testimonials
Don’t just take our word for it—here’s what some of our families have said.
Bob and Lisa L
My child has gained confidence, leaning technique, and a real love for music thanks to his guidance. We’re grateful for his dedication and highly recommend him/ Roots Academy to any family looking for a great drum instructor.
The mentors are fantastic! They are talented and passionate about their craft and come prepared to work with the kids.
The administrative staff is so organized and the communication is excellent. I love that they keep us informed with quick concise emails. They are also so easy to work with and accommodating (injuries, illness, rescheduling etc).
The facilities are so clean!
What first got us in the door was Ms. Liza’s bright, beautiful, beaming smile and the warm, welcoming tour she gave us. From the very first moment, we felt seen, valued, and excited to belong. What has kept us here year after year is the incredible staff and the uplifting, encouraging community they cultivate. The teachers genuinely care about each child’s growth—artistically and personally—and they lead with positivity, kindness, and high standards.
Roots is more than just a dance studio. It’s a place where kids are encouraged to work hard, support one another, and shine as their authentic selves. We are so grateful for the friendships, mentorship, and confidence our daughters have gained here. If you’re looking for a studio that nurtures talent while building character and community, Roots Dance Academy is truly something special. 💛
My child has gained confidence, leaning technique, and a real love for music thanks to his guidance. We’re grateful for his dedication and highly recommend him to any family looking for a great drum instructor.
He has a great balance of being friendly and respectful while also knowing exactly how to challenge Vihaan to keep him engaged and growing. The progress in both skill and confidence has been incredible.
Highly recommend — he truly knows how to spark and sustain a love for music. 🎸✨
Our children have been so beautifully mentored both in music and dance. We absolutely adore Ms. Kinsey, Ms. Marta, and Ms. Liv for violin, vocals, and piano...they are not only gifted teachers, but patient, encouraging, and deeply invested in their students. Our girls have also grown tremendously in lyrical with Ms. Meg and in ballet with Ms. Bella and Ms. Ava, who bring both discipline and joy into every class.
Roots is more than a studio; it’s a community. There are no better people to be pouring into our kids and imparting their wisdom than the entire team at Roots Academy. We are grateful to call this place a second home.
Good atmosphere.
