Once a part of the Diamond Family... always.
Stories of Diamond Alumni and their families who take at Diamond today.
Shayli - Diamond Alumni
"First Dance Recital for Lily and I held back tears the whole time… watching my little girl dance on the same stage, at the same studio, with the same teachers who once poured into me… feels incredibly full circle!
What this studio taught me was always so much bigger than dance…they taught me confidence, leadership, kindness, discipline, and how to believe in myself. They made little girls feel seen, capable, and important. They taught us to always dream big and to use our light to lift others.
Some of my favorite childhood memories were created in those dance rooms, and now getting to watch my 3-year-old experience that same love and magic is something I’ll never take for granted. Brian and Melinda impacted my life more than most and now watching them impact hers is something so special to me.
Last night was more than just a dance recital, it felt like a reminder that the people who pour goodness into children truly leave a lasting impact for generations."

"There truly aren't words for how proud I am of this girl. Watching her fall absolutely in love with performing this past year has been one of the greatest privileges of my life. The joy and confidence she feels o stage is impossible to miss!
Getting to watch her dance at the same studio that shaped so much of my own life makes it even more emotional for me. I got to help backstage and watch from the wings, and there was no shortage of tears while watching her.
I'm endlessly grateful for her teachers, who pour so much more into these children than dance steps and songs. They give them confidence, encouragement, discipline, joy, friendship, and so much love. The impact they have reaches far beyond the stage, and I will never take that for granted.
Brian and Melinda have poured their hears and souls into this studio, and it shows in every detail, every performance, and every child who walks through those doors.
At the end of both nights (of our showcase), Piper was in tears because she didn't want it to be over or leave the people she loves so much there. I think that says everything about the kind of place this is.
Because of this amazing studio and the people leading it, I already know she's becoming not only a beautiful performing, but an even more beautiful person. I can' wait to watch her continue to grow!

"This weekend my heart was bursting! Watching BOTH my girls on stage is a Dream come true. I just love them!
I'm so proud of Myla for going out on that stage for the first time ever and being so brave. It was hard to hold back tears.
Teya is blowing me away with her confidence and love of the stage. I love watching her joy shine through in her performance.
And thank you to Diamond Arts Dance. It's honestly another dream come true to have my kiddos learning and gaining a love of the arts from the same place I did! We love you guys!
Haley - Diamond Alumni
"I'm so incredibly grateful and proud that Shirley can grow up and experience the same magic that is Diamond Arts as I did. I can't wait to see what she does next. No matter what it is Diamond Arts helps shape confident, independent leaders and I couldn't be more proud."
