Miss Abigail, you run your studio in a way that is encouraging and uplifting, and it causes each student to strive to do their best, especially my daughter. You & your faculty care about all the students above and beyond just their dancing and you encourage them to strive for excellence and do their best in every area of their lives. Thank you so much for loving and caring for my daughter.

Abigail Fine is an inspirational, dedicated dance instructor who has truly made a difference in my daughter’s life, as well as in her dance technique. Abigail takes the time to evaluate her young dancers and work with them to create and achieve their goals and aspirations. My daughter has benefited greatly from Abigail’s tutelage and is looking forward to an exciting year at A Fine Dance Studio, both as an assistant teacher and a student.

"I LOVE Miss Abigail. I love doing tondue, pase, tondue, close." (says Leila, age 5)
We love Miss Abigail so much that when we found out she was opening her own dance studio, we left our old dance school just to follow her and have her again. She is professional, teaches when the appropriate terms (not "babied down" terminology for the younger kids) but also keeps it fun for the little ones. Bright and cheerful, she gets down to their level to be "with" them, rather than talking down to them. Plus, the dancing is age appropriate, especially with the hip-hop styles (keeping it appropriate for the young ones, rather than "teenage" type moves.). It's her professional quality and cheerful demeanor that is keeping us with her! it's worth the long drive from Sharon to be with Miss Abigail.

Miss Abigail is so passionate about her dancers. She works so hard to instill confidence as she is building their skills. She has nurtured my daughter's love for dance as well as her self esteem. I have the utmost respect for Miss Abigail and her entire team. I know my daughter's enthusiasm for dance will continue to grow at AFDS and I trust Miss Abigail with her dance education and so much more.

Hi Abigail, I just wanted to send you a quick email to let you know how much Sophie LOVED her dance class yesterday. She was so excited and said that it was the most fun that she had ever had in all her years of dancing. She even came home, turned on her ipod, and showed me everything that she had worked on. Thanks for a great class and we look forward to many wonderful years with you at AFDS.

Hi Abigail! Well, I must say Emma's class last Friday at 12:30 was fantastic!! I think the studio is spacious, clean and has a very welcoming feel. And your energy and commitment are really impressive. Thank you for being flexible and we look forward to a wonderful year.

Just wanted to let you know that Gabrielle and her friends are thrilled at your studio! I’m so glad we decided to change studios, your emphasis on fundamentals and a well rounded education is truly refreshing. I am wearing my new “A Fine…Mom” t-shirt right now and Gab loves her new “A Fine…Dancer” t-shirt, we love our new AFDS gear! Just wanted to let you know how happy we are with your dance studio, your motivation and your dedication to the kids and parents!

Abigail, I can’t believe it but Anna really loved the class she took with Hannah during your Bring A Friend Week and she has now convinced us to change from gymnastics to dance. At first we were hesitant because we really like the discipline gymnastics has brought to her life but when we found out that your combination programs include Ballet, Tap, Jazz and Acrobatics/Gymnastics, we never looked back.

The girls worked very hard today at dance and they looked great!!! We are ALL very happy with your program and are pleased to have found you opened your own studio.

Hi Abigail, just wanted to thank you for Katie's party on Saturday, she had an amazing time, as did all the girls! You are so good with them, ever thought about being a preschool teacher?! We really appreciate you guys making the party so easy and stress free for us too. Thanks again!

Abigail & Brandie, that dance from last week was fabulous! And I so appreciate the TLC you both always give my daughter. She has been a bundle of nerves again, and is her old shaky self. . . Your intensive weekend program class has been really good for her and has been therapeutic as well as already helped her to improve her flexibility and technical skill.
Hi Miss Abigail, just a quick note to say THANK YOU so much for the fabulous holiday party. We had no idea we were in for such a fantastic treat. I couldn’t believe it when I walked in how great everything looked. You obviously put an incredible amount of time, effort and energy (not to mention$$$!!!) into last night and I can’t believe you invited the entire studio, 250 kids! I wanted to make sure you knew how much the girls appreciate all of it. Kristina has done a lot of dance/gymnastics/etc classes and no one has ever done something so nice and so much fun for the girls. It will truly be one of her best holiday memories. I cannot begin to tell you how much fun she and her friend Julia had. THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU.....it was so incredibly nice and generous of you to do that. Thanks again and happy, happy holidays...
Kristina P. (and Katie), Needham, MA
