Reviews of Move With Grace Dance Studio (Dance School)

Andy Hourahine

Rarely does a family dedicate itself so completely and selflessly to helping others share in this passion for the arts. Bravo, Tedesco's. The world needs more people like you.

Move With Grace is more than a dance studio. It’s a family. The lifelong lessons (confidence, teamwork, trust and skill) my girls have learned will only benefit them, whatever they choose to do as a future career. The friendships they (and I) have gained are forever friends. We couldn’t be happier! From timid, shy little girls who overcame their doubts and self esteem challenges, my girls are competing with solos and loving every moment! When the dance year ends in June, all they can talk about is how much they want to get back to the studio. Thank you Robyn and Jim for being an important part of my girls growth!

It’s the most genuinely loving and caring studio I’ve ever been to! Everyone is super great and tons of fun. During my time at Move with Grace I have been given so many opportunities to grow and have improved more than I ever thought I could. When I first came to the studio I was super shy and nervous but since then Move with Grace has helped me improve my confidence inside and outside of the studio. During my time here Ive been able to achieve many of my dance and personal growth goals. So grateful to be a part of their amazing dance family!

My brother and I danced at Move With Grace for eight years. Quality training with an emphasis on personal development in addition to technical skills make this studio stand out from others. The staff team truly cares about every dancer’s well-being and works incredibly hard to create a safe and encouraging space for everyone to grow, both as dancers and as people. Award winning technique and choreography, as well as a healthy, positive environment, is a rare combination in the dance world and Move With Grace has it all.

Looking back over our dance photos, I am amazed at how far my daughter has come in such a short period of time. Started in recreational dance then 1 year of precompetitive, and last year in her 4th competitive, she got the opportunity to compete at the world level, competing with a few team mates in Poland - bringing home GOLD for Canada. All of these amazing accomplishments thanks to the love, dedication, open arms, and hearts of the Move With Grace family - the studio owners, the teachers, and Comp team parents. "To the World, we are just a team. To each other, We Are Family." #MWGPride We wouldn't be anywhere else!

I've gotten to know Robyn Tedesco over the past year, at a number of dance industry seminars, and she and her family along with their dedicated staff, care deeply about the kids at the studio. She is dedicated to making her students the best dancers - and even more so - the best people - they can be. Move with Grace families are lucky to have such a dedicated advocate working to provide them with the finest dance studio in the area.

David Kroeker

Great team here that deeply cares about their team and dancers to succeeding! Keep up the great work!

Stephanie Robertson

My daughter has been dancing at Move With Grace for the last 5 years and my other 3 kids have all been at the studio over the years as well. We love everything about our experience here! The staff is amazing, the technique my kids have learned has been top notch, but my favorite thing about Move With Grace is the family. The studio is our second family, from the amazing owners,teachers, every single child and parent; we are a village not only in our childrens love of dance but in life. I highly recommend this amazing studio not only for the great dance education but the atmosphere and role models we are able to be around everyday :)

We are so lucky to have an awesome Dance Studio that has adapted even with Covid19 to keep our Dancers dancing!! So excited for this year ????????????

I have dealt with Move with Grace for one year now. They are by far, hands down, the best dance school in Cambridge, Ontario. Robin and James displays true interest in their children and motivates them consistently.

Chantelle Bruinsma

You won't find a more caring, nurturing studio out there - the teachers, the other students, the atmosphere, it's absolutely the best studio in town. I would recommend Move with Grace to ANYONE!

Taylor Spengen

Move with Grace is an incredibly friendly studio and is like a second home to me and my sister. Being a part of the studio has given me a chance to grow and become more confident in myself in more ways than one. I have always been more shy than not and dancing at Move with Grace has helped me become more outgoing and confident inside and outside the dance community. I have been able to achieve many things while at Move with Grace, including being very successful on the ballet exams I have taken, allowing me more opportunities for my future. Everyone at Move with Grace-the staff, dancers and families, are all super nice and supportive of one another. I am so grateful to be a part of Move with Grace’s amazing dance family.

Brianna Howson

Move With Grace deserves more than 5 stars. They have an amazing studio space with multiple class rooms, superb staff with years of experience and qualifications under their belt. But the best part about a dance studio like this is the second family you get to be a part of. A truly wonderful place for your child to be.

Kelly Summers

Great staff, teachers and behind the desk team!

Kitty

It has been an absolute pleasure to be a part of the Move With Grace Dance Studio family. The studio's approach to dance is well-rounded and reaps incredible results in establishing poise, grace, and a love for dance in its students. The staff and members of this studio have created a wonderful community for dancers and dance parents alike. Way to go!

Vision Dance Academy

Robyn and her team are wonderful. They are very friendly, and dedicated to the success of the kids. The facility is beautiful and bright and welcoming. I would highly recommend this studio.

Albert Schmidt

Met these fine folks yesterday and I must say it's very commendable how they focus on treating students with respect with age appropriate music and costuming. Congratulations on your 4th Consumers Choice award.

Nicole Hourahine

Awesome studio, great teachers and support staff!

Lisa Robbins

Move with Grace is the most amazing dance glass our there. My daughter has had the best memories dancing with them for over 13 years now. This family business is wonderful, they are so talented and the kindest, understanding , helpful, people I know. They actually love our kids and put in 100% effort to make children shine and feel at home ❤️????????

Kat Bertrand

Dancing and creative movement were always a priority in our children’s education, that’s why we were so thrilled when we found this school. Technique, quality and artistry are all learned at Move with Grace. If you would like real dance instructors who know what they are doing, who are enthusiastic and have a great attitude, then I would highly recommend enrolling in this school.

This is hands down the best dance studio going!

Sandeep Chaudhari

James is awesome.... so easy to work with.

Kailey Pasta

This is our 1st season, everyone from Move with Grace - directors, teachers, student and parents have welcomed us with open arms. It’s a wonderful, inclusive and supportive environment with a great team vibe. Offering terrific technical training. We’re thrilled to learn and develop with the team!!

Not a family friendly place at all... would not recommend.

Lindsay McCarthy

I would like to leave a lower rating but because it had been better and enjoyable in the previous years I am leaving a 3. I would rate this last season as a 0 or 1 at best. I used to be a strong supporter of this studio but I have been less than impressed this last year. My daughters coach spent more time on her phone than she did teaching her class; the costumes for the year end recitle were absolutely horrible all the girls in the class hated them; and when I was called at the beginning of the summer for the early bird registration I voiced my complaints and was told I would get a phone call from the owner in which of course I didn't. When I asked my daughter how she enjoyed her year at dance this year her response was that she learned more last year. And it was supposed to be a more advanced class. The other moms I talked to all had the same opinion of this last season so I know it's not just me. The year end recitle is absolutely rediculous, very poor organization on the studios part, without all the dance moms volunteering to do the entire show there would be absolute chaos while the owner and husband hide backstage for the entire show doing sound and introductions, rather than organizing the changerooms and getting dancers onto stage themselves and hiring professionals to do the background work. With the cost us mom's have to pay they should at least give a hefty discount to recitle volunteers for the amount of time, patience and care it takes to get those 4 shows done; they are totally taking advantage of mom's who know how bad it is and don't want their babies left in that situation all day. Oh, and I keep getting a bill saying I still owe them $5.95 yet I paid for the year in full at the beginning of the season. Needless to say, I think we will be on the hunt for a new studio this year!

Move with Grace is a family based excellent dance studio that develops great dancers and great people. Our daughter has won three World Championship Ballet and Jazz medals in Poland over the last two years , has developed so well, and has been fully trained by Robyn, Ellyna and their staff. The family’s are all friends with each other and the atmosphere has absolutely no politics or negative energy. It’s awesome. They are professionals and they care about all people deeply. Proud parent and can say it’s been an outstanding investment in money and time for us.

Andrea Evans Smith

Not your typical dance studio! I am so impressed by how well Robyn, Jim, and their staff provide such outstanding support to our kids! I've always witnessed the heart and soul of their studio being instilling confidence, unleashing creativity, and helping young dancers to develop a love for dance. We first came to this studio on the strong recommendation of another parent, and I'm eager to tell others about them because MWG Dance continues to earn my trust year after year!

Sandy Kosh

family oriented, friendly, professional

shellymestre

Hands down the best studio around! We found the recreational dance classes fun, well instructed and affordable! We’ve since moved into competitive dance at Move With Grace and I couldn’t rave any more about the overall family feel, acceptance and phenomenal staff we are proud to be a part of. Thanks for fostering and nurturing my daughters love for dance in such a positive atmosphere!

Kaydance Peterson

Move with Grace is like a second home to our family. We have been with MWG for 8 years, the last 4 years have been as part of the competitive team. We can not say enough positive about this studio and their staff. MWG couldn't be a more loving and supportive place. All of the teachers are so supportive, kind and helpful, and are always there for the dancers and ready to help them pursue and achieve their goals. The teachers are extremely talented at what they do and their love for their job truly shows. Not only is the student-teacher bond strong, but as a studio we all couldn't be closer. Everyone is treated like family and I love that. My daughter as well as myself as a parent have made life long friendships through dance at MWG. We would recommend MWG to anyone looking for a positive, fun and supportive environment. At MWG you’re not just a dancer you are family ????

Ali Keith

MWG is an exceptional dance studio. They have fun, caring and knowledgeable staff. I had two of my boys in MWG. Both my boys learned not only how to dance but how to be respectful, confident, and care about others. One went on to receive 2 invites to be on team Canada and danced in music videos. Once my boys stopped dance I put my niece in from a total different city but the drive was worth it. Then I put my great niece in...MWG is family not just a dance studio

Nana Tieku

Excellent people, excellent work and kind hearts!!!

Poli Oxrud

It was a lovely experience, all aspects- service, teaching, recital, patience and care. Thank you! We will definitely be recommending this place to wveryeve who might want dance or acro classes

Angela White

Our daughter has been part of Move with Grace family for almost 7 years. She thoroughly enjoys her classes and teachers. From dance classes, recitals and summer camp every experience has been enjoyable and positive. Great job!

Emily Macgillivary

I can’t say enough good things about Move with Grace. Both of our daughters have danced there for the last 7 years, since they were 6 and 4 years old. There is no where that they would rather dance! I have enjoyed watching my girls grow in confidence and grace. Robyn, Jim and staff have created a warm, welcoming and safe environment for all children. We are proud to be a part of the MWG Family!

Susan Bettencourt

Both my girls, 11 and 8, dance at MWG and I couldn’t be happier with the dance studio I’ve chosen for them to be part of. Aside from the passionate and kind teachers, the owners are so invested in ensuring that the kids are happy and that they get the most positive experience dancing. For me, it wasn’t just about choosing a dance studio that gives good lessons in dance, but it went hand in hand with making sure my girls were part of a dance studio that was aligned with my values as a parent. Over the years, they have helped in building my girls’ self confidence and made them realize their true potential as dancers and young girls. It’s a family oriented atmosphere and it’s felt by both dancers and parents. Proud to be part of the MWG family!

Erica Barkwill

I have 2 children that danced competitively at Move with Grace for 8 years. The techniques they learned were exceptional and the environment at this studio was beyond my expectations. Not only did my kids learn to work hard on their dance skills they became part of a dance family. This studio also nurtures the importance of self growth, self worth, positive body images as we are shapes and sizes and life long friendships were built. My children are now grown and no longer at Move With Grace but our family still have very strong connections and friendships with Robyn Jim and their family and our dance community.
