My daughter loves ballet dance, we were in…read moreother school, she did great and teacher was encouraged her, every time after class she was happy and practiced at home! We thought may need to find some ACADEMICALLY for her! This class murdered small children's passion of dance! They are only two three years old, they don't know how to take the shit by let them know you are not good or you are not follow teachers! My daughter refused to go there and refused to put Tutu on, she is not twirl or plitte at home any more, she looked very sad and silent after class! The owner is horrible! Parking was nightmares! I emailed them twice to cancel my membership, you know what? They still charged from my credit card, not out of my imagination! School like this, be careful to send your little one there! You don't know what gonna happen with this school environment and this administration type!!

I had a good experience at this school in a beginner ballet class during mid-July and signed up for…read morea July 30, 8 PM belly dance class on July 29. At 4:40 PM on the day the belly dance class was scheduled, I received a "reminder" text that it was cancelled. I checked the old-school, proprietary scheduling app on the school's website and saw that my reservation was not also cancelled. I called up the school twice and spoke two different employees who said that they would move my reservation to Aug 13. They both explained that the instructor was on vacation. I noted that if the school administrators knew she would not be available on July 30, the scheduling app should have prevented me from reserving a spot for that day. The owner, Serge, said he would accomplish this task immediately after getting home, which he said would be in 15 minutes. Never happened. So, I had to contact my credit card company to reverse the charge. The school's conduct over such a simple matter as rescheduling a reservation is just baffling. And downright dishonest. What a collection of creeps. Save your money and your breath: Avoid this dance school. There are plenty of other good choices in the Valley.

I don't know where to start. I do want to say this is an incredible dance studio. My daughter has…read morebeen studying ballet for about 10 years now with almost two years so far at this studio. This place really feels like a family- the kids all support each other. Anacia is sweet, professional and available when you need her. Ms April and Ms Jen are stellar in their approach to teaching ballet. The Nutcracker performance is beautiful from choreography to costumes-gorgeous! It's a professional production put out by hard working students and their teachers. Also, the studio teaches different dance art forms. And their summer intensive programs are solid! I highly recommend this studio. We love it!

From women's gym with all their variety of classes to private lessons with a gym instructor. It was all too boring!!!! Finally, by accident, I found Claudia and her Around the World Dance Workout and I have been happy ever since. Without any exaggeration, this is the place where you can find me at least 3 times a week and I would love to be there even more often. It is FUN! The music is amazing! The dance routines are fun! This dance work out shapes you up and puts you in the mood for the entire day. Claudia, the instructor is a beautiful person. She is gentle and loving. We all absolutely adore her. The ladies that are going to these classes are a lovely group of people and we all became friendly. It is becoming a club not just for workout, but to share news and ideas among people with common interests. I have been going for the last 15 months now and enjoy every session and highly recommend to everyone who has not found the ultimate work out yet to join! Enjoy the music, the moves, the life!

We've been with Elite since 2016 between my two daughters, who both started dancing at age 3. Our…read moreoldest has moved on to other interests, but our 7-year-old continues with ballet and loves it. I've watched Elite grow from a smaller studio into the powerhouse it is today. Elite is an excellent dance studio, from day one through their very polished recitals. It's important to note that this is not a cutesy/playtime type of studio. Dance is a discipline, and so dress code and presentation are taken seriously. For first-timers, that might feel a little intimidating, but there's a reason behind it. Hair and makeup need to be spot-on for recitals, because there's always a chance your cute 3 or 4-year-old might get on stage and just stand there! But guess what? They'll look fantastic doing it. And then, year after year, you'll see their confidence and ability grow. As a parent, you will need to stay on top of recital packets to know who/what/where/when, and I find Elite to be very thorough in the material they send out, or if you simply call them ahead of time. Another perk.. they have a professional photographer who takes photos on stage and backstage at shows/recitals for FREE. As well as a videographer, which is very much appreciated. The owner, Toni, taught my oldest years ago and is fantastic, both as a teacher and as a business owner. Neither of my girls have ever been on team, but both have always enjoyed their classes. The teachers are wonderful with age-appropriate instruction (shout out to Miss Princess with the littles) and technique. My 7-year-old only takes one ballet class currently, yet she could not be more excited to be performing in The Nutcracker for her second year in a row. Needless to say, we love Elite!

I checked out the website and for $20 it was worth trying out. Artbox Studio is the most picturesque dance studio that I've ever seen. Owner Crystal Duran is an absolute doll! She's been dancing since she was 8 years old, which explains why she is so graceful and elegant on the dance floor. Crystal's energy and enthusiasm made it easy & enjoyable to learn the moves even for a novice like me. She provided step by step instructions and broke down the fundamentals. We practiced each part before combing the moves together. Once we learned the routine we took turns dancing with different partners, which was also fun. Reminded me of speed dating. LOL! I struggled a bit at first but towards the end it got easier. Crystal is a fantastic teacher. In addition to Salsa, you can also learn Bachata, Samba, Hip-hop, Ball Room, Dance Fitness, & Belly Dancing - ranging from beginning to advance. She also offers classes for kids. Prices are $20 for a single session, or you can get a package deal of 10 for $180. If you want to learn how to dance or brush up on your technique - Artbox is the place! If you want a fun night out with your friends, Cyrstal hosts a Salsa/Bachata social dance class every other Friday at The Oaks at Lakeside for $15. (Check out the website for more info & weekly class schedule artboxbyca.com)

Will I NOT literally take out my partners toes during a bachata or salsa session? Maybe. That's all because Crystal was such a motivated and fun teacher that gives you the basics and let's you find your own rhythm. Thank you for the opportunity. It's a beautiful small dance studio in Encino that brought joy and enthusiasm to the art of dancing. Def recommend if you want to really give it your all on the dance floor. We all start somewhere!!

I would say take some private lessons first if you are a beginner like me. I didn't even know the ABCs of Salsa and Bachata, and taking private lessons definitely helped. After I got little comfortable with it, I started taking the group choreo classes. The group classes are fun and great way to be comfortable with dancing with strangers. After couple group classes, went to social dancing which was terrifying but had to do it if I ever wanna become a decent dancer lol. Overall this is a great place to learn new choreo or start from scratch.
