Parents:

Miss Becca and your beautiful staff,
Thank you for a wonderful first year!  I cannot say enough good things!  We have had experiences with other studios and I can honestly say that I have no regrets or apprehensions leaving my daughter in your care for a full evening.  Your operation is professional and classy and I have no fears that my daughter will be exposed to anything too mature or inappropriate. The recital was wonderfully emotional; I laughed until I cried and then just flat out cried watching my “baby” blossom. Thank you, thank you, and thank you for ALL of your energy, patience and love. Teaching is nothing less than a God-given calling and I am so proud and grateful that you all answered!  I look forward to watching my daughter grow and develop in your studio!

I have now been to 3 of your recitals and I have to tell you how each year they get better and better.  This year’s choreography was fabulous.  The whole thing ran so smoothly!!! Just wanted to tell all of you ""GREAT JOB"".  You not only make it fun for our kids but you are really teaching them to dance.
~G. Peters

Just wanted to send a huge “thank you” from the Colburn Family!  We were very impressed especially from Amber's brother & grandmother. It was very well done and we felt as though we were at a paid event.  All your dancers have a HUGE talent! Great Job!

After watching both recitals today, I had to let you know what an awesome job was done!! It is evident that everyone involved in instructing the dancers works extremely hard. I believe that out of the 3 recitals my daughter has been a part of; this was the very best (even though they have all been wonderful). Not only do y'all do your job in teaching the kids how to dance, but it is obvious that the instructors are passionate about dance. I love that the instructors also dance in the recitals and are not only in the background. I believe y'all teach dance, but also self-esteem. All the dancers are encouraged and are made to feel good about themselves. The kids have so much fun while they learn and are not put down or discouraged. Thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart. I know Desiree is at the best dance studio in Midland and I am so thankful for all you guys do. I really hope she sticks with dance for a long time. Thank you, thank you, thank you. We are looking forward to seeing you all next year!!!

Dance is a blessing in Lily's life. She has gained confidence, friendships, and a love that will last a lifetime. Lily dances at school, home, and if we didn't stop her, church.  Absolute Dance provides a beautiful dance studio and excellent instructors with creativity, enjoyment, and success in mind. After dancing in front of hundreds of people, Lily knows she can do anything. Thanks Absolute Dance!

As the mother of a 15 year old daughter who has danced since the age of 3, I want to say that I am thrilled for her to be associated with Absolute Dance.  When our previous dance studio, La Petite Dance Company, decided to merge with Absolute Dance, I must say I was a bit skeptical because Amber had loved the staff and environment there.  But, now that we are here at Absolute, I know that we made the right decision and she adores everyone here.  She looks forward to her dance nights and always wants to be early.  The instructors are young and full of energy and relate so well to young students as well as older teenagers.  I am thankful for their dedication and love for children.  Amber would like to someday work with them in the studio and I love the fact that they are a Godly group of people.  Kudos to all the staff and keep up the great work - we hope to be with you through Amber's senior year!!
~S. Merket

Thanks for 2 amazing years so far!!!  We love Absolute Dance!!  The staff is very friendly and I feel like it is a place where we fit in and belong!  Desiree has made a huge change from the first few months of dancing in 2005.  She isn't that shy little 3 year old who just wants to sit by the instructor. Absolute Dance has been such a fun and wonderful experience.  I hope Desi will keep dancing all the way through high school!! The recitals that Absolute puts on are so entertaining; I would love to get to watch 13 more!! Thanks for all y'all do; I could not be more pleased!
 With Great Appreciation,
 ~M. Brewer

This is our first year with Absolute Dance and it has been great for my daughter Emma!  We are really happy with the staff and great surroundings!  I also feel that my daughter is safe when I drop her off for dance class.  Thank you Absolute for assisting with my daughter’s discipline and self-esteem!
~B. Trevino

Absolute Dance is a dance studio that looks out for the emotional well being of their students.  In a positive way, they teach the girls to strive to do their best in all their dances. Bonnie has been attending Absolute Dance for four years and she is always enthusiastic about learning new dance steps and never feels pressured by the staff. The Absolute Dance staff has enabled both Bonnie and Maddy to be able to creatively express themselves through dancing. Thank you Miss Becca, you’re absolutely wonderful and a blessing!
~E. Luna

Absolute Dance is “Absolutely” the BEST!  I cannot say enough about Ms. Becca and her entire staff!  At the age of two, my daughter (Maddisyn) expressed an interest in dancing.  Living in Jal, NM, where there is not a dance studio, I decided I would try to find a place for her to fulfill her dreams.  The first time I talked to Ms. Becca, I knew that she had a true compassion for children and dance.  Maddi has completed two years of dance at Absolute and I could not be more pleased!  Absolute has given Maddi a LOVE for dance in a fun, positive, Christian way!  My number one goal in life is to teach my children to always put God first and to make sure that they live according to His will.  I feel so blessed that I am able to take my daughter to a dance studio that will aid in attaining this goal.  Ms. Becca & staff you guys are the best – we love you & thank you for being so WONDERFUL! Absolute Dance is worth every minute of our 1 ½ hour drive each week!!!
~C. Myers

I am so proud to send Trinity to learn dance at Absolute Dance.  I wanted to take the time to say a few things that I have noticed over the last three years we have been with Absolute.  1) The kids absolutely have a Love for dance  2) The instructors have a passion for dance and the grace to teach  3) The families that I saw three years ago are the same families as this year  4) Finally and most importantly…the Lord has blessed you with the talent and grace to lead these children, you will be some of the one’s that my child will look up to in the future and I can’t think of any better place for her to pour her physical (strength, frustration, praise, and love) than on stage with Absolute Dance!  Thank you for loving Trinity as if she were the only child there.  It is apparent that every other child feels the same way that she does.  She asked me today if she could stop cheerleading to learn how to dance “Funky” next year!  Thanks for all of your hard work!! See ya next year! We love you all!
Sincerely and God Bless,
~L. Salcedo

Last year I had a very different little girl than I do now; she was extremely attached and would scream and cry any time I had to go somewhere without her.  Her cousin was taking dance at Absolute Dance and my daughter really wanted to learn how to dance too.  While I was worried about how she would react to being there without me, I went ahead and enrolled her.  I'll admit the first few times she went were a little rough, but then she became so excited every week when "dance day" would roll around.  Eventually, she stopped crying when I had to leave her with her babysitter and even began to ask me when she would get to go there or to her grandparent's house.  Putting Isabella in dance was the best thing I could have done for her - Absolute Dance has helped to make her a more independent and confident little girl!
 ~J. Garcia

Absolute:  Definition #2:  Free from any restriction, limitation, or exception!  That’s the Grand Scheme of Absolute dance.  My daughter has learned the ability to try, experience and learn many varieties of dance.  She has learned how paramount team work can be not only physically but mentally.  Watching the variation of dances at recital would best describe; without limitation!  Those girls show composure, confidence, grace and all seem to be able to shake it really well!  Last but not least, without exception; the staff at Absolute has taught my 6 yr. old to shoot for the stars in every aspect.  I would recommend this facility to any and everyone.  Great job Absolute Dance!  We are truly blessed to have you in Midland.
~S. Ryan

This is our third year with Absolute Dance and we love the instructors and the program.  It is a very positive environment for our daughter and has enabled her to make many new friends.  She looks forward to coming to class every week.  Rebecca Payne is a wonderful teacher with a low stress method of teaching.  Never has Olivia come back from class upset.  She instructs without yelling and makes it totally fun for the entire class. I appreciate how efficient the Recitals are run and how kind all her backstage help is. We will continue to support Absolute Dance for as long as Olivia wants to dance!!!
~G. Peters

The recital was awesome!  You all are fantastic.  Lindsey has had a wonderful time taking dance with you.  Thank you for making this year's recital extra special for the seniors.  She will miss taking dance!  Thanks for all you've done for Lindsey and for the great, entertaining recitals!  
~S. Moore

Absolute Dance has been a blessing to my daughter.  Not only do the instructors love on your children, but the children have great respect for their instructors.  I love how the performances are always outstanding.  My most favorite thing about Absolute Dance is that every child is a winner.  No one is more special than any other child.  I like the fact there is no competition, just old fashioned fun.  That is the most important thing to me.  The instructors teach the kids just to be themselves and to have fun...
~S. Garciaroiz

Absolute Dance is a great dance studio that provides students a wonderful Christian atmosphere to learn more and enjoy the gift and talent of dance. They have also empowered my daughter to love the gift of dance.  Becca and her staff accept each of the students for their individualities and build on their strengths and personalities.  We owe Becca and her staff so much gratitude and appreciation for putting a smile back on our daughter's face and a spark to her dancing.  She will definitely have a lifelong love of dance! 
~D. Taylor

Absolute Dance has been so accommodating to my family.  We have two girls that started there this past year. One of the things that impressed me with Absolute Dance is that they offered a class at the same time on the same day for both my girls.  They are in two different classes and I was having trouble finding a place that offered something like that.   With the way our world is today, I need one less place to be after school gets out.  The instructors have gone out of their way to make the girls feel confident and comfortable about coming to class.  They greet the girls with smiles on their faces and ready for each bundle of joy that walks through the door.  I am so thankful for finding Absolute Dance.
~C. Kimbrell

Absolute Dance has become more than a dance studio to me and my daughter (Tori).  Tori not only became a better dancer, but she was able to learn new types of dance as well.  Watching her grow not only as a dancer, but as a person was so exciting.  She learned how to take instruction and to advance her dance style.  She devoted her time to her dance classes and her instructors devoted their time to every student.  Every time I picked Tori up from dance class she was always in a positive mood.  She was never upset or frustrated.  The dance recital was an experience I will never forget.  The lyricals to Christian music was one of the most refreshing things I have seen in along time. (You were not human if it did not bring tears to your eyes.)  I watched every dancer from the tiniest to the oldest dance as proud as they could dance.  I thank Absolute Dance for providing an "Absolute Environment" to me and my daughter.  Thank you, Becca, to you and your staff for being there for my family.
~S. Jordan

My daughters have been taught at Absolute Dance since its first year, and I recommend it without reservation!!  The teachers are excellent…fun, kind and encouraging, but very challenging as well.  They take a personal interest in the girls, which has been great for their self esteem, and being part of such professional productions is very exciting.  Dance is a huge part of their lives and has greatly contributed to their self-confidence…and I know that’s because of the fabulous people at Absolute Dance!
~L. Worden

I wanted to say how much we appreciate Absolute Dance and all of its staff.  When our other studio closed we weren't sure what to do so we decided to try out Absolute Dance.  We have never regretted a moment as my daughter has learned so much these last 2 years.  She has become so much more confident and outgoing.  The recitals are always so professional looking and so enjoyable.  Our daughter is always so upset if she has to miss class as she loves all three of her teachers.  We look forward to many more years of fun and learning at Absolute Dance.
~M. Jones

I have to say, Absolute Dance is the best and finest organization I’ve ever seen.  From day one, Becca and all her employees have been just delightful.  If I had my way, I would pick Becca and her staff to run every organization and the schools in Midland!  My daughter is 6 years old, and we are very excited about staying at Absolute Dance as long as she wants to dance!  She has learned gracefulness, dancing, and also had fun.  The Recital was simply gorgeous, and I have never been more impressed with anything, and I have three children.  Becca should be applauded for doing an outstanding job!
~K. Jolly

Absolute Dance has been a wonderful, positive experience for our 3 yr old daughter. We are proud that our daughter is a part of the Absolute Dance Family. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication!

Students:

Why Absolute Dance? Well I have been going to Absolute for four years and I love it!  The teachers are always so patient and calm.  They challenge me to be a better dancer.  The girls are so nice and I have become friends with every one of them. The dance environment is amazing. I am truly blessed to be going to Absolute Dance!
~B. Luna

To me, Absolute Dance is like my world. It is the best place to be where you can always have fun. The staff is the best in the world and they have all touched my life in one way or another. I know that a lot of kids are hard to handle but they make it seem so easy and they are my true hero’s, because they are real people who actually care what the kids are doing outside of school in their spare time.  I mean I can talk to anyone up there and they take the time to listen to a problem someone could be having.  This year at Absolute was my best year of dance...I met new people and caught up with some old friends. I just can't believe that this place is so great I mean... what time and patience Miss Becca and Kevin had to put up with me... I mean that takes guts!  I guess that Absolute is just one place where I know people don't judge you by what you wear or what you look like... the only thing that we all really care about there is how great we are going to look at the dance recital and having fun.  I know that sometimes we don't feel like going to dance but when we get there...WOW the feeling is so great and we have a blast being there. There is so much to say about Absolute and what it means to me... well lets just say I started to cry while typing this! I LOVE YOU ALL AND CAN'T WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR!

I have been dancing for thirteen years, and for three of those years I have been dancing at Absolute Dance. As a student, I can truthfully say that not only do I learn something about dance from my instructors, but I also learn things about myself. When I get to the studio for class or extra practice, I feel as if I am away from the stress of school and life in general.  When I first started going to Absolute Dance, I was very down in my ability to dance because the previous studio I had gone to had really burned me out. I had been in a competition group and had gone to competition with only one thing drilled into my mind- Win. That was the first difference I saw when I visited the studio for the first time. My first recital with Absolute Dance was so laid back that I actually had time to enjoy what I was doing for the first time in over two years. Ever since that recital three years ago, my passion for dance has become important to me. With out the help of Absolute Dance and my parent’s support, I would have quit dancing all together and I would have wasted my talent. I look forward to going to dance every week, simply because the instructors at the studio look forward to sharing their joy and love for dancing with me. I give my credit of fundamentals to my previous dance teacher, but I give my credit of opening up and being myself on the stage to Becca and the staff at Absolute Dance. I thank God everyday for sending me to Absolute Dance because they are truly blessed and talented women who share their talents and share their love of dancing with me as I have grown to be a better dancer the past three years.
~W. Taylor

I have attended Absolute Dance now for four years, and I can truly say that it has been such an awesome and rewarding experience. I have learned so much and have been challenged to become a better dancer. I attended a Student Teacher Workshop in the summer and one of the things Becca taught was to teach by showing your passion for dance.  All of the dance instructors teach with their hearts out of their love for dance. They do not go to work with a frown or in a bad mood. They do everything they can to make each dancer reach their full potential.  Absolute Dance is like a second home to me.  I feel so welcome and accepted every time I walk in the doors.  If I am ever having a bad day I look forward to dance class so much more because dancing gets my mind off of all my stress. It helps me to just relax and not have to worry about everything.  I have made so many friends and memories in my four years at Absolute that I will never forget. Absolute Dance is simply the "Absolute" best!!
