“[CDI has been] a special and truly life changing experience … for Frankie. It’s given her so much self-confidence and stage presence. She really glowed on stage. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, expertise, grace and patience with those hundreds and eventually thousands of kids. You have a terrific program and achieve amazing results.”

“Thanks for all you’ve done for the kids... It’s so great to watch the kids moving and SMILING with glee. I know for a fact that you’ve made a very positive impact on my daughter’s life.”
- Stephanie, Parent

“I can’t tell you how much my entire family enjoyed the program. My daughter has not stopped talking about it and just glowed after the show.”

“I want to thank you again for the fantastic job you are doing!! My son went from being super excited about being in SWAT, ‘Mom, it's such a great honor!’ to having serious doubts he could do the job, ‘Mom, I think I should quit,’ to last night: ‘I don't know if they will invite me to join Celebrations, but if they do, I would love to join’... Beyond dancing, it was the whole process of putting together the show with the band, the singers, the costumes and lighting, etc. that impressed him so much.”
- Anon. Parent
 
“I had only one disappointment in this whole thing: the grownups don't get to dance!”
- Louise, Parent

“I just had to tell you how much Theo and I enjoyed the CDI performance last night. Even though Theo couldn't dance with Celebration this year, he wanted to see the performance. We loved it! It was so much fun to be there again and he enjoyed seeing so many kids that he recognized. You guys are amazing and I hope you feel great about another success.”
- Sally, Parent

“Thank you for the wonderful performances last weekend! It was thrilling! We enjoyed every step of it. The live music was spectacular. Thanks!! Now we are interested in the summer dance camp for next July for our daughter Samantha.”
