Family Testimonials

Jazz dancer, young, happy

Mom: Salisa Bruce
Dancer: Saleah

I've known Sharmayne for years! I saw how great she was with the kids in the arts department at our church, so I knew my daughter would be in good hands when I brought her to Mayne Attraction.  Saleah loves it here, and her growth as a dancer continues to amaze me!

Mom: Kendra Agee
Dancer: Evelyn

I’m thankful that Evelyn and I are a part of Mayne Attraction, and that she regularly interacts with people who truly care about her wellbeing.  I believe her training will help her in many ways, even outside of dance.

creative movement, performance dance

Mom: Brandi Jones
Dancer: Johanna

I loved how welcomed Jo and I felt when we first met Mrs. Sharmayne!  Mayne Attraction is the perfect place for Jo, and her technique continues to grow each dance season.  She spends so much time here, and has made so many friends, that Mayne Attraction feels like a second home!
