Her students won numerous awards through competitions, participated in many community events and fundraisers, multiple shows a year and traveled for other opportunities related to dance education and performance.

Lyndsey is married with two daughters Gracelyn and Isabel. Her husband’s job in the Navy brought them all here two years ago and after missing dance decided to step into a studio again.

I am so happy we made the switch to Dynamic Dance! My daughter has learned more in the last month at Dynamic Dance Center than the past 3 years at her other dance studio. The instruction is phenomenal! Ms. Jessica and Ms. Lizzy are simply amazing! They pay such close attention to each child, ensuring proper form and technique. You can tell they are dedicated to making sure each child excels. I can’t say enough good things! We love Dynamic Dance!

Our daughter started dancing with Dynamic Dance Center after dancing at another studio for a few years. Instantly we were welcomed into the DDC family! The staff is so knowledgeable and supportive! My daughter was interested in competitive dance and DDC has made that dream come true! We are forever grateful to DDC and look forward to many more years!
