I attended a free dance class night for a Yelp review event. The teacher didn't really instruct and just started dancing. The class was really full and it was hard to see what she was doing and it was very hard to follow. A few songs she would just walk off mid dance. I am a beginner level dancer so it could have been my lack of knowledge but it was very confusing and I left feeling like I didn't know any more about the dance than when I started. It's possible it was challenging because there were so many people there and that paid classes are much better since this was a free event. read more

This studio has an amazing amount of space to host classes. It's well kept and clean and in the heart of downtown Decatur right off the square. I have been here for a number of classes and events and the issue I have has always been the same. PARKING!!! OMG!!!!! Parking at this studio is atrocious. They literally have 7 spots in the back of the building IF you can find it. Those spots are so tight that it also depends on the type of vehicle you drive....whether or not you will get a coveted spot. I adore this business, but PARKING......is horrible. If you come to an event after hours you will be able to park somewhere on the street for free; after 6 p.m. on weekdays. Other than that you may have to pay for parking and walk to the studio. Just prepare yourself and leave early enough to find a parking spot or take MARTA. You'll enjoy the classes you take here, you won't enjoy spending a lot of time looking for somewhere to park. read more

I took tango lessons at Several Dancers Core's Buenos Aires Tango Academy last summer. My dance partner and I both were beginners, so we attended the novice sessions that started around 7 p.m. on Tuesday nights. The instructor, a passionate, cologne-saturated man named Horacio, didn't give students much individual attention. Instead, we switched partners every few minutes--and the more experienced dancers gave me pointers on my posture and foot positioning. I found it rather frustrating, not because the class format wasn't helpful, but because tango is an extremely technical art that requires a lot of practice. If I found another partner, I would like to return, especially since I bought a class package and never punched all the holes in my card. After the beginners class, the experienced dancers came in for their hour-long session. It's amazing to sit and watch them seductively strut across the wooden floor. They're sort of like a family! read more

I was invited to a free Zumba party on a Sunday afternoon by someone who was going to be starting up regular lessons. I knew it was in Decatur Square so I walked around till I found it- it's right new to Raging Burrito. I first tried to go into the office space. But more than likely you want the studio space if you are going for a class or showcase. There are various parking options nearby: street, paid lots, Courthouse deck, and other decks. We were using the downstairs studio space. There is also one upstairs. The studio space had mirrors along the front so we could watch ourselves. There were only a few of us so the room provided plenty of space. We did have to position ourselves so that we would not run into the columns. The temperature was nice inside. I took a class schedule with me on the way out. There are a number of different classes that cater to different groups. Examples include various dance classes, capoeria (for both kids and adults), childbirth classes, musical theater, drumming, etc. You can reserve the space for an hour block of time. read more

Love the new space. Very spacious compared to the old space we were in. The downstairs studio is store front and unlike the old space I was practicing have mirrors. That's very helpful to see my stance while I'm playing. The acoustics there is very loud. I know next time to wear ear plugs. Upstairs is a smaller studio but no shoes allowed inside the upstairs studio. I go here for taiko drumming for Atlanta Taiko Project. Sessions are every second and fourth Sunday of the month. What makes it even better is the location. It shares its location with some nice bars and specialty shops. Bonus the MARTA station is right beside the studio. Parking is a bit tricky but if you park on the street its free on Sundays and holidays. read more

I've been dancing for a really long time. I trained and competed nationally all throughout high school, so I definitely know a good studio. I do performances in the city and needed a rehearsal space that wouldn't break my pockets, and I came across this studio almost a month ago and it's God sent. It's super spacious and hands down one of the most affordable rental spaces in Atlanta. Rose handles all rental inquiries and thus far, she's been super nice, super flexible and super accommodating. I did get a little lost the first time I used the space but I just Googled the courthouse and it took me straight there. It's right by the Waffle House. There are several parking options which is super nice and has also been free thus far (I generally use the space after 6pm). I've been telling all my dance friends about this place, it's almost unreal. If you need a space to rehearse or train, come here! read more

As a student here, I can say the manager has no consideration for her renter's - does things like putting flamenco dancers pounding on the floor overhead of other dance classes, which is VERY irritating...then our class got kicked out of our space for times when the manager had other events, even though our class was reserved there. Pretty unprofessional... read more
