"As a music educator for the past twenty years, I am very impressed with the caring, happy environment at The Pulse. I applaud your choice of music, costumes and choreography. On a weekly basis I witness the children being taught in a fun atmosphere where the instructors are truly eager and enthusiastic. You have opened the door to the joy of dance for my daughter and given her a wonderful creative outlet to explore the performing arts.”

“I wanted to e-mail you first thing this morning and let you know about Payten's first day with The Pulse..."AWESOME" (quote from Payten!) She jumped into the truck and announced that she had the best time ever! She LOVES Ms. Greta and Mr. Curtis and she also stated "when I do something wrong they don't yell at me, they show me how to do it right!" Thank you - thank you - thank you for such a wonderful, positive, "awesome" first day. (It makes me sooooo happy to see Payten walk out of a dance studio with a smile on her face & looking forward to the next class!)"
Debbie Romig , parent
“I feel so lucky to have found The Pulse. Brooke looks better than I've ever seen her. She's so happy with her experiences there. I am very impressed how good all of the dances looked. After our other studio closed I never really thought we would find someplace that we loved just as much, but we have, by far.”
Jennifer Cheffey, parent
“This is better communication and business practice than I have experienced in such a long time!”
Kristin Koetting O'Byrne, Ph.D., parent
“Yesterday I visited my daughter, Alison's, Hip-Hop class and was truly impressed by her teacher, Jessica, and the method by which she led the class. The warm-up routine was well organized and very thorough. The dance combinations were impressive and creative. Alison loves her dance class and I now can see why. Great job!"
Mindy Yancey, parent
“Evie has really grown out of her shell since she's been at The Pulse…we're seeing a big difference from when she started...I wanted to let you guys know I appreciate your patience, and I'm so thankful for all that you do for all the girls."
Liz Bondon, parent
“Having a teacher with years of professional training and years of experience working in the professional dance field makes a huge difference that many parents do not realize or look for in finding a teacher. Casey performed a solo in competition this year that Curtis choreographed. It was truly wonderful and very original and the private instruction he provided really elevated her performance. She has improved in all aspects of her dancing and performing skills. She really looks forward to going to dance class and is very sad when they end each day! Curtis makes the classes fun and is able teach them things that many other teachers cannot offer. I cannot say enough good things about Curtis as an instructor - the inspiration and compassion he provides is truly wonderful.”
Cindy Janczewski, parent
“The dances are amazing! The response we have been getting from the folks that watch the kids has been incredible! Thank you for all that you do for us."
Renee Nagle, Promotions Manager, Radio Disney
“This thank you letter is long overdue. I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated both of you as teachers. Greta, Kaitlin’s ballet really improved this year (something even her father noticed) and she loved doing the ballet small group. Curtis, I believe you have a knack for bringing out the best in all the dancers and you make each feel special. Kaitlin feels very appreciated on your competition dance team and she really enjoyed the variety in your classes. I wish both of you continued success.”
Jerri Guseman, parent
“The past months have been so incredible for me as a dancer. I am so happy that I have been given the opportunity to work with some of the best teachers, choreographers, and dancers that I will ever find. Your positive encouragement and corrections have enabled me to accomplish things that I, and the doctors, never expected...Curtis because of you I have found a new passion for lyrical and I have realized how much I love dance. Your teaching techniques and your love of the art makes me the best dancer I can be and I can honestly say no other teacher has had that effect on me...Greta I am so glad I am taking your classes and I know that I would not be where I am without your classes..I am proud to have you as a teacher. I just wanted you all to know that I am really grateful to be part of your company and there is no other studio I would rather represent than The Pulse...thank you for this wonderful opportunity."
Mia Scaglia, student
“I love how you teach every move and make it easy to remember. You taught me much more than I could have imagined possible. Having you for a teacher has really allowed me to open and up and become more confident in myself. Thank you for never giving up and making me a better dancer.”
JoAnna Gonzalez, student
“I couldn’t think of anyone that I would want teaching my three kids more! Their dedication, focus, character, and passion is not easily found in this area. I would strongly recommend them to parents who are looking for great role models and teachers for their kids.”
Joe Freeman, parent
“Lauren has grown so much as a dancer and in her dance skills in the 2 years of being in the competition group. Curtis is amazing! His patience and enthusiasm are unending! The kids work hard, have fun, and love to dance.”
Deb Feekin, parent
"I love Curtis. He is the best dance teacher! He is funny and nice and is a great dancer. I know that he loves kids."
Casey Williamson, student
“I first started taking from Curtis at the age of 15. Before Curtis, dance had been nothing more to me then a fun hobby. I never really took it seriously and rarely was motivated to push myself. After taking just one class from Curtis, I was able to look at not only myself, but the art of dance in an entirely different light. I was instantly inspired and realized how unaware I actually was with my talent. I just needed a great teacher to show me what I was capable of, and Curtis did that for me. Curtis' way of teaching, mixed with his amazing ability to inspire and motivate, made me into the dancer I am today and will be forever. My passion and love for dance I know I would not have, had I never taken from Curtis.”
Cara Hafley, student
“The thing I loved about Cutis is that I learned alot about dance. Also he was a GREAT teacher he was funny, nice, creative on dance steps, and he loves kids. He loves teaching kids. Greta is so nice, she is a GREAT ballet teacher, loves dancing with kids, she is very fun making routines. They are such great competition teachers and regular dance teachers. I miss them so much.”
Jorden Binkley, student
”Brandon’s extensive knowledge of musical theatre, his vocal expertise, and creativity in teaching the performing arts and working with young people of all talent levels have established him as a valuable resource for my company and my students. Having worked with him in Los Angeles for many years, I know that his experience has helped him grow into a veteran performer and a respected vocalist in the industry. It has been exciting to watch him pass on his knowledge to young people as they work on their skills in the performing arts.”
Alisa Allen Shyer, Director, Karousel Kids, Inc.
“Brandon is one of the most organized and business minded individuals that I have met. As a key associate in our company, Brandon has displayed a strong work ethic, superior organization skills, and just the right touch of creativity to take our business to a new level.”
