"Schools of dance are only as good as the teachers they have on their faculty because it is the individual teacher who develops and trains each dance student. Lisa Gold’s North Shore School of Dance has an unparalleled reputation on the Shore for providing its students with the finest teachers available in the Chicago area in all forms of dance, many of whom are associated with our most prestigious dance companies. NSSD maintains its rich lineage of dance education that spans nearly 35 years of outstanding service to the community through its training of young aspiring dance students on the North Shore. It is a school of high integrity and professionalism."
