“We recently had all of our staff and judges undergo training and certifications through Danscend. As a company, it was one of our best decisions this season. Kristin and Michelle were great to work with. They built a certification that made sense for our teams given their scope of work, presented it in a format that made it easy to understand and apply while bringing in real-time scenarios and discussion for our staff and judges. I would highly recommend Danscend for not only competitions but studios and teams as well.” 

- Meghan Burgess - Owner and Executive Director, Ignite Dance Competitions


"Danscend has provided wonderful and practical tools for my faculty to implement in the classroom. The highlight for us was the seminar on classroom feedback. Kristin and Michelle are knowledgeable and thorough in their trainings and offer really insightful and supportive content for educators". 

-Allie Beach - Co-director, Broadway Dance Center Children and Teen Program


"Working with Danscend has truly transformed our approach to teaching and critiquing dancers. Their courses are incredibly easy to understand and engaging. We love starting off the season with Danscend trainings, to help get everyone on the same page. Since incorporating Danscend’s lessons, we've noticed a significant improvement in both the feedback from our judges and the overall classroom experience at Celebrity Conventions. Their courses have challenged us to level up, pushing us to continuously grow and refine our product. One of the most impactful aspects of Danscend’s approach is how they highlight the subtle things we all say and do, which can unintentionally affect the mental wellness of a child. They shed light on these moments in a way that is easy to understand, while offering practical tips and alternatives to create a more supportive environment. We can't recommend Danscend enough!"

- Jenna Lyn Endicott, Artistic Director at Celebrity Dance


We are thrilled to share our recent experience with Danscend, which has truly been nothing short of AMAZING! Through their virtual learning environment, our jurors/educators delved deep into the mental wellness of young adults and dancers, gaining a wealth of informative information. The sessions were not only educational but also fun and engaging, and time simply flew by. As a result, our team is now equipped with greater awareness and readiness to provide valuable and meaningful feedback to our ballet competition dancers. What attracted us most to Danscend was not only their exceptional past ballet experiences but also their profound knowledge of the ballet world. Their dedication to creating a safe and nurturing environment for all who participate in Ballet Championships of America is truly commendable.

-Matthew Caldwell and Ward Billeisen - Co-owners and founders, Ballet Championships of America


“Spend the money. Do it. It’s going to make a world of difference in the way dancers handle and shoulder the pressure that naturally comes with all of the things dancers deal with.”
