“The first word that comes to mind when thinking about the Citadel Dance and Music Center is excellence. After spending over ten years in both the dance program and the music program with our kids, I can easily say that the teachers in both programs are unequaled. They are highly skilled professionals and it is easy to see that they want to pass their love of dance and music on to their students. “
