What a great studio! My daughter danced at the Patti Schmidt Dance and Exercise Center for 15 years! She started at 3 years old and just ended this past spring because she went away to college. My daughter took all different types of dance classes there; ballet, jazz, tap, and pointe. She performed in The Nutcracker Ballet and she was part of the Half Time show for the Harlem Globetrotters at Nassau Coliseum. She enjoyed every moment of it! After 15 years, I am going to miss going to the annual dance recitals. I have enjoyed each one, from watching the little ones just learning to dance to the very talented older dancers. The recitals give the dancers a wonderful feeling of accomplishment and self confidence. Patti herself is a wonderful woman and really cares about the children. It feels like family.
