When asked if I would recommend Educational Performance Tours to other dance director – the answer is simply - Absolutely!” – Deborah K. Paine, Dance Director Debbie Kaye School of Dance, Osford, MS

“This was my first time traveling with my dance students, and I am so happy that we used Educational Performance Tours as our tour operator. It was a blast! My students and I had a very special experience during our travels to New York. It was such a fabulous feeling to walk the streets of New York and to be a part of their dance community for a few days. My students had the opportunity to grow and get some excellent and valuable feedback from professionals in the dance world.” – Alyssa McMichael, Dance Director Apollo High School, Glendale, AZ

“Don’t Just Reach For The Stars . . . Talk, Meet &

Dance With Them!”

Exceeding Expectations!It was totally amazing! Both classes we took were fabulous with amazing teachers. We had

so much fun, were super sweaty by the end and continued doing the combinations from the

classes at different opportunities (bus stops, airport, etc.) Both shows were spectacular! Rock of Ages was really fun with great music and phenomenal

performers. Afterwards, Josh Sassanella, our guest artist and director of our ROCK OF

AGES Meet The Artist Dance Workshop, took us backstage to meet Constantine and go on

set - it was a great opportunity and we were certainly star struck!The ODC performance was seriously the best professional dance performance I have ever

attended. The level of technique and training of the dancers was rivaled by the perfection

of the choreography. I’m still not sure my students even really understand what they were

privileged enough to experience... San Francisco is beautiful with such a diverse culture and

our tour guide helped to open my students eyes to the city and to the variety of life outside

of Chandler, AZ... I know it may all sound super-rosy, but we really had the best tour I’ve

been on to date and can’t imagine how it could have been any better!Jacque Genung-Koch, M. Ed.Basha Dance Program DirectorKinesis Dance CompanyChandler, AZ
