Student Comments
  Lyndsey Clark
"Although it has only been two weeks since I left Hofstra University, I feel like it has been much longer. The time that I was fortunate enough to spend there meant so much to me. My eyes were opened to a wealth of information. The amazing teachers that were kind enough to take time out of their very busy schedules and professional lives helped me to grow, not only as a dancer and performer, but as a person. They spent day after day working with us and pushing us to do our best, if not better. I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to meet and work with such inspirational people that have accomplished so much and are passing their knowledge onto us."
    
"Outside of classes, I learned to be more independent and responsible. The group of dancers, actors and singers that came together for this Workshop were all so kind and welcoming that we had no trouble becoming one big family. I have to say that on the first night, I wasn’t sure if I would make it, or if I would like the taste of “college life” that I was given, but by the final night, the last thing I wanted to do was leave. I had such a great time and learned so much that I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for being kind enough to take so much time to arrange this Workshop and make it a happy, healthy and comfortable environment for us to learn and grow."
 
     
 
Kristine Glenne, teacher from Norway
"For the fifth time in ten years I have brought my students from Norway to this excellent Workshop. The classes and the faculty are excellent. The teachers are skilled and literally come straight from Broadway. The accommodations at the beautiful campus of Hofstra University gives the Workshop a welcoming, well-organized and very safe setting that I really appreciate. The Workshop is exhausting, but great fun too. Talented youth get to know each other, compare skills and improve their techniques. We always leave full of inspiration and good memories. And we always look forward to returning."

"I would like to extend my congratulations on your participation in such an excellent program Seven years ago I also attended the American Theater Dance Summer Workshop. I arrived at the Workshop without any knowledge about the Musical Theater world. I left with skills, knowledge and, most of all, a wonderful desire to be on Broadway. I dedicated my Broadway debut in Chicago, to all of you. Keep working and dreaming"

"The past two weeks have been some of the most memorable of my life. Not only has the Workshop helped me grow in my dancing, but it has helped me to grow as a person. I learned to discipline myself, and I found out that I can accomplish much more than I thought possible. I even found out that I can sing."

"Getting to study with incredible teachers is an experience I will never forget. They gave me that confidence boost that I so badly needed. Thank-you again for all your kindness, faith in my abilities and support."

 
     
 
Tara Marie Harrison
"I have never experienced such an amazing dance Workshop. From day one I felt welcome and comfortable. Each class had a challenging, educational and most of all fun element. You've helped realize my dream. I know from the seminars and talks during classes that it ís extremely hard, but that just makes me want it more."
 
     
 
Martha Delgado, teacher from Mexico
"I have brought my students to this Workshop twice. It was great to find this because in Mexico we do not have such a course that merges so many different techniques, dance styles and activities for young people. We met such wonderful people and shared different experiences. We felt like a big family and there's no difference of age and nationality. You made us feel at home."
 
     
 
Cassandra Hoo
"I always enjoy myself at your program because of the incredible environment, faculty, love and care. I come out of the Workshop feeling proud, spiritually uplifted and found improvement in my dancing. I find your Workshop such a wonderful learning experience and always come with new hope for the future".
