“Okay! Seriously…that was the cutest thing I’ve ever seen tonight! Those little cheerleaders are so precious!…You are wonderful with them! They adore you…
It just made me so glad Keily is taking from you. When you have someone your child looks up to so much, you sure want it to be someone who is a positive influence in their life!…Plus you are a phenomenal teacher. You are so great with the kids. I think you are perfect with them. Anyway, I just had to tell you how completely impressed I was tonight!”

“My little Madison said today, ‘Mommy, I can do all things through Jesus Christ’ and I said, ‘That’s right honey, where did you learn that?’ to which she responded, ‘My Mrs Julie taught me.'”

“This was the most uplifting, encouraging, God-honoring and worshipping recital I have ever attended. And then just the talent and skill aspects: Wow! How did you accomplish all that?! Each song, each dance, each costume–Truly amazing Julie. You really are a blessing to each of us, and it is an honor to know you and be a part of your dream. My family loved the evening as well. They also noted your skill and commitment to God and children.”

Emily Boyd

“First of all, thank you so much for what you have done with Emily. I could not have been prouder of my precious grand-daughter… I was so shocked when she actually tumbled and danced tonight after not doing anything last night. Then when we left to go home, she insisted on riding with me. In the quiet of the car, I heard her say as clearly and plainly as could be – ‘I can do all things through God who gives me strength.’ I asked her where she heard that and she told me that you taught it to her. Thank you- from the bottom of my heart.”
