"My daughter took a dance class with Ms Hannah at the Legacy (Magnolia) . It was the perfect supplement for an acting student that didn’t want to do full blown dance. They did some actual conditional while learning the basics of dance class, it ended with a sweet recital. The communication from the program was amazing and the response for the director was very prompt. I would highly recommend this program."
