Working at ndc has changed my life in ways I never thought possible. My staff and management have turned into my closest friends and family, and dancing brings a type of joy to my life I haven't found elsewhere. I am proud to say I am part of this organization, and even more thrilled I have the opportunity to motivate my students to do things they never saw possible.read more

Stefani is an excellent instructor that knows how to train someone with absolutely no prior experience. She is encouraging and can relate the dance steps to one with no prior knowledge. The other instructors seem similar in terms of welcoming new students and presenting the material. NDC of Franklin is easy to find and has plenty of room for group and individual classes. They are welcoming and work with each student on individual basis with a nice blend of single student and group lessons...with a clear set of objectives for each dance/level. I look forward to learning more.read more

When your looking for a place, a place with a great atmosphere, awesome music and an overall wonderful experience you can't go wrong with Gotta Dance. I never knew such a place existed even in Rapid City. Marilyn, Summer and Ryan are awesome, you couldn't ask for a friendlier bunch of people. I really enjoyed learning how to dance and I look forward to continuing as like they said, "If you can walk, you can dance!"
