Reviews of Wildfire Dance Studio (Dance School)

Caryn Headley

This was our first year dancing at Wildfire in Painesville and we couldn’t have been more pleased with our experience. Both of my daughters enjoyed their classes immensely and showed great improvement at the end of the year. The instructors are knowledgeable and the kids absolutely adored them. It truly is a dance family at Wildfire, and we are so happy to be a part of it!

Wildfire Dance Studio is far and away the best dance studio in the area. Everything is top notch...from the studio space, to the instructors, to the extremely organized and thorough communication...and, everyone is always SO nice! My daughter absolutely loves dancing with Wildfire, and we'll be sticking with this program for many, many years to come.

Wildfire dance studio in Painesville is absolutely wonderful! My daughter has taken classes with Marci and loved every minute. Most recently, my son took the Urban Hip Hop class with Julian (Previous Cavs Scream Team dancer) and had a blast! He learned the coolest dances and loved performing in the recital. During the Covid-19 Pandemic, the studio really impressed me by going above and beyond to accommodate families and provide Zoom classes keeping the dancers engaged- also providing free face masks that my kids have used for months. I highly recommend Wildfire Dance studio in Painesville for many reasons.

We are so happy with our experience at Wildfire Dance Studio. The instructors are awesome and truly care about their students. Most recently, during the COVID-19 stay at home order, the instructors performed monthly Zoom meetings checking-in on the girls health and well-being. I can’t tell you how much we appreciate the fact that these instructors care so much about our girls. We’ve been fortunate enough to be a part of the WDS family for the past 10 years and will continue to be a part for many years to come.

The Wildfire Dance program has been in business for 40 years, and it's simply the best. The program not only produces beautiful dancers, but gives kids the confidence and poise to succeed in many aspects of life. Once you try it, nothing else will compare.

Our daughter LOVES her Wildfire dance family! Olivia is currently in her 7th year and loves every minute of being at dance. Every year Olivia has been able to try new classes and experience new methods of dance. Wildfire has a great variety of classes. We applaud the teachers with doing a wonderful job and striving to help the kids become better dancers as well as friends.

Our daughter is preparing to enter her 3rd year of dance at the Wildfire Painesville Studio. Her experience has been wonderful! Mary and her team are extremely professional and offer great instruction. I find the classes to be very affordable and the recital costumes are always appropriate for the age of the dance. I only wish we would have joined Wildfire sooner!

My daughter has been dancing with Wildfire since she was 3 years old-she is now 12. She followed the admiration she had watching her big sister dance on the stage with her beautiful costumes. We started here in the Lake County Studios, she has since become a member of their competitive teams and we also use the Ashtabula studios. Wildfire Dance has given both my daughters confidence, determination, strength (mental and physical) and friendships. The instructors at Wildfire are incredible! They are very knowledgeable and skilled in the world of dance. They have encourage my daughters to follow their goals and achieve them. She has also learned that dance isn’t just about the pretty costume on the stage, it about what you feel inside. It comes from the heart-the passion, the drive...that’s what makes you keep dancing! ????????

We all want our children to have confidence, and belief in their own abilities. We are always looking for experiences which will provide reinforcement of positive ideals. Wildfire Dance Studio was just what we were looking for. 10 years ago, my daughter wanted to dance, which I thought would be a nice hobby for her. My daughter loved it so much that each year she added classes (and there are so many to choose from: lyrical, jazz, pom, and hip hop, plus more) to increase her training and now is a member of the senior competition team. My younger daughter saw how much fun dance is and all the skills her sister had developed and followed suit. She is now on the junior competition team. Their passion was fueled by the encouragement and professional choreography by the coaches who are determined to bring out the very best in all dance students. Your child will truly benefit from the confidence and pride that comes with each new dance accomplishment mastered. We love Wildfire Dance Studio, it's truly my girls second home!

I cant say enough good things about Wildfire Dance! My daughter is starting her 7th year and she has loved every second of it. The instructors are great as well as the class options. My daughter is not only learning how to dance, but she now has a dance family and is gaining life skills such as confidence and teamwork. We love Wildfire!!????

The little girls I watch love Wildfire Dance Studio. Their faces light up and it’s all they want to talk about the day of their class! They can’t wait to show me all their new dance moves. I recommend Wildfire Dance to all my friends with a child interested in dance.

My daughter is entering her 4th year of Wildfire dance and has enjoyed every minute. The studio provides top notch class instructors, a variety of genres to choose from, and encourages each student to have confidence and grow in their own ability. My daughter has learned what it means to be on a team, to dedicate time to grow and try new things, and has made friendships that will last a lifetime. Communication that is provided on the website as well as monthly newsletter ensures each dance family is always informed!

My daughter has attended Wildfire for the past 7 years and currently she is on the Starz competition team. It has given her so much confidence and has taught her how to be a responsible team player. She has made a lot of friends and absolutely loves it! The studio is clean and has a wonderful group of talented, patient and professional instructors. I highly recommend!!!!

My daughter has danced here for 5 years now and absolutely loves it !!! This year she is challenging herself and doing a more intense style and she is so happy she did . So clean and organized and the communication is amazing here . We love it and so will you !

My daughter has taken various classes at Wildfire Dance since she was three; she loves it! She always has a big smile on her face after class. It’s a family friendly business and a good dance school. The basics she learned at a young age in her Preschool Classes have helped her grow as a dancer. Dancing has helped a shy little girl gain confidence and poise which she has carried over in school and other activities. This is really an amazing dance studio! The instructors are amazing teachers! They are patient, kind, encouraging and really help the dancers progress.

Our girls have been dancing with Wildfire Dance Studio for 5 years. The amount of confidence they have gained is immeasurable. The instructors are very professional and always on point. We love to watch them dance inside and outside of the studio! We are so grateful for all the girls have learned and the way it has shaped them into the great young ladies they are.
