They truly care about the student and will foster their love of dance no matter what. I have friends at other studios that are frustrated with the lack of communication and quality of training they are receiving there but I have always been so impressed with Marianne Kelley's attention to detail and organization. The studio is bright and welcoming as are all of the instructors and students. You feel supported and valued as a dancer. The variety of classes offered are second to none. The atmosphere in the studio is so positive. In a world where negativity is constantly thrown at us and our children I am so grateful to have somewhere to take my kids where they have a sense of belonging. I HIGHLY recommend Marianne Kelley's School of Dance!

My daughter had a really bad experience with this dance studio. We were coming from another dance…read morestudio and the instruction was not at the level we were used to. One of the teachers lost her temper and scolded my daughter when her hair came out of her hair band. When my daughter tried to explain, she was told she was being disrespectful and forced to apologize in front of the entire class. My daughter was humiliated. After three weeks, she was so discouraged that she refused to go back. Also, be careful about their refund policy, I cancelled classes on September 25th, but they still billed me for October. When I complained, they refused to give a refund. I ended up paying over $600 for three weeks of classes. It was a really bad experience.

Although, I will say, ELLE the house manager (very young girl) could use a teaching on possibly being more friendly. The other staff members from what we can tell are very nice and accommodating. Parking is fine and it is so convenient to the interstate. Wish there was a "senior discount" on the tickets though. Being a senior myself, that would be great. All in all, a wonderful neighborhood venue for theater.

I recently saw their musical production of A Christmas Carol and loved it! It was an inexpensive ticket to their theatre on Hamilton for some great entertainment. It's obvious to me that they work very hard to provide a quality production and these kids have talent! My only other production was a Jason Mraz fund-raising show last year that also included some of the students' accompaniment. Support Sparc!

I absolutely adore Virginia Tango. If you are looking to start dance lessons, look no further,…read moretango is the way to go. Anna and Cristian are the dynamic duo dream dance teachers. They make dancing fun for any level. My first interaction with them was a free tango class at a PR event. Their dance and teaching chemistry left me in awe. I knew I wanted to take classes with them at some point. Fast forward to end of 2025. My fiancé (who "does not dance") fell in love with tango after a free trial. I adore dancing so was super excited he was interested. We ended up signing up for their Super Beginner Easy Start Course Tango class that took it as a slow pace for non-dancers. This was the perfect intro. We then decided to sign up for their monthly tango membership where we take their Level 100 classes. At this time, they have Level 100 classes on Mondays and Wednesdays at 7pm. After class they do a really cool technique class called Tango Power Start. This place is more than a dance studio, it's a community. They offer milongas too (an Argentine social dance event). My fiancé and I are the type of people who like being able to walk or bus to a place, we live in the city and this is in Midlothian. We love this studio so much that the drive is worth it for us. I highly recommend taking tango classes here. You'll learn so much and have lots of fun in the process.

Virginia Tango is a must-try for the Midlothian, heck, the Richmond community. Anna and Christian…read moreare the co-owners and instructors for one of the most beautiful dance styles in the world. They are decades-long studiers of this beautiful art and are beyond prepared to break it down to any level of student, whether you have a dance background or are a super-beginner (like me). Within an hour you'll not only find yourself lost in the lesson and having fun, but you'll feel entirely confident in your ability to pick it up and... you'll like be hooked. The space is very nice. A private glass-walled studio in a cool part of town, near the Village of Midlothian. There's also nearly endless parking. I can't say enough about the kind and genuine nature of the instructors and their ability to share their world with you as a student. Classes are based on a semester style schedule and are very well priced. A+ 100% 5-stars

Of the traditional (aka Bikram) yoga studios I've practiced with over the years, Hot Yoga Richmond…read moreis hands-down the very best. Here's the scoop: 1. Multiple instructors, all of whom are excellent teachers and true to the 26-and-2 dialog/script during the yoga classes. All are experienced, attentive, and clearly happy to be teaching. All bring their unique focus and vibe, so class always feels fresh. 2. Studio is bright and clean. Temperature and humidity are maintained at the recommended temps for both the hot yoga and the other classes (e.g., hot Pilates, Sunday evening yin/Nidra). The heating system is relatively quiet, and the air is gentle--doesn't blow/blast on you like heaters at some studios. Parking is free and plentiful. 3. Showers are clean and well stocked with body wash, shampoo, conditioner. 4. Students include a diverse range of body shapes, fitness levels, ages, genders, and ethnicities. Everyone can feel comfortable and welcome. I think this is important to mention because I (60+f) have felt a little out of place in a couple of other studios where everyone was overwhelmingly young, fit, female, and white. Lots of different people here and all friendly and welcoming. 5. Studio is committed to the original 26-and-2 postures (traditional Bikram Yoga) in the hot yoga classes--important for those of us who have personally experienced the healing of this particular sequence/practice. They also offer Hot Pilates and a few other classes, and those classes are also top-notch. (Try the monthly Sound Bath) 6. Supportive studio. All the instructors recognize and reiterate the importance of coordinating breath and body. Also, there's never pressure to go deeper into postures than is safe. Instructors regularly remind students to breathe calmly and attentively. They also do a great job of re-emphasizing the need to listen and heed the instructions for a safe practice. As Victor (teacher and co-owner) regularly points out, "Yoga is a practice, not a performance." 7. Cost is reasonable, especially if you can manage to pay for a year of unlimited yoga up front, but even the packages are quite reasonable if you practice 2-3 times/week. 8. Healing. Many practioners of this particular 26-and-2 yoga will attest to its incredible healing and healthfulness. In a 90-minute class, the postures (including breathing) and the heat work together to develop strength and balance, provide aerobic work, and target common problem areas such as digestive and spine/back. , far more than just a great workout--it's also self-physical therapy and amental/psychological practice. 9. Since most of the above comments are focused on the Bikram yoga, I'll add that their Hot Pilates classes will kick your hiney (in the best way). The music varies every time, and the specific exercises also change up, which is nice. These classes work really well for me to develop more strength which in turns gives me a stronger yoga practice, especially in the yoga balancing postures. In summary, Hot Yoga Richmond is a 10-star studio, and it's the perfect place to heal if you need healing or get/stay strong and flexible no matter who you are or where you are on your journey.
