Testimonial
"GRSD’s instructors and supportive atmosphere has had a tremendous positive impact on my daughter. Her confidence and love for dance has skyrocketed.
Jon Upleger has a unique and special way he instructs and interacts with students. He gives critiques in a way that is positive but impactful. He cares for students as a whole, focusing on the dancers technique, physical health and mental health. He is a positive role model and I am grateful he is in my child’s life."
