Excellent for adult classes. Was nice to get back dancing and brush up on my skills. The teacher is…read moreso amazingly talented and nice. Very welcoming .

My experience was wonderful. As we return to campus year after year, it is evident that things are…read morechanging. I also know Tulane can't fill seats solely on Louisiana residents, so catering to the Wack Coast is unavoidable. The shift to toxicity, aggression, and the immaturity of attention seeking weirdness, over academia and higher learning, is pervasive. It hangs in the air like sewer gas. We do our best to see the positive and light, so we hold tightly to the olive and blue - and hope it's just a trend and that the cancer doesn't spread and take hold. Hear us now, oh Tulane, hear us, as we proudly sing to thee. Take from us our hearts devotion, thine we are and thine shall be.

Front desk woman was pretty snarky and didn't ask for vaccine cards in 2021 after I messaged them ahead of time to see if they require them (they said yes, then did not require them).

I attended my first class at this studio today and was injured when my foot slipped on the wood…read morefloors while executing a pirouette. The other dancers and the instructor responded by informing me how slippery their floors are. In the hundreds of ballet classes I've taken at several different studios, I have never witnessed someone injure themselves due to a slippery floor, as this is something a studio typically finds remedies for.

I wanted my toddler to participate in some sort of movement activity, whether that be dance or even…read moretaekwondo (which she did not enjoy). We attended the open house back in July and was given a tour and was provided an explanation of the activities (both tap and ballet will be practiced) in the class, as well as the events for the year. The studio is extremely clean, well lit and the staff are super nice. My little girl enjoys her classes, which is relatively well priced per month for the lessons. I do find that the products are on the pricier end, since all dancers must wear branded items, but it makes since for a unison front. They also have an annual recital and that comes at a price as well. Things do add up from all the wardrobe, photos, and recital.

Time to update the review, since it has been 3 years. My little one is now a dance pro (well, maybe…read morenot, but she loves going to dance each week). The staff is always helpful and friendly. They recently merged the 2 former studios into one massive, awesome studio at the corner of Manahattan and Lapalco. Next to PJs, which will become a weekly habit now. The new space has 2 dance rooms, 2 music rooms, and a huge parent seating area. All in all, a great place for kids dance (and music) lessons on the Westbank!

Great, very old school dance lessons for my 2 (when she started), now 3 year old daughter. They're…read moreteaching her to dance ballet, and tap; there's no hip-hop type dancing done in this building from what I have seen (not that there's anything wrong with that; just not what we were looking for). She loves it and we look forward to her first recital a few months from now!!! She tends to catch herself and correct her posture now and puts her hands on her hips and walks upright from time to time. It's adorable and very heartening to witness from this beautiful amazing little human!!! Again, this is a very old school dance academy; think checks dropped in boxes on the desk to pay the dues/fees. I'm pretty sure they haven't updated their location since the 80s... and I'm totally okay with that!!! Great place for your young son or daughter to learn the basics of proper dance!!! There is a young boy in my daughter dance class; dancing isn't just for girls y'all!!! One note... you don't actually get to watch the lessons. They go in back and learn and you see them 45 minutes later with a smile on all of their faces.

Took two classes here during National Dance Week with discounted rates and enjoyed both of them!…read more One was Hip Hop on Monday at 7, the other was movement on Wednesday at 5:30. The instructors went out of their way to make everyone feel welcomed, respected, and comfortable, the facilities were beautiful and well maintained, and the prices are reasonable, even without the discount. There is no parking lot bur street parking was really easy both times I went. If I had one suggestion for improvement it's that I wish there was less time spent on talking and introductions during class, and more time spent learning choreography (a one hour class turned into maybe 40 minutes of dancing) but it does allow for a community to develop. I'll definitely be back! Thanks Dancing Grounds! Update: I did realize the classes were 75 min not 60, but still you should expect to be in a circle talking / introducing yourself / saying affirmations for the first few minutes which might throw you if you weren't prepared for it or are introverted!
