I've tried calling and leaving several messages on their 1980s-quality answering machine. Nobody ever called back. I'm not so sure these people are still in business. And if they are, maybe they're running a money laundering operation because it seems that they have absolutely no interest in actually conducting the business they claim their in which, I believe, is offering dance lessons. If you like being ignored and frustrated, then I highly recommend attempting to reach out to these people who have no customer service skills or professionalism to speak of.

They offer a variety of dances, they are patient, and enjoy teaching and they have lots of events and classes throughout the week. We highly recommend the Arthur Murray dance studio in Valencia on Newhall Road! Dancing at this studio with the instructors and owners feels like family!

Ballroom dance lessons at D'Wilfri are checking off a lot of boxes I didn't realize were open. I…read moretake both classes and private lessons from Wil and Ingrid. Full disclosure, as of this writing, I am about to turn 59 years old and January marked my two year anniversary at the studio. My previous dance experience is zero. As a high schooler I participated in the marching band and all the plays. As an adult I was busy raising a family. I often use the #TarablyAwkward on my social media because grace is not intrinsically mine. An unidentified part of me was missing--an outlet, an expression--that surreptitiously appeared in class one day in front of that wall-to-ceiling mirror in their studio. I cried because my soul was showing and the vulnerability was too much too soon. I had started lessons because I'm a huge fan of "Dancing With The Stars" and I wanted "to do that!" I hadn't anticipated that an innocent decision to take dance lessons instead of pickleball or golf would put me on a path I should have been on my entire life. I'm not going to sugar coat here and pretend that in two years I've mastered ballroom dance. I did not grow up with cultural or familial dancing. My music background is rock and country. So for me, the learning curve has been tremendous. The classes and private lessons at D'Wilfri have introduced me to the various rhythms of Latin music. I'm learning how to talk to my different body parts so they do what I want instead of performing their own solo. I'm learning balance and technique and dance steps like salsa, cha cha cha, rhumba, bachata, Viennese waltz, tango, merengue, cumbia, mambo, jive, hustle, etc. I'm even learning how to cha cha to classic rock music! So fun!!! Most importantly, dance at D'Wilfri is teaching me how to be me. The hardest lesson to learn is to be comfortable being a learner in an environment where everyone is at a different level. Like, when you walk into class and see fringe skirts and think, "Oh my god, what am I doing here!" We cannot compare our beginning to someone else's ending. Ingrid has taught me to fight for my personal expression, my confidence, my strength, my passion, and beauty. She curates the classes to increase our skills and raise us to the next challenge. I spent the first year in classes scratching my head, like, "What are they doing? I don't get it, I can't keep up." Patience! It's ok to be a learner. It's wonderful to allow yourself to be in a position to grow. Wil and Ingrid are incredible. They are professional dancers with a long, interesting history of performing. The care, the professionalism, the expertise, and the creativity they bring to their classes and private lessons is limitless. They are so patient with every student and so passionate about meeting each student where they are. They encourage their students in a way that passes the inspiration of movement to everyone that walks into their studio, regardless of skill level or goals. And speaking of goals...some people come for the exercise and some people come to compete. Some people come to learn a wedding dance. Sometimes a group of ladies will come to celebrate a birthday with a line dancing class. All are welcome and encouraged. D'Wilfri--Wil and Ingrid--has changed the trajectory of my life in so many ways. Not just in physical health but also in mental health; it's the ultimate freedom of dancing like people ARE watching and enjoying what I have to offer. That's what was missing that I found in class that day in front of the big mirror: I needed to give myself permission to be on the dance floor, to feel the joy, without feeling embarrassed or ashamed like I have to wait because I'm not good enough yet. Even though I still scratch my head and utter a few curse words because I don't understand how to move my hips or properly transfer my weight, Wil and Ingrid are teaching me to slow down and be patient with what I have to offer RIGHT NOW and to spread the joy of dance in my soul, not just on the dance floor but in my everyday life. I am forever grateful to them. I highly recommend this studio and I can't wait to see you in class!

We just came to have fun there was no free play. I don't believe she smiled once. I get someone having an off day but that is when you professionally apologize. We drove 2 hours to deal with her stale attitude. After about 45 minutes of her bad vibe I stopped and was stretching and her response was you have about 15 minutes if you are done let me get you out of your harness and you guys can go. We paid $150 for a two person class and after asked if there was a water fountain and she said no but you can buy water for $1. Really $150 and you can't comp a bottle of your off brand generic water?!!! So what to know if she's having a good day ... She has different harnesses some are more comfortable than others. I would not recommend the class if you are looking for fun. I could see it being good for someone who is looking for technique.

The way I'm already loving my experience at this school is insane! I've background in the…read moreentertainment business (over 20 years) so to have this gem in my neighborhood and not have to go allll the way to LA/Hollywood is a blessing in disguise. My youngest son is a natural performer and although he has an agent, prior to enrollment, I began to take notice that he really needed to gain more confidence and truly learn and cultivate his skill set. I'd driven past this location so many times over the years and even knew tons of kids who attended but never inquired. I'd always thought SCV is so off the grid what do they know about Hollywood? just another company taking peoples money claiming they have all these connections getting folks hopes up. But after wanting to yank my hair out managing my son's auditions I decided I go check them out. And I would have never imagined how one decision could change the trajectory of my thinking and open up so many opportunity. I will say, if you attempt to get pricing info over the phone, that's not gonna happen. You will be directed to Mike Josten, the owner. He's been in business over 20 years in the city, please feel free to check out his accreditations with the City (like Chamber of Commerce, etc.). It's a business people, I've seen comments like "he's a Salesman" but if you already have your mind set to buy something .. you will and if you don't, you won't. You can't blame a business owner for doing his job selling his business. You came to him. He's not scouting and cold calling. Mike was everything I'd imagined. High energy, friendly, passionate and so so encouraging. I've never met a stranger so kind, he's funny too and just really wanting to help support peoples dreams. And that all truly mattered to me. Without a doubt this school is it. When you see comments saying everyone in there gives a family vibe, it's true. All the students love Mike! He jokes and laughs with them, they respect him and everyone PERFORMS. And The teachers get to it! They supply the trainings, and resources all the way up to helping you land an agent. There are legit SAG/AFTRA agents that scout EVERY SAT at the school. Being on the business side of the entertainment business, I know this place is a powerhouse for anyone wanting to take their craft serious and are really looking to get out there. You just have to bring your skill set and show up! Put in the work. I love it, and I don't think I've ever been so grateful to a team of people for supporting me and my baby side by side and also breathing life back into my own dreams and aspirations!

She enjoys the acting classes, the voice overs, teen runway, on-camera scene practices, etc. She loves it, loves it, LOVES it!!! To add on, she has made some great friends already in the 2 months that she has been here. She just participated in a fashion show, so this place keeps her BUSY! The teachers are awesome. They are encouraging and kind. All of the instructors have professional backgrounds and it's wonderful that they are sharing it with our kids. There are agents that come weekly looking for talent. SCSOPA is preparing her for a shot in the industry! We also see her confidence building. She has met with a couple agents and is wanted by both. We will see;). Mike, the owner is warm, hilarious, and full of energy. Mike and his team are passionate about the kids and their future in show biz. So far, we believe this is the best thing we have done for our daughter so far.
