I love this studio! I started ballet classes as an adult beginner when my kids were taking classes…read more Elena is a fantastic teacher and genuinely cares about each of her students. The small class sizes mean personal attention and getting to know fellow students. The environment is supportive while also enourgaging you to challenge yourself. Taking classes twice a week has kept me in shape and I've progressed past where I had ever imagined starting as an adult with no previous ballet training. There are performances twice a year for those who would like to participate and always a lot of fun and gives students a goal to work towards and to demonstrate what they've learned. I am so glad I found this place!

My daughters (and wife) have been taking dance classes at the school for a year. I just left the…read more100th anniversary performance. What a fantastic production. You can see the motivation of the students, motivation driven by a far more motivated owner/instructor - Emily. I had a front row seat, far right. Not an ideal seat for a show, but I was uniquely positioned because I could see behind the curtain. I could see Emily. Most of the time she had her typical serious demeanor. But every once in a while, I'd see a smile. It wasn't for anyone. No one was looking at her, the girls were performing. But in that moment, I could see her joy, her dedication, her passion. What a beautiful smile. And what joy she's given our daughters - and certainly to many others. I'd post a picture, but "NO PICTURES ALLOWED!"... so I don't have any. Highly recommended. Not just for the instruction, but equally for the love of the art.

I also love that the policy on masks is that they are allowed in class AND allowed in performances as long as they are of an appropriate style. So for the families where this is important, this is a place to go! There is plenty of parking around the studio and lots of different classes and times to choose from. You can watch the students dance from a tv in the waiting lobby. The staff is friendly and they provide you the costumes for each performance. The only thing that kind of bothers me is the very long flight of stairs that you need to walk to get to the studio but it just means I get to actually get some exercise in! lol

For a dance studio, they do have a good amount of positives…read more They offer an average price of $18 for a drop-in class (whether it's for adults or youth classes). The instructors try to be inclusive and are consistent (meaning they teach more than one class every week). They all have a wide range of dance experience and you will not be disappointed by their expertise. You will not find difficulty joining or building a community as there are a lot of regulars from the area that are nice. The building itself is spacious and rental prices seem to be good as well (minimum starting price is $20 an hour). The different spaces they have varies between 4 rooms (Warehouse and Studios A/B/C). There is a small lot and if that's full, there is a decent amount of street parking. It's close to the freeway entrance and plenty of food and other attractions around the area. However, with some positives also comes some areas to improve upon. With the limited parking and street parking, I would recommend coming at least 10-15min early to make sure you can arrive on time to class. Their system tends to be slow at times and you may miss the first 3-10 minutes of class trying to look for parking or wait due to slow check in times. The other focus is the variety of dance classes (in terms of competency levels and styles of dance). It seems that this studio focuses more on hip-hop, Salsa, and Contemporary classes being the most accessible (sprinkled with a couple of jazz, heels, and k-pop once a week). They have the same round of teachers and it would be nice to try different dance styles and genres. This studio definitely can continue to upgrade and grow more! Would try this place at least once and see if it's your vibe.

Beginning to advanced- all levels are included!…read moreTheir instructors really help break down the steps, moves, etc to help you know the basics of each type of dance.

Really dislike how the teacher spends so much time talking about random things during the class…read moreinstead of focusing her time on teaching. I once timed her, and she spent 48 minutes of class time bragging and glorifying her old-day history! Plus people in the Chinese dance classes are obnoxious, trying to correct your moves on the side while bullying you. They pretty much act like they are the teacher! It's pretty messed up in this learning environment where the teacher doesn't teach and that the students trying to show off their mediocre dance skills I don't think I can tolerate this kind of toxic learning environment much longer. I'm planning to quit after their upcoming performance.

I had to go to another studio to undo all of the bad habits and poor training I received at this studio. It took me two years to retrain at a studio that had a faculty that teaches ballet with proper credentials. If you want to participate in jazz and hip hop just for fun this is the place for you. If you want to learn ballet technique run don't walk to another studio.

We couldn't be more thrilled with our experience at Petite Feet under the guidance of Ms.Liz. My…read moredaughter has been dancing with her for two amazing years, and the transformation has been truly beautiful. The age 3-5 class was such a warm, imaginative introduction to movement, it felt playful, expressive, and anything but rigid. Once she stepped into the age 5-7 classes, Ms.Liz gently incorporated classical ballet elements that deepened our daughter's technique while still honoring her personal rhythm and joy. What truly makes Ms.Liz exceptional is her playful/nurturing presence and socio‑emotional awareness. She creates a safe and encouraging atmosphere where kids feel seen and heard, building both their confidence and their love for dance. Our daughter has blossomed, not only physically, but emotionally--discovering freedom in movement, increased self‑assurance, and a real, wholehearted passion for dance. If you're looking for a teacher who blends artistry with empathy, someone who understands that movement is as much about the heart as it is about technique, Ms.Liz at Petite Feet is a rare gem. Highly recommend!

Classes are so imaginative and educational -- Ms Liz brings in fun props, books, etc. to make each class unique and engaging. It's so much more than a dance class -- we learn about different traditions, holidays, and cultures. She is an incredible teacher; she makes sure every child gets a chance to shine in the class. She is one of the most patient and understanding teachers we've had! My daughter has a lot of energy so we enroll her in a number of activities but Ms Liz is by far her favorite teacher. :) At the end of the spring session, she coordinated a small recital with costumes which was super cute and a wonderful experience. I always recommend Petite Feet Dance to all of our friends and am glad it's now a bit closer to us in Pasadena, although I'd be willing to make the drive to wherever she teaches!
