. Any class taken at this studio is beneficial. I can’t thank Dancemaker enough for helping me become the performer I am today!

A happy client of Dancemaker for the past 6 yrs! My daughter’s passion and love for dance is wonderful and I love that Dancemaker is like her second home 4 days a week. Ms. Bernadette and Mr. Geoffrey are two wonderful, loving, caring, talented dance teachers and owners. They both put the children first! The whole staff is talented. My child has not only learned tap, jazz, ballet, tumbling, and voice but she has gained confidence. My shy little girl can now get up in front of her class and give a presentation. THANK YOU DANCEMAKER STAFF FOR GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND! One grateful mom

As the saying goes, perception is reality. My review is the perception and resulting reality of a five year client of Dancemaker.
Dancemaker has given my daughter not only lessons in technique and an outlet for her creativity, but has allowed her to find a passion. She has gained confidence evident in her posture, her communication and her character.
My daughter attends classes five days a week for a minimum of three hours a day. She is challenged, supported and encouraged in every interaction.
We will always be grateful for everything Dancemaker has given our daughter!
