FROM THE PARENTS

“Baxter Dance Training has played a major influential role in my daughter’s life over the last year and a half. I’ve seen her confidence in herself and her abilities soar. Consistency of class attendance and the teaching and guidance by the instructors has given my daughter a drive to work hard and better herself each week. Thank you Baxter Dance Training for all you do to help these kids find that love for dance that they may have lost along the way!”

“When my son came to Samm he had only ever danced hip hop. She immediately encouraged him to try everything and with her encouragement, he did. To our surprise he didn’t only love hip hop; he loved dance! We cannot thank Samm enough for her encouragement, dedication, and hard work. Our favorite thing about Baxter Dance Training is that the instructors lead by example. It’s not just a dance class, it’s a family.”

“Baxter Dance Training has been such a positive experience and environment. The Teachers are the best of the best! They not only provide excellent training and opportunity, but also genuinely care about their students. We love being a part of this amazing team!”

“In the two years that my daughter has been working with Samm and Alexx, I have seen a remarkable transformation in her technique, style, and confidence. Samm and Alexx genuinely care about each student and take the time to ensure that everyone is progressing and learning the proper techniques.”
