"TDC has always felt like home since day one. Everyone at TDC is supportive and welcoming to newcomers. On my first day, although I was little, I remember feeling welcomed and loved by everyone. TDC isn’t just about dancing. Although dancing plays an important part, TDC also has helped me grow as a person. We have multiple team bonding days where everyone has so much fun. I have made so many friends at TDC I will have for the rest of my life. TDC has had and will continue to have a huge impact on me. TDC is home."
