"The first time I saw this program perform at a competition, I was instantly impressed with the quality of dancing. It was evident that they had a team of qualified instructors mentoring the students in a positive and artistic way. I am certain the teachers will nurture the full potential of these young dancers, and I could see this growing into a nationally recognized ballroom program. Well done."

"I really like seeing students learning in-depth ballroom, Latin and other styles of dance. The students of the OCSA Ballroom Dance Program are becoming specialists with a wide range of expertise and experience. These skills are necessary to be a performer on TV shows like Dancing with the Stars and So You Think You Can Dance."
