    The dip - A man and woman are dancing indoors, with the man dipping the woman in a dance pose. The woman is wearing a white dress, and the man is in a dark suit.

    Dancing with Laurie was an amazing experience! My husband and I loved her positive attitude and ability to work with people of all levels of experience. She choreographed us a dance to "Everything" by Michael Buble and we were so, so happy with how our first dance turned out at our wedding. I would highly recommend Laurie to anyone especially couples who are getting married or to just anyone who wants to look good on the dance floor!

    Laurie is an amazing teacher! She's obviously talented at dancing, but she also very talented at teaching. We had such a fun time learning and practicing! My husband (then fiance) and I attended the 3-week wedding dance workshop, and we learned the foxtrot basics. We also opted for private lessons with Laurie because we wanted to do a choreographed dance to "L-O-V-E". She whipped up a simple routine that was very doable and looked great! We took 2 lessons with Laurie and did lots of practicing to a iPhone video of our lesson. We were very prepared! On our wedding day: Funny story is that our DJ played the wrong version of the song, which was 16 beats shorter than the original, so we didn't do our dramatic spin and dip ending (I'm still angry with the DJ). Despite that, we looked great at our dance and received a lot of compliments, including from my tiger mom (!).

    We loved learning to dance with Laurie! Seriously. My now husband was vehemently against dancing. We put off taking lessons for a while before our wedding, but finally it was a month before and there was no getting out of it - we needed lessons fast. Laurie took our tiny timeline and got us into a 3 week workshop and a couple private lessons to work on the routine for our first dance. She gave us confidence and made us look like we had some sort of an idea about steps. She is so good that my husband is agreeing to take more lessons for fun (!!!) this is unprecedented.

    Laurie was an amazing dance teacher. I took 2 private dance lessons with her (and my fiancé) and 1 private lesson with her and my father for my wedding. Each lesson was fun, easy to follow and we learned very practical dance moves and even remembered the dances after just a few lessons. I highly recommend Laurie and Dance Connection for any of your dancing needs!

    My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Laurie who helped us prepare our first dance for our wedding.

    If you get a chance to stumble upon this boutique studio, try the Mind & Body stretching class with…read moreStefaniya. Why? Let me share a little story of my day today. :O) I went to the local park, a block away from where I live, this Sunday morning to do some simple exercises. Even though it was 38 degrees, it did not feel as cold as I thought it would be so I was in my shorts and tank top. As I did my Shaolin soft fist qi gong, I discovered that I was surprisingly balanced and stable with my movement, especially transitioning between forms on one leg. I was all the more surprised because I had not been going to the park nor doing these exercises for a while. The only exercise I have been doing regularly is the stretching class at Brooklyn Dance Lessons. I have been going to the class for exactly a year but only now do I realize how much it has helped me. Hence, I am writing this review. Stefaniya's stretching class focuses on stretching but also strengthening various parts of your body. Her warm ups go through every part of your body, even your toes. Ha! Stefaniya's words of guidance throughout the class of what to focus on also adds more depth to the actions; I have discovered myself improving in balance and posture while building strength and flexibility. After the warm ups, it changes from class to class what we will do so the classes are never repetitive and boring. Then at the end, as we lie on the yoga mats for a cool down, Stefaniya provides a very soothing voice to bring the mind to rest alongside the body. Her soft voice throughout that part of the class encourages you to be more introspective and find your own inner peace as she offers forth various questions of existence and self. You wake up at the end feeling mentally and physically relaxed. Well, that is my experience of the class so I hope you find it useful if you are considering the various classes at the studio.

    My family had a horrible experience with BKDance Lessons. My husband and I gave our son a $399 gift…read morecard for his birthday which he could not redeem because of inexcusable customer service and absurd policies where this merchant is only look out for themselves and not their clients. My son's lesson was scheduled on a night he had a flight delay. He politely text the studio (the only way they will communicate) asking if they could push his time slot up because of his delay to which they responded no ~ he could either use whatever time was left of his 2 hour lesson that night (2 hours cost $399 which is absurd in itself) or he could take an open spot on the following day because there happened to be a cancellation. Because of prior commitments, my son could not take this spot but they offered no other option to rescheduling his lesson. When he expressed that he and his partner were really looking forward to the lesson and that no other option seemed unfair, BK Dance told him he was not allowed to come to the studio to redeem what would have been left of his 2 hour lesson because they felt threatened. My son is the most polite person in the world and his disappointment was certainly not a threat! My husband and I lost $399 down the drain because of their inability to understand the flight circumstance which was completely out of my son's control. Zero empathy was practiced and this place is a scam. When I looked more closely after hearing this extremely upsetting story, I came to see that BK Dance is not a real studio, it's just someone's apartment in Brooklyn that they push the furniture around in to make a buck and pretend to give a dance lesson. They are all actors. Go on Instagram, to see for yourself; have a good laugh and be happy I saved you the trouble of booking. Anyone looking to schedule a quality dance experience will be wasting their money and taken for a ride at BK Dance.
