'Dynamic, Awesome, Entertaining, Educational…only begins to describe the presentation your company made to our students at Turtle Hook Middle School. Students were thoroughly engaged as they reminisced about their Hispanic cultures, or learned about the cultures of other Hispanic countries. Thank you for affording all of our students the opportunity to learn, have fun, and explore as we celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month. Ole!'

--Mrs Annette O’Ferrall, Principal, Turtle Hook Middle School, Uniondale NY

'We were impressed also by your talented and energetic dancers and musicians as they conveyed a sense of pride and passion in what they do. The interactive nature of the show demonstrated a true reflection of a company that is knowledgeable in providing cultural arts in education. Thank you most sincerely for a memorable day at Link!'

--Lynn Farry: Vice President Cultural Arts, Link Elementary School, New City NY

'Your two performances of Step Lively Please! Latin & Hispanic Heritage Celebration were a great introduction for our students to learn more about Spanish and Latin American cultures. Our students and teachers particularly enjoyed the audience participation involved with your program. The music and folklore of the performance, along with the colorful costumes, captured the children’s imagination and provided a starting point for continued activities in the classroom'

--Linda Friedman: Principal Walnut Street School, Uniondale NY

'On behalf of P.S. 76 students, parents and staff we appreciate the history behind each dance as well as the interaction with the students. I believe that our school community received a better knowledge of the multi-cultured heritage from an artistic prospective.'

Ms Schafenberg: Principal & Ms Franklin: Project Arts Liaison, P.S. 76 Long Island City, Queens, NYC

'Our whole school learned so much about African American cultural influences in current songs and dances of today as we watched, listened and moved along with you. The students had such a wonderful opportunity to participate in the dancing with the performers creating a truly, exciting experience. On behalf of T.G. Connors School, I send a heartfelt appreciation to the Phyllis Rose Dance Company for a wonderful show. Performances such as these make a positive difference in the lives of children'
