I just wanted to say that I think your program is great on so many levels, so complementary to the other performing they have done. It really instills self confidence in a fun environment. Maya was shy at first in your class, but I am so happy to see she is coming along so fast. I truly think she needed this program and I think it will make a true difference in her life. And we love your singing voice, so strong and full of interpretative strength. We also like the way you give ideas to the kids on how to build a character, suggesting points without imposing or criticizing their own material. Thank you for doing such a great job and for having the kids.

I wanted to send you a note to tell you what an amazing job you (and the kids) did on Saturday. The performance was so cute and on a personal note, I know I wasn’t the only one that got emotional during the theme song when the kids did sign language and spoke to following their dreams! You have such an amazing presence with them and I can tell your interest is heart-felt. As you know, this was our first year with Up With Kids and I’m so impressed with the outcome. Hannah learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed participating. Most importantly, she’s picked up a sense of confidence and self-expression that I’ve never seen before. I love it! Thank you so much for all you did for her. We’re looking forward to signing back up in the fall!

Thank you, thank you, oh thank you for all you do for the kids. What an outstanding teacher and coach you are. Hailey has so enjoyed both Brave and Tangled so much. I've thoroughly enjoyed learning all the songs along with her. What a wonderful program for children. Keep up the good work!

I am just writing to say thanks for setting JT off in such a great direction with his singing and dancing and acting. He LOVES it and we often quote you when he is working on things. Just last week we were driving to an audition at the U of U and we did your warm-ups in the car on the way. He ended up getting a part in the Youth Theatre production and he's super excited. I don't think he would have had the confidence to audition were it not for your excellent, positive, fun teaching. Thank-you!

I wanted to thank you for your dedication and the WONDERFUL opportunity you provide for our kids! It's not often that you come across a teacher who is so passionate, caring and just loves what they do so much! It shows with every interaction you have with the kids! I am so glad to have "found" you and your wonderful company. Ava enjoyed every minute and I think has found her passion (although we always knew she was a bit of an actress)! I can’t wait to see what is to come as she grows with "Up With Kids!" Thanks Again!!

Thank you so much for everything this year! This year was Aubrianna's 8th play with Up With Kids. What you said on Saturday about your wish to teach kids confidence to do whatever they want in life really rings true for her. She has always been a cautious kid, and she used to be a little shy in new situations. Throughout the years in this program she has not only become able to perform and even sing in front of a crowd, but you can see it in her face that she is comfortable and happy up there, really enjoying herself. This will serve her well throughout her life.

Thank you for being so wonderful with Max. I know he can be shy and quiet and unsure, but in his own words he has learned to, "get up in front of people and speak without being scared." I know that he learned many other things this year at Up With Kids, but these two things alone are a huge deal for him. Thank you, thank you, thank you! He is excited to do Up With Kids again next year. He really does have a passion for acting. Thank you for giving him a taste of acting and what it is all about. You are wonderful. We will look forward to seeing you in the Fall.

Logan had an amazing experience being part of Up With Kids and working with Miss Lori! Logan is a performer by nature and this allowed him the opportunity to learn lines and be part of a real performance! I really feel like his experience has built his confidence and allowed him to be more creative! We can’t wait for another fabulous year where our little ones can shine, build confidence and grow!! Yay for Up With Kids!!!
