Wow, where do I begin? I have had the absolute pleasure of working with Cortney since 2013. Her innovative and expressive choreography has taken my dance team to the next level every year (including a few state championships!), and I can’t imagine a season without her brilliant work. Her vast technical knowledge inspires my dancers to push beyond their potential and to constantly challenge the way to execute their technique. It also helps that she is a phenomenal dancer and can actually SHOW you what she wants! That’s what makes her unique (and AMAZING)! I wish that we lived in Minnesota, because we’d be at The Vibe Dance and Fitness DAILY. Cortney is the best!!
Hayley DuLong – Head Coach of Lake Oswego Dance Team, Portland Oregon
We have worked with Cortney for five years. We coach a high school dance team in WI and wanted to take our competition jazz routine to the next level, so we followed a referral and hired Cortney to choreograph and teach our team. She was phenomenal; her choreography was cutting edge and innovative; her work ethic was incredibly strong and influenced our whole team. She was highly professional, yet personable, and held our team members to high standards. Her creativity was evident, her pieces were a living, breathing thing…she would adapt and create on the spot if she thought something wasn’t working. The ability to command a room of 28 dancers, adapt and change in a moment’s notice, and see the big picture was impressive. As coaches, we were always amazed at how her mind worked. Her athleticism is awe inspiring…our dancers always begged her to demonstrate so they could watch her dance. She was extremely reliable, trustworthy, and communicative. Her choreography propelled our team to the top five in State Jazz and State Champion Runners- up for the past two years. Cortney is a total pro, and we highly recommend her!

Cortney is a true talent! Not only is she a gifted dancer but also a remarkable teacher who gets results. If you are serious about dance and want to work with top professionals, The Vibe is an outstanding place to train.

Jennifer James – Minnesota State Mankato Dance Team Head Coach
Cortney Colich was and will continue to be a great dance instructor for our daughter Lauren. She is one of those rare teachers who is able to find the individual strengths of each dancer and mold those strengths into a better dancer. She patiently coaxes the uniqueness out of each dancer to make them their best. She is also very energetic, fun, and passionate about dance. She was the breath of fresh air that kept our daughter excited about dance! We cannot wait to have Lauren continue to work with Cortney at Vibe Dance and Fitness!
