New Heights Dance Academy - Tampa, Florida

New Heights is an amazing place for people of all ages to dance and learn. Cassie is running a studio that encourages people to express and enjoy themselves. My children have been dancing with New Heights for several years and they always love their time there. New Heights is a great part of the neighborhood!

My 3 and 5 year old have been taking classes at New Heights Dance Academy since they were old enough to enroll. We have loved our experience! Cassie & the other amazing teachers offer high quality training in a fun, encouraging, & accepting environment... exactly how a child's dance experience should be!

Love NHDA! Thie 47-year old is so grateful for a place where I can take a true ballet class alongside other women who are simply full of joy for the chance to dance and feel great. Cassie has established a welcoming environment where people of all ages can try out (or pick back up again) a variety of dance styles. Plus, my little one has loved the dance camps this summer. We'll both be back in the Fall.

I can't say enough wonderful things about NHDA! It's so refreshing to find a place that not only welcomes adult dancers, but takes us seriously and challenges us to take our skills to the next level.
Cassie has created a supportive, inclusive, and fun community for dancers at all levels and styles. I'm so happy to be a part of it!

My 3 year old daughter started taking combo classes with Cassie and I now recommend New Heights Dance Academy at every opportunity. The environment of the studio is welcoming and positive with the focus of the dancers building confidence in themselves through the art of dance. It's apparent through the interactions that I've witnessed that all the instructors genuinely enjoy teaching. The skill set that Cassie enthusiastically teaches with such compassion towards the kids is evident in every single class. Enrollment and payment is simple, classes are very fairly priced and the value that I get in return as a parent watching my child learn and grow in a healthy, safe environment is everything I could ask for. Cassie has mastered the talent of being a skilled professional while incorporating her love of teaching dance.

Update:

I am updating my review now that I have been inspired to start my own dance journey with New Heights. The same welcoming feeling that our daughter experiences is the same one that I have been presented in my very first ballet class. I’ve spent 36 years of my life not being a dancer, but that doesn’t matter. Cassie is fun, understanding and knowledgeable about her craft. If you’re considering signing up for an adult basics class, just do it! I am not a prima ballerina by any means and yet New Heights still makes me feel excited about showing up and doing my best. You’ll gain confidence (and maybe even a friend or two) here.

Old review:
We love New Heights Dance Academy! Our five year olds favorite day of the week is dance class day. Everyone makes her feel so welcome.

I highly recommend this studio! Cassie is very organized and I love how her studio is all inclusive. My 2 year old started in August 2022 and had a great time! The summer class she took prior to that at a different studio just didn't know how to handle toddlers. Cassie is great at keeping them engaged and dealing with them when they have rough days. The plie n play 2-3 year old class is great! An adult dances with them and they get to dance, then take a break to color, have a snack break and get to dance some more! It's really tailored to their age and gets them ready for class without a parent. My daughter loves the songs and sings them all week! The end of the year festival is different than your regular dance recital... it was a lot more relaxed and fun! Adult tap classes that I have done in the past are usually only a couple of students and beginners are mixed with those that have experience. At NHDA, Cassie has different levels for adults and is able to fill her classes. I decided to sign myself up for an adult tap class and can't wait to start! I considered moving to a studio closer to our house, but NHDA is worth the 20-30min drive!

New Heights Dance Academy is a fantastic dance studio. They offer a variety of classes and the teachers are all talented! I joined to get back into dance, so took the adult beginner class as a refresher, and after a year later... I'm now signed up for 3 classes a week. Cassie is great and the studio accommodates every age and level of experience.
