Take a second to read what some of our families are saying about Hampden Performing Arts Centre:

"Sandy, I want to send the highest of compliments to you for such an amazing recital. It brought me right back to my dancing years, it was wonderful. Thank you for a fabulous first year of dance. Aria soaked it all in, she loved every moment, and she said she wants to dance forever. Her confidence is way up and I have you and your team to thank for that! I knew she had it in her, our hearts are so full."
Lanelle Bukowski
"We have been going to HPAC for 6 years and HPAC has been nothing but a wonderful experience for both of my kids. Over the last year we have experienced some health concerns with my daughter, Brooke. My daughter, Brooke, says “I love dance because Miss Sandy makes me feel safe.”
She has helped us in dance and outside of dance. They don’t make a teacher better than her! We have been blessed for her to be such a huge part of our lives. When Brooke started she was extremely shy and unsure of herself. Today, Brooke is confident and helps Miss Sandy & her peers when they need assistance.
I have introduced several friends to HPAC and everyone has loved their experience! If you want a dance facility that becomes you family, HPAC is the place! HPAC thanks for all the love you have given us."
Missy Fatse
"My daughter has been dancing at the HPAC for 9 years. She loves to dance and has made many friends there over the years. The perfect balance of fun, encouragement, discipline, and professionalism that Sandy & Jackie provide has allowed my daughter to thrive and grow in confidence & skill level. We love and highly recommend our HPAC family."
L. McMahon
"All 3 of our daughters have enjoyed learning and growing in their dance skills at the HPAC. Sandy is the most loving & encouraging dance teacher we could have ever asked for. We highly recommend HPAC!”
Samantha Mozdzanowski
"My daughter, Bella, started at HPAC in September 2021 and I am so very grateful for that. The joy and confidence dance brings to her is undeniable and I attribute much of that to the environment Sandy and her team create, the positive influence they are and the passion they instill in their dancers. As Bella enters her 3rd year, her passion, commitment & determination to grow artistically in this lane of her life are unwavering. As a parent, seeing your child be a part of a community like the one she belongs to at the HPAC is soul filling to say the least. I recommend HPAC any chance I get. Thanks so much for lighting the dance fire in my girl. Looking forward to this coming year and all of those I am sure will follow. "

“We feel so lucky to have found Ms. Sandy and HPAC. Sandy is caring & encouraging while still instilling discipline and structure. A welcoming and inclusive studio not only fostered friendships between the kids, but also the adults and caregivers. The price is reasonable, there are multiple days & times, and summer camps are available. HPAC was the first community we joined when we moved to Hampden County, and I’m so glad we did!”
Adrienne Zdaniewski
“A phenomenal dance studio that has brought so much joy, passion, confidence, and fun to my life. The owner, Sandy, takes it upon herself to not only make each dancer feel engaged, but also takes the time to befriend all students and bring out the best in all these talented kids. I attended this studio for 15 years and will be sending both my girls as soon as they are old enough!”
Tamer DaSilva
“My daughter loves it here. She is learning and having fun. Thanks so much!!”
Becky A.
“We have been a part of the HPAC family for 15 years and counting. Miss Sandy is not only the owner and teacher of the HPAC, but she is a mentor, a mom, a friend and a caring individual to our children. The HPAC is a friendly welcoming happy place for our kids. I highly recommend the Hampden Performing Arts Center to anyone interested in dance. “
