Rated 5.0 My daughter is an NDA alumni and it was a defining activity for her. It helped her get into her #1 college choice as well auditioning as part of an arts degree. Niosha is like family to us!
Rated 4.0 My daughter is 11 and has been dancing for seven years. Dance is her passion. Is this the school for her? How is the program - is it supportive, innovative, creative? Are the talented older kids pushed into competition, or is there a non-competition, developmental track? How are the other kids - supportive, or cliquey?
Rated 5.0 Niosha joon, thank you so much for all your help and all you've done for our wedding. Reza and me are so glad to have you as a wedding coordinator and entertainment planner. Your sweet personality has really helped to make things run smoothly. We really appreciate your willingness to help out wherever needed.

Rated 5.0 amazing teaching technique great instructors Persian dance at its best good workout too students have fun and learn at the same time I like that they perform at events too they have two performance teams
Rated 5.0 I recently worked with Niosha to plan a Persian wedding ceremony and 30th wedding anniversary party. Finding and collaborating with Niosha and her talented team of dancers was the best decision I made! Our wedding/celebration included many of the traditional elements of a Persian wedding along with dance performances by NDA and a special dance performance by me and my daughters, choreographed by Niosha. Without exception, all of our guests commented that they were thoroughly entertained throughout the evening and were thrilled to be introduced to an authentic Persian celebration. Niosha is efficient, organized, professional, calm and sweet and a wonderful collaborator. Members of her dance team are lovely talented young women whom any young girl would surely aspire to emulate.
