look no further, this is it for R&B. I took the R&B class here for months and it was pure fire. I…read morewould take a two hour drive all the way from Malibu to get here, the only conflict recently is that I now work closing hours . As a dude that is whiter then sour cream and can't dance to anything this helped me become a much better dancer. I wanted to try R&B since I have found it fascinating on social media the attention it gets and it's a great way to impress the ladies without saying a word. It's like a combination of slow hip hop and breakdancing. It feels daunting in the beginning but Rey walks you through all the steps and explains the technique behind each individual complex move. He takes a move that looks impossible to do and he makes it possible to do for an average guy like me. I would without a doubt call Alejandro Rey the Royce Gracie of R&B since he truly has a deep love for the music and you can clearly see that through his teaching. He doesn't only instruct but he travels and performs R&B consistently around the country so there is no better teacher you could ask for since he is always sharpening his skills. Never had a mundane class, each one is unique and you will always learn something new to add onto your dance tool belt. One thing I like about Rey is that he will change a move on the spot to fit the music. You will learn a complex R&B routine and if one detail is off or can be made better Rey will throw in some really cool move so there is no wasted space in the song. Also you will see professional R&B dancers taking the class with you. It's kind of a trip because you will see these guys on tiktok or instagram weeks prior and on a Wednesday night they're right next to you in class learning from the best. R&B also bleeds into other areas of dance and builds confidence within yourself because it's not easy to perform in front of others. When you consistently show up you get consistently better and slowly you consistently becoming more confident with yourself since you are doing stuff you never thought you would be able to do. For me that was the most important aspect since I started talking to people (ladies) that I was too shy to talk to before. Also I know that I can do a dance most guys have a hard time doing but Rey was able to guide me through the weeds of it. Lastly Rey has couple R&B which is the perfect date. Take your lady here and the car ride home will be much different.

We signed up our daughter for Monday night beginners folklorico through the city. Classes were great. Good instructor. Repetitive and age appropriate. The business is FULL OF HIDDEN FEES. The registration is 40 dollars. Okay, great! Right? We show up and they say it'll be another 160 for shoes, skirt, undershorts and hair net. Red flag, but fine. We paid it. Then for the performance they say we need a DIFFERENT SKIRT- which apparently they also charged for. I would not know because it was not communicated to me that the girls need to match. I asked what type of dress would be needed and where to purchase. They said olvera street for about 200. Okay, my daughter is invested so fine. No biggie. We show up to performance and EVERYONE ELSE HAD MATCHING SKIRTS. It was NEVER communicated to me. So my daughter performed in a different outfit. They charged us for a studio danza shirt and another white shirt. There are SO MANY HIDDEN FEES AND RED FLAGS ABOUT THIS PLACE! Small space for a lot of children and families. Many parents find themselves sitting on the floor. Luisa is nice and the instructor is great, but I think the whole thing is shady. I will not be returning to this studio. If you can find another place to do Folklorico- do it. I don't mean to be so direct and mean, but I want to help other families not make the same mistakes I did.

My husband couldn't find the location and he was told they couldn't talk and hang up on him. To many details but I'll start with the most important ones. 1. It was the wrong location apparently they moved and didn't bother to tell the city to update the information. 2. The establishment has no running Air conditioning or ventilation. 3. The dance studio is small and kids barely have room to move. 4. Staff is rude and not welcoming. Do yourself a favor and don't sign up to establishment and save yourself a huge disappointment.

First, let's get this straight: I've been dancing here for over a year, and the subsequent comments…read moreare from my personal experiences. Alohi's is ran mostly by a close knit, family-like group of people. There are several dance instructors for various styles of dancing, including Polynesian, jazz, hip hop, and Zumba. The instructors are kind and friendly, and class availability is offered six times a week. They perform all around OC and LA, including at many charity events. The studio itself has plentiful space to dance, and sufficient seating to watch your kids/significant other/whatever. If all the couches happen to be full, then there's more of an excuse to join in the dancing! Every single student (dancers/performers) I've become acquainted with have been kind and friendly. There is virtually no drama, and the aura is quite passive. The instructors stress perfection and may come across as strict at times, but that's normal for any passionate teacher. Having no basis for comparison, Alohi's isn't perfect; no person is; no studio is. However I do believe this is a fantastic environment to be in to learn/improve on whatever dance you're interested in. I really enjoy being surrounded by the people encompassing this studio, and I encourage whoever is reading this to cultivate their curiosity by stopping by this studio. I don't think you'll regret it!

Let me start by saying this: I never write Yelp reviews. I'm honestly lazy when it comes to things…read morelike this, but today's experience at CrossFit Whittier was good enough to make me sit down and write one. I normally train six days a week at la fitness, I have a coach and a nutrition plan, but I always work out alone. Lately, I've felt like my training just isn't enough, especially as I prepare for LAPD. Yesterday during lapd training, we all got smoked. It was embarrassing and a big wake up call, that we're not as prepared as we think we are. This morning, I woke up around 8:30 AM planning my usual long training day, but my gym closed early for the holiday, which frustrated me. Another cadet had told me before, "You should try CrossFit," but she was in last place during our run, so I brushed it off. But after talking to more people, I realized maybe she was right, maybe CrossFit is exactly what we need to improve our conditioning, especially running, which is one of my biggest weaknesses. So I decided to call CrossFit Whittier. Steven picked up. I explained my goals and what I'm preparing for. He didn't try to sell me anything, didn't pressure me, didn't hit me with "you need to sign up first" he simply said, "Come check it out. Come get a workout for free." I showed up, introduced myself, and he showed me around. He put me through a workout, and honestly? It wasn't enough for me, I wanted more. So he gave me an extra workout to do, even though it was Thanksgiving and even though the gym was technically closed. That small extra session kicked my butt in the best way possible and made me realize I was in the right place. What stood out to me the most was that he didn't rush me, didn't send me home, and didn't act like his time was more important. He stayed with me to make sure I was doing the movements correctly. No other business owner would have done that on a holiday. He also gave me a law enforcement discount, which I truly appreciated. I left feeling grateful, motivated, and honestly excited to come back. I'm looking forward to training here every day, getting to know everyone, helping where I can, and pushing myself to be better. Even though today was my first day, this review should show you that the experience was meaningful enough for me to write all this. If one day was this good, I can only imagine what the rest is going to be like. The short workout I did here was already better and more humbling than anything I've done recently at my regular gym. I absolutely recommend CrossFit Whittier to anyone, especially if you're preparing for law enforcement, military, or simply looking to push your limits the right way.
