Why Dance at Gilliam Dance Project?
"If it hadn’t been for Miss Kara I don’t think my daughter would still be dancing! Not only does she want the girls to be great dancers, she also wants them to be great at life. Miss Kara is more than a dance teacher, she is a mentor, counselor, friend and family." - S. Macklin
"GDP is not only a dance company, it's truly a family. My daughter loves being a part of the company. Mrs. Kara teaches them discipline, accountability, and responsibility. Mrs. Kara embodies a passion for dance that's contagious and her creativity and work ethic is unmatched!!!" - T. Hopkins
"We have been with GDP since they first opened in February 2021, first with my oldest daughter and now with my middle daughter. They absolutely love it! The instruction they receive is outstanding, and they have the best staff! I highly recommend GDP for dancers of all levels. - T. Herbert
"My daughters have been dancing at Gilliam Dance Project since Miss Kara opened her doors in 2021. We could not be happier! They have grown so much, both as dancers and as people. We highly recommend Gilliam Dance Project to anyone looking for dance classes for children in Kent County, Delaware!" - A. Russell
