My child has been with COA since she was 6 years old. Who is now 10. When she began with COA she had no dance background and started with the basics. The coaches were patient with her and molded her into a competitive majorette dancer. Although she is still learning and growing she has confidence, stage presence, skills, and athleticism. She’s also built a sisterhood with each dancer. She enjoys traveling with the team and hitting some of the biggest stages in the industry. Every year she tries to perfect her craft and reach new heights. Her coaches are just as motivated as she is to see her grow and reach new levels. She has aspirations of attending an HBCU in the future and continuing majorette style dancing. COA has a reputation of dancers meeting HBCU dance coaches as well has had past recruitments to colleges. Without a doubt I believe there’s no other program that I trust my child’s future with other than COA.
