I loved taking tsp from Danene. She was still light on her feet and so positive with our adult class. She was truly a good friend. All of our class will miss her!

I took ballet, tumbling, and tap dance with Danene for several years in my youth. She made practicing fun and rewarding. I still have all of my pictures from the many recitals I was in. My cousin Danielle was in the same classes. We always had a great time learning from such a talented women. RIP Danene, prayers for the family.

Danene was an influence in my life, spent so many years at her studio. She was a teacher, friend and neighbor. And so talented. I remember when I watched Shureen on Saturday mornings, she was an angel. I was so sad to hear of her passing. My sympathy to your families and that you will always feel her love in your hearts

There are so many memories throughout the years. Danene had taught me dance since I was 5. My family had spent so many hours inside her dance studio. She really was the best dance teacher I could have ever asked for. Rest in peace.

Danene was a very special lady. She has known me since I was baby. She let me start dance with her at the age of 2 so my mom says. I was blessed with the best dance teacher ever. She was a very sweet, caring, and loving lady. I know she is in a better place now. I love you and alway will love you Danene! Rest In Peace! Xoxo Crystal!

I took dance class with Danene as an adult and I feel so fortunate to have met her. A sharp eye and no-nonsense teaching style meant her students were always eager to please her; but a smile from Danene made would make you feel like a million bucks. Danene was kind, intelligent, warm and vibrant. She was an animated storyteller and had a bit of a mischievous twinkle in her eye. She will be so missed, may she rest peacefully. Love you, Danene.
