Testimonials
To all my friends at Vanleena: thank you to every one of you for making me laugh, making me focused, making me want to be better and achieve, and for growing with me in dance and in life.
Vanleena has been a place about having fun and just loving to dance. It has been my home away from home for eight years. The people I have met at Vanleena are not just my peers and my teachers; they are all my friends. I am so lucky to have been molded by so many amazing dance teachers. Vanleena has taught me dedication, passion, and hard work.
I have been dancing at Vanleena Dance Academy for over five years and it has been a huge part of my life for that entire time. I fell completely and entirely in love with dance. I am now at Vanleena for up to 7 hours a week and every minute is amazing.
