"This was our first year attending Sophisticated Productions and it is one of our favorite competitions! It ran on time, the staff was very professional and courteous, and the judging was fair. The best part about the competition was that each dancer received a trophy for every dance they did! My dancers were soooo excited when I passed out their trophies. We will definitely be back next year."

"As a studio director for the past 23 years I have become extremely selective when it comes to attending competitions. Through alot of trial and error I have come up with a short list of competitions which I feel meet or exceed my standards. Sophisticated Productions is one of these. I like that it falls in early March for us, it's a friendly, professional atmosphere where my students can put their new numbers out before a well educated group of judges. My hat is off to all involved with your organization and a big Thank You!"
