Testimonials
The University of Iowa Dance Forum has provided a wonderfully inspiring, creative and magical world of movement for my son since he was 2 and 1/2. The UI Youth Ballet has provided a fantastic platform for his desire to dance; the classes and performance have allowed him to grow as both a dancer and as an individual and to become responsible for himself but also to shine.
