A Step Above Dance & Music Academy LLC

A Step Above is a really positive place. It's like a big family! The staff are well trained and care about the students. There are classes for the new and recreational dancer as well as the more serious pre-professional dancer. There are classes for all ages, even adults.

A Step Above is a fantastic dance studio. My daughter has been dancing here for about six years and loves it. She has wonderful teachers and has made lots of friends. The quality of instruction is excellent and I would highly recommend it. We travel to this studio when there are much closer ones because we feel it is such a good studio.

A Step Above is a great place for beginning, intermediate, advanced, and recreational dancers. The curriculum is always age- and level-appropriate and students love it here! My son has been dancing at ASA for 10 years and is a member of the Studio Company. Our experience has been nothing but positive!

Our daughter has been dancing at A Step Above for over seven years. We absolutely love the positive environment, the professional staff and the beautiful building. This studio is truly a gem! Our daughter has never once asked to stay home from dance. She adores her teachers and the friends she has made at the studio. We highly recommend A Step Above!

Our daughter has been taking lessons from A Step Above for nearly 10 years. I guess that says it all doesn't it. We keep coming back. She is also involved in the affiliated non-profit company A Step Beyond and loves it.



For our daughter this is a fantastic outlet for teen energy and a great social environment outside of her school.

A Step Above is the best dance studio in the area! The teachers are professional and provide quality instruction for all types of dancers whether recreational or competitive. They spend a great deal of time teaching proper dance technique and terminology and don't just "teach to the dance" as some studios do. The studio has a set curriculum and dancers progress according to their ability, not just by age or to keep parents happy. Their competitive dance company always scores very well at local and national dance competitions. The studio is very organized and parents are well informed thanks to the caring, hands-on director and excellent front desk staff. A Step Above also offers professional private piano and voice lessons that rival any others in the area.

ASA is a great place for learning, growing, and dancing. My dancer has been there since she was 3. The teachers are educated, caring, and always offer wonderful advice. The front desk staff are helpful informed and always willing to spend time answering questions. The director is accessible and is the most organized owner I have ever encountered. I have friends that had their children dancing at other studios. I always recommend ASA to them. Once they make the switch they are pleased with their choice.

most organized dance studio in madison. always keeps families informed and delivers quality dance education. Its not just fun class, my student acutally became educated during each class and I feel it was a great investement.
