Susan Welch Kennedy, VA

OMG one word… AMAZING! What an incredible place! My kids just took a week long summer camp and loved every minute. Jazz and her staff are wonderful. They had an amazing time and I actually was just a little jelly… hmmm they might need an adult camp . They learned so much and even how to sew! How awesome is that?! I just can’t say enough positive things. My kiddos will definitely enroll in camp here next summer!

Gene "Eubie" Bryant, VA

Thank you all so much for putting this camp together. My babies loved every minute of it. They actually wanted to attend more than one session. I think this has really sparked something in each of them. They’re already asking about next year…and I have NO reservations about their attendance for next summer (maybe even two sessions next time).

Tricia Connell, VA

MTS can do NO wrong! My 12 year old son is enrolled in DJing classes at MTS and is seriously benefiting and growing from the knowledge they offer. I absolutely adore the staff and our experience with this institute so far! My family and I are and will forever be thankful for MTS!!! Simply THE BEST!!!!
