Avanti has space for anyone. Embodying inclusivity, creativity, education, and plenty of fun, this dance studio feels like a place my daughter will grow to call a second home.

From the very first day, we felt so much love, support, and guidance. My daughter truly enjoys every class and looks forward to being there each time. They do wonderful activities for the kids, and she has already made so many friends. Being on the team has made her even happier and more confident. Avanti is such a positive, caring, and supportive place.

This is my daughter's second season at West Coast. We are so incredibly glad we made the switch…read more The environment is so welcoming. Which is difficult to find in competitive dance. The families welcomed us in with open arms, the dancers support each other and the teachers support each other. I believe this starts from the top down with the ownership and management. Paula is extremely hands on with the teachers, students and families. And it shows. She doesn't care just about their dancing but cares about their character as an individual. The quality of the teaching staff is exceptional; with the primary focus on technique. But they continue to grow and expand their teaching and choreography styles.They treat the kids as the individuals they are and unify them as a team as well. In the current COVID-19 environment everything has been moved online. The entire staff has been energetic and motivating. They have provided a sense of stability in an unstable environment for our kids. Every week the teachers take time with each kid just to check in and see how they are doing. If you want a positive, creative and safe environment for your child to experience dance than I would recommend West Coast.

The dancers support and encourage each other and the parents are kind and helpful. These are competitive dancers who strive for excellence but never at the cost of character or class. The tone is set from the leadership of Miss Paula who runs the studio like a in impressive CEO that can also wear the hat of mentor, artist, and friend. I am constantly blown away by the talent and reach of the staff who is well rounded on style, technique, and has a proven track record of developing dancers to the highest levels. They take an interest in the dancers personally and have created a community our whole family enjoys being a part of. They way that the business pivoted during the Covid-19 shutdown is remarkable! They quickly acclimated to virtual while keeping the positive attitude and commitment to excellence we've come to expect from them. When we first started at WC I would not have imagined that dance would become such a high value for us, but because of our West Coast experience it is something we eagerly remain connected to and proud to be a part of! I could go on and on about the costumes, the wins, the opportunities, the conditioning that keeps the dancers safe, the communication, etc...Even my sons have taken classes and loved it! I would give them 100 stars if I could!

Matt's classes are such a warm, welcoming way to start (or end!) the day. Grateful for him, and for the communal safe space that he has built.

I'll definitely be back to her Saturday morning class and look forward to trying some other classes! They sound/look so fun! They're at new address: 2075 Newport Blvd, Suite 101, Costa Mesa!

My partner and I pretty much had no dance experience, formal or informal dancing. We decided to…read morereach out to Bella Ballroom as we wanted to have an acceptable first dance at our wedding 3 weeks later. We tried practicing by ourselves first, but found that their expertise saved us hours of researching time and their instructions were crucial in quickly refining the dance. We were paired with Mallory who was incredibly knowledgeable and such a pleasure to be around just as the other team members were in making our experience comfortable as amateurs. We had a couple moves to focus on, with the main difficult part being the waltz section. We were taught in an understandable manner through 5 sessions within 2 weeks. The basics of the moves were covered, and every part of our choreography was refined with insightful tips and instruction. We were able to voice any concerns and ideas, and it was a professionally taken into account for our needs. In the end, we locked it down enough to fully perform the dance well enough. The rest would just be keeping it up with practice on our own until the big day. The pricing is reasonable for an important event if you want it to look good. As it was for a wedding, we found the results to be well worth it. The team at Bella Ballroom are great instructors for anyone interested in improving at dancing.

What could have been stressful turned into one of the most fun and memorable parts of our wedding planning. If you're looking for someone who is talented, kind, and genuinely invested in making your moment special, we cannot recommend Thomas highly enough!
