What do you LOVE about Dance?

In the spirit of Valentines Day, we asked what you love about Dance, Tonawanda Dance Arts and our TDA Team, and your responses were heart-warming. We loved reading, re-reading and re-reading again the responses that came in so much, that we decided we needed to share some of them with you!

Here is what you told us you love about...
